PreSchool-Grade 3 The pair who dreamed up Piggie Pie (Clarion, 1995) are back with a pun-filled adventure involving an oversized, hapless ape trying to find his niche in the world. The Big Guy can't seem to get a break as a door-to-door salesbeast for Ape-On Cosmetics. Moving to the Big Apple is a step in the right direction. Adults will get the humor more than kids Ape-On is a takeoff of Avon, the training manual is reminiscent of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, and the ape is shown demonstrating his wares on a mascara-ed Statue of Liberty. Yet, youngsters should have no problem identifying him with King Kong. The puns tend to wear a tad thin, but the creative use of typesetting goes along with the humorous, right-on illustrations to keep the story moving, maintaining a larger-than-life feel. All in all, it's hard not to like this gigantic, bespectacled, dweebish primate. Readers and storytime attendees will cheer when he finally finds his place in life on a Hollywood set, no less.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Ding Dong Ding Dong is a very funny book. We like the way Margie Palatini put lots of jokes in the book using plays on words and puns. She also uses lots of alliteration to make it a fun book to read and listen to. Howard Fine's illustrations are terrific. We especially liked the part when the ape climbed the Empire State Building. We won't tell what happened next, but we loved it! Our class recommends this book to children and adults of all ages. |
