From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| PreS. Two board books that are not suitable for the target audience of this format?infants and toddlers. The texts, while minimal enough to fit their attention spans, are not appropriate for either storytime or one-on-one sharing. A Fishy Melodrama begins with the following lines: "I'm sick of being a cute little goldfish! I want to be a big tough shark...so I can scare all the children! RrrrrAaAah!" The last two lines conclude that it is all right just to be a goldfish. Similarly, in A Mouse's Reality Check, a tiny mouse wishes that he were an enormous elephant. When the rodent is chased by a cat, he is able to hide in his hole and finds that it is better to be small. This type of message is for older children and is beyond the grasp of the typical board-book audience. The illustrations miss the mark as well. Both covers feature cutout shapes showing a scowling fish or mouse against a stark black background. The primitive-looking pictures seem too mature for young audiences. They feature frowning, grumpy looking animals. Better board books abound. Stick with titles by Jan Ormerod or Shirley Hughes for this audience. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| This book and the Fishy Melodrama are great and very much appropriate for children of all ages. I have used it in my Pre-K class and in my current fourth grade; and the students all related and enjoyed the story very MUCH!! I even had one student (in the Pre-K class) state the he was "like the fish" upon finishing the Fishy Melodrama. They are perfect stories for children to understand that it's always best to be just the way you are.
