PreSchool-Grade 2—Told in verse that rolls along with the momentum of a boat upon a merry sea, this tale of a confused stork teaches that "jumbled up" families can be the best families of all. While soaring across the sky one evening, Webster the stork collides with a hot-air balloon, knocking his brain "out of whack." Soon, frog parents find themselves raising an elephant baby, sharks welcome a chirping chick, and spiders learn to care for a not-so-petite monkey. Apparently accident-prone, Webster is struck by lightning shortly after and regains his senses, only to be horrified at his mistaken deliveries. He calls in an army of storks to help put things to rights, but quickly realizes that each family loves its child despite the obvious differences between parents and offspring. Munsinger's simple watercolors of smiling creatures keep the tone sweet and foreshadow the happy ending, even when readers may fear that "normal" will prevail. Libraries will find a market for this affirmation of unconventional families, though younger listeners who simply love a good animal tale will find much to appreciate here as well. The Thunderstruck Stork is sure to draw discussion, and is best shared between parent and child. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
"The Thunderstruck Stork" by David J Olson is a whimsical entertaining childrens book about how love and family can fix any "mistake." This is a wonderful new author and we look forward to reading more. His first book "Lazy Daisy" was another winner. My grandchildren learn valuable lessons about life and at the same time giggle their way through each amusing tale. Filled with fun loving,colorful characters,these books are sure to win the hearts of grandchildren everywhere. |
