Overview / 简介: |
Meet Jack.
He's almost six years old. And that's almost grown up.
After all, he can almost ride a big bike just like his older brother. And he almost never gets scared.
This spunky little almost-six-year-old is ready to take on the world.
Well, almost.
Richard Torrey's sweetly funny tale is sure to resonate with any child who just can't wait to be big.

From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
Young kids dream of being as powerful as their older siblings, and at “almost six,” Jack is almost there––except almost means he still messes up quite a bit. He almost rides his big brother’s bicycle, but he ends up crashing into the garbage can, much to his brother’s fury. When Jack almost makes his own breakfast, a gallon of milk spills everywhere, and smoke from the burned toast fills the kitchen. He tries to build a robot, but somehow the remote does not work. Each lively double-page scenario, in pencil lines and bright watercolors, shows a child’s universal dreams, as well as the warm particulars of one kid’s failure, which culminate when Jack almost hits the winning home run, but ducks to avoid the ball at the critical moment. He almost never cries, but when he feels sad, Mom’s warm hug is reassuring. Preschoolers, especially younger siblings, will recognize Jack’s longing for power. Preschool-Kindergarten. --Hazel Rochman |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
This is a great book for early readers. The illustrations are beautiful and the story is uplifting. I've bought multiple copies for my younger nieces and nephews and for my friends' kids. The author has other books out there that are also fun reading including the Beans Baker series. All good stuff! |
