From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
PreS-Widget is a stray dog-homeless, cold, wet, and hungry. He finds his way to a warm, cozy home but then has to exercise all his ingenuity to convince the six female felines in residence to accept him. With a light and humorous touch, text and illustrations charm readers as Widget charms the cats by pretending to be one of them. The funniest spreads are of Widget and "the girls" facing off all puffed up, then hissing and spitting. The pup quickly realizes that purring, playing, and even using the litter box is the ticket into this household. In the end, the cats accept him on his own terms-as a dog-since it is barking, not meowing, that saves the day after a mishap suffered by their human guardian, Mrs. Diggs. Illustrations, apparently watercolors, are detailed and realistic with cartoon touches that add to the humor, as when six pairs of cats' eyes are all turned toward Widget, whose own wide eyes are trained in turn on them. This is a preschool crowd pleaser, just right for storytime. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
The husband and wife writer and illustrator of "The Pirate's Parrot" team up again for a humorous tale of animals and adventure. Little Widget is a stray dog seeking shelter and food. He finds the home of Miss Diggs and her six cats. Miss Diggs wants him to stay, but the cats hate dogs. To gain acceptance of the cats, Widget acts like a cat, purring and using the litter box. The cats welcome him, but Widget must act like a dog again to find help when Miss Diggs falls ill. The cats are pleased when Widget brings people to help, and ultimately accept him as a dog. |
