From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| PreSchool-Grade 2–A wonderful and touching tribute to the love that grandparents have for their grandchildren. On each spread, an adorable young pig describes what he or she enjoys doing with Grandpa: "Grandpa loves/bare feet and bagels./Coffee with cream./Flipping the pancakes/and mornings/with me." The illustrations alternate between scenes that chronicle everyday activities, from camping to building a tree house, and snapshots of these special times arranged as if in a photo album. The facial expressions show just how much the family members enjoy being together. In the final picture, a smiling Grandpa shares a meal with all of the grandchildren featured on the previous pages. Painted in soft, warm colors, the artwork adds greatly to the feeling of love that pervades this book.–Sheilah Kosco, Rapides Parish Library, Alexandria, LA |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| Our young reviewers enjoyed this sweet story about a grandpa and his grandkids, and agreed that this read-aloud for young children will make the listener feel good. Including both grandsons and granddaughters allowed each kindergartener to identify with one or more of the interests the pair shares-fishing, hiking, camping, singing, reading. Although some would have preferred lengthening the narrative with swimming, tennis, baseball, and corny joke telling, most of these five- and six-year-olds thought this short tale was long enough to convey the love between the generations. The rhyming text and repeating phrase, "with me," were a hit with our students, as were the photo album styled ink-and-watercolor illustrations. The predictable ending disappointed discriminating audience members, who suggested introducing the grandmother on the last page to add an element of surprise.
