PreSchool-K—Biggie Bear's soccer-playing friends appear at his doorstep with a size XXL shirt, begging him to join them, since Brown Dog has fleas and can't play. Biggie is a jazz fan who collects stamps, but his lack of experience on the field takes a backseat to the fact that he looks good in the team color. Despite his athletic shortcomings, the score is tied until the bear bends over to grasp a rare stamp on the ground and heads the ball into the net for the winning goal. Biggie returns to the field after that, but always as an enthusiastic fan. Kolar's soccer story is just rollicking enough for listeners, despite the stereotypical minor characters—Smelly Smell Skunk, Scared Rabbit, Twirly Squirrel, etc. The large format facilitates sharing the book with groups. Digital cartoons of rounded figures with exaggerated features are brightly hued and presented in detailed scenes that are balanced with less complex spreads. This simple tale that encourages trying things out of one's comfort zone will capture prospective players too young or wiggly for longer reads like Jonathan London's Froggy Plays Soccer (Viking, 1999). |

Biggie the bear is asked to fill in on a soccer team and even though it turns out he's not a good player, he makes some good friends. My 2 1/2 year old daughter and I read a lot of books together and I knew as soon as we started this one that it was just right. It has the perfect combination of appealing illustrations, simple but interesting text, and a cute story with a nice message. It's easy for her to understand, but there's enough for me to explain (like the main character's hobbies of stamp collecting and listening to jazz, and the basic concepts of team sports) to make for interesting conversation. She is really taken with the characters and makes up things for them to say to each other. We just got the book yesterday and have read it at least six times so far--and I'm not tired of it yet! A winner. |
