From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
Kindergarten-Grade 2–Ann Estelle is hoping for the part of the Queen in the class play. After all, "She already had a long red velvet robe and a glittery golden crown, just in case something like this ever came up." Instead, her teacher makes her the stage manager because she is so "clever and responsible." Ann Estelle pushes aside her disappointment and rescues the actors during the performance as they forget their lines, misplace their props, etc. The writing is stilted, and efforts to provide emphasis by putting certain words or phrases into a fancier font only highlight the stiffness of the rest of the text. Ann Estelle herself is as two dimensional as the paper dolls included at the back of the book, and the relentless brightness of the colors in the artwork is as tedious as the story. For a fresher take on class dramatics, look to Alexander Stadler's Beverly Billingsley Takes a Bow (Harcourt, 2003) or Cari Best's Shrinking Violet (Farrar, 2001).–Grace Oliff, Ann Blanche Smith School, Hillsdale, NJ |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Ann Estelle's class is putting on a play. Ann Estelle hopes that she can play the part of the queen. She thinks she perfect for the part, she already has a crown and a robe. The teacher tells her that she will play the part of the stage manager. At first she doesn't like the job because she doesn't think it's important. As the show goes on she play a very important role. The queen has gone on stage with out her sword that she must use to fight the dragon. Ann Estelle thinks fast and runs on stage as a servant to give the queen her sword. She has saved the play!
