From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| PreSchool-Grade 1—In this swampy tale set "'neath the fat gold moon," a boy describes what he repeatedly hears: "Splish splash, rumba-rumba, bim bam BOOM!" With shaking hands and a pounding heart, he races through the "sludgy slime" with the mysterious creature at his heels before taking refuge in the branches of a willow tree. The boy's siblings come to retrieve him, followed by two cousins, but all end up high in the tree out of reach of the monster. Then just within arm's grasp of their dreaded adversary, the boy's mother calls for everyone to return; she understands all too well a kid's playful imagination and orders everyone, including "the monster," to get home and take a bath before bed. Lively, colorful cartoon characters set in inky black or deep blue moonlit scenes and offset by crisp, white pages add energy and suspense to the story. The repetitive chorus, a simple rhyming story line that will draw readers in, and the perennial appeal of books that are just "scary" enough make this title an appropriate addition.—Marian Creamer, Children's Literature Alive, Portland, OR |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| This book is so fun, I am Pta president at my childrens school and our school just had Kristyn Crow come for a all day presentation it was amazing the rhyming and rythm of her books are so fun my children who are 8,10,12 all loved both of her books. They listened to her speak today and also got their books autographed I would recommend her books for anyone with Children. The little boy on the cover of this book looks a lot like the illustrator and has admitted it's him to Mrs.Crow. She was amazing and so are her books. I can't wait for the middle child blues to come out as I will be purchaseing it for my middle childs birthday. Also has another book coming soon called the skeleton cat it looks really cute. You can't go wrong with Kristyn Crow books. |
