Grade 2-4-In this beginning chapter book, Codie is about to become a cousin. Her favorite aunt is two weeks away from giving birth and, though she's been pregnant before, "This is the closest she's come to a baby full done." This overnight visit at Aunt Alix's is different from the numerous others, because in the middle of the night the woman goes into labor. The child's anxiety over the birth and her worries about losing her special place in Alix's life are handled sensitively and realistically. Hesse incorporates a touch of symbolism with the blanket that the girl is sewing for the infant Lavender-a finished blanket will insure a full-term, healthy baby. The simple language allows for easy reading, and the full-page pencil illustrations break up the text nicely. Codie is a caring youngster eager to please, even when experiencing some doubts about the arrival of her first cousin. A fresh, gentle approach to a standard theme. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
THIS INSPIRED STORY IS GREAT FOR CHILDREN OF THE AGES 8 AND YOUNGER. THE STORY OF LAVENDER IS ONE OF A SMALL GIRL WHOSE AUNT (MY REAL-LIFE AUNT) IS PREGNANT (WITH MY REAL-LIFE COUSIN). THE GIRL IS HAPPY FOR HER AUNT BUT IS AFRAID THAT WHEN THE BABY COMES THERE WILL BE NO TIME LEFT FOR HER AND HER AUNT TO BE TOGETHER. THIS STORY IS ONE TO BE SHARED WITH ANY SMALL CHILD WHOSE MOM IS PREGNANT AND SEEMS UNSURE OF WHAT A NEW BABY WILL MEAN FOR THEM. IT IS HEARTWARMIMG AND ALLOWS THE READER TO GO INSIDE THE CHARACTER'S MIND TO HER PRIVATE THOUGHTS. |
