Overview / 简介: |
The cupboard is bare! Donkey doesn't have time to shop, so Goat volunteeers. Donkey makes a list because Goat is one to get in a muddle: rosy apples, juicy carrots, crunchy cabbages, and strawberry ice cream. Yet when Goat gets to the market, he can't quite read the list. Surely, it's a sun hat that Donkey wants, and a blow-up octopus, and perhaps that golden trumpet. The last item has has something to do with strawberries, so he buys a berry-decorated pair of sunglasses. Once home, Goat is a bit embarrassed when he learns he has totally muddled dinner, but Donkey is delighted with the purchases anway. The last spread shows them eating drippy ice cream cones. The premise is slight, but the execution is delightful. Inventive designs and fruity colors in vibrant tones set against lots of ocean blues make this a pleasure to look at. Still, it is goofy Goat, always smiling, who steals the show. Children, who can get in a muddle themselves, will feel the kinship in this story as sweet and silly as its title. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
PreSchool-Grade 1—Two best friends have funny, slice-of-life adventures. In Strawberry Sunglasses, Goat offers to do the grocery shopping. Donkey writes out a list just in case his pal gets in a forgetful "muddle." At the market, Goat is distracted by many wonderful things to buy and instead of bringing home food, he giddily returns with a sun hat, blow-up octopus, trumpet, and strawberry sunglasses. Donkey makes the best of the situation, enjoys the impulse purchases, and then heads back to the market for supper, hand-in-hand with his buddy. In Great Outdoors, Goat decides to take a vacation, but needs advice on where to go. After much negotiation, he announces he wants to go to a place "Just Like Here." He pitches a tent in the garden but soon misses the company of Donkey. They both squish in and enjoy the getaway together. Julian's warm oil paintings capture the sunny dispositions of the characters. Children will enjoy Goat's exuberant innocence and Donkey's patient good humor.—Linda Ludke, London Public Library, Ontario, Canada |
