Prairie girl picture book em Name that Book (Novembro 2011)

Críticas

A delightful book with 5 fun stories! The illustration is beautiful! I love just staring at the page. I especially liked the last story where Maudie is telling a story which is illustrated in small boxes at the top of the page. I highly recommend this gorgeous book.

The illustrations are beautiful; I'll definitely be looking for more books featurong Freya Blackwood's artwork. But I really dislike Maudie and the way she interacts with Bear. I imagine their relationship is supposed to represent the way many children interact with their parents, but I just don't like it.

In this wordless companion to Sunshine, a little girl has dinner with her family, takes a bath, and prepares for bed: Mom combs her hair, and Dad reads her a story and kisses her goodnight. But the girl needs a glass of water and a hug from Mom...and then a hug from Dad, who falls asleep in her bed while she remains awake. The girl gets out of bed, puts on her slippers, and joins her mom in reading a book on the couch. Eventually, the two of them fall asleep, the dad wakes up and carries the girl back to bed, and he and the mom return to the couch and fall asleep together.

A perfect bedtime book. The trim size - same as Sunshine - is on the small side, with a landscape orientation to show sequential movement; there are as many as six panels on a single page.
