: Random House 出版的绘本类分级读物，每本书 32 页，图画都无可挑剔，故事幽默（fun stories and colorful art），故事主角都是那些最受孩子欢迎的，比如：Dora(朵拉)，Thomas 小火车，Berenstain Bears(贝贝熊), Disney 的公主、Mickey 等卡通形象或者超可爱的小猫、小狗、小鸭子等小动物。这套书的另一个特点，是其图画幽默，即便是一级读物，文字量很少，但是完全用图画也能把幽默表现的淋漓尽致。其中的 Phonics Reader 部分则同时也是训练 Phonics 的好书，有趣的故事中通过押韵反复训练一些元音及元音的组合.

Overview / 简介: |
"I wish I had wings." The white unicorn can heal wounds with his horn. He can make rainbows. But what he really wants is to fly. So he sets off on a quest--past birds and butterflies--to find wings of his own.
A charming Step 2 title with a ton of girl appeal. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| Kindergarten-Grade 1—In overly cute illustrations, filled with rainbows, flowers, and butterflies, and simple text, beginning readers meet a unicorn that can fix things with his magical horn. However, he is unhappy because he does not have wings. He asks the birds, butterflies, and swans for wings but, of course, none of these animals can share. He falls asleep on the beach and when he wakes up he sees a winged horse with an injured wing and heals it with his horn. The cured animal leaves, and the unicorn wishes again for wings. He looks in the water and (surprise, surprise) he has them. This title is not going to fly with children. Even the ever-popular unicorn will not save it. It is just too precious and there isn't enough plot to hold their attention |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| First, what I like about the book: the pictures are engaging; my five-year-old daughter likes the book; and the text is set in a big font with easy-to-read words.
Now the part that I did not like.... The first 75 % of the book shows this unicorn wishing that he had wings. The winged animals that he encounters point out that their wings would not be appropriate for him to have. Then, he is given the opportunity to do a uniquely unicorn thing -- he heals a pegasus horse with his horn. At this point in the story, it seemed clear (at least to me) that the message of the book was going to be: each of us is unique, with certain abilities. The butterfly, swan, and bluebird have the gift of flight (because of their wings). Likewise, the unicorn has the gift of healing (because of his horn). And, by analogy, the child reading the book has special gifts, too, but they are not the same as the bird, the butterfly, or the unicorn.
Perhaps I should give the writer credit for 'zigging' when I was expecting a 'zag'.... Nevertheless, the story's 'zig' results in a story without a purpose. The unicorn gets what he wants (wings) because he has a healing horn. So much for the butterfly and birds being special.... I don't get it.
All that being said, young girls will like it, and I predict none with experience lasting moral damage from this book. |
