Overview / 简介: |
What do Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's Eve, Presidents' Day, Valentine's Day, Cinco de Mayo, and Flag Day have in common? Find out by letting Lenny and Mel take you on a journey through the holidays. See what it takes to be a good student, get fascinating Halloween costume ideas, lose those unsightly leftovers, and pretty much tackle any holiday that fall, winter, or spring can throw at you. Well, maybe not any holiday. But several. Definitely several. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
Kraft's (Chocolatina) spirited if uneven tale introduces impish twins who concoct their own zany holiday celebrations. In a chapter about Halloween, Lenny pastes candy wrappers all over himself and goes trick-or-treating as the floor of a movie theater, but a neighbor who misses these subtleties labels Lenny "Trash Day." The description of a New Year's Eve spent trying to stay awake to watch the ball drop in Times Square lacks zing. But readers will chuckle when the twins, tired of eating leftovers after Thanksgiving, stuff the remaining turkey under Mel's pillow so that the Leftover Fairy (who sails through the air in his gravy boat) will take it and leave them cash. On Christmas Eve, deciding that Santa is a vegetarian ("That way, the reindeer don't think he's going to eat them"), the two leave him a snack of a block of cheese decorated with lights and twigs from the tree, which Santa decides to use as a sled ornament. This light caper will hit third-graders' sense of humor dead on, but it's likely to tickle the funny bones of kids more apt to be found plotting a prank than reading a book. Kraft's deadpan cartoon-panel drawings, however, may well get even nonreaders in on the laughs. Ages 7-10. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
This book is great! A lot of kids should read it! Parents, if you have a kid who can read get it for that kid! Read it yourself too, it's funny! My favorite part is when they use raisins instead of candy in the pinatas. |

Erik P. Kraft lives in Boston and is nothing at all like Lenny or Mel. Oh no. Not at all. He doesn't know what you're talking about. |
