Overview / 简介: |
When Penguin gets pooped on by a goose flying by, he becomes more determined than ever to learn to fly. So, with the help of his other flightless friends (aka the Waddlers), the foursome builds a flying machine that takes them on an adventure like none they've ever known.
With a cast of quirky, can-do characters that young readers are sure to love, Flight of the Dodo is a comic adventure story about the desire to fly, the persistence to dream big, and poop! |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| Kindergarten-Grade 2–Penguin is having a fine day until a flying goose lets loose on his jacket. Reminded that he is restricted to the ground and that the Flappers get to have all the fun, the Waddler summons other flightless birds–Ostrich, Kiwi, and Cassowary–and convinces them of the need to invent a flying machine. Once aloft in their hot-air balloon, Penguin finally felt the thrill of target pooping. The straightforward text shows the various sounds and noises either in capitals–SPLAT–or in a wavy line to indicate the flying and floating in the sky. Colorful acrylic-and-pencil illustrations not only add humor–worms are shown squirming out of Penguin's sandwich by day, and the birds sport flight goggles–but also depict trouble–the sky turns a blackish-purple when a thunderstorm hits. In a turnabout of fate, Penguin poops on the geese to get their attention and the kindhearted Flappers facilitate the rescue of the Waddlers. Pair this book with other titles about unlikely friendships for a theme about learning from others.–Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VA

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| It is rare to find a book that can appeal to such a large audience. To children, the message is clear, positive, and entertaining. To humorous adults, it's just plain funny and a joy to read repeatedly. And to art critics, Peter Brown's work in this book is museum-worthy! Buy this book as a gift for anyone who fits these categories, and remember to pick one up for yourself! |
