Overview / 简介: |
| When Lisa takes Corduroy to the theater for the very first time, it’s so magnificent and exciting that he just can’t help heading out on his own to explore. From the orchestra pit to the prop table to the dressing rooms, Corduroy sees it all. Could there be a place for Corduroy on stage, too? |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| "Perhaps the book's most valuable visual aspect is featuring people of color in all elements of the theater, from Lisa and her mother, of course, to the orchestra pit, stage manager, and actors . . . A sweet story that will have children clamoring to see a show, perhaps with their own bears." |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| Wow. This is incredibly well done. I was so excited to see that Corduroy is back! I was slightly hesitant given that there was a new author.... Well, probably no surprise to many that Viola Davis was stunningly brilliant here. I really hope she keeps writing children’s books!!!
The story builds on and fully honors Don Freeman’s legacy. There’s a humility in that which I so appreciate. And the setting is Viola Davis’s expertise- the theater.
Two things I love in particular. 1- This story is also timeless. Lisa, her mother, and Corduroy go to the theater. And the play is Mother Goose. Timeless. This classic will endure forever. 2- The visuals put forward a bold and optimistic view of the future of theater. People of color are participating and leading at every level- audience, actors, orchestra, operations. In an industry that has been so much a part of white dominant culture, this is refreshing. As a modern classic, it can help reset expectations for the next generation.
Thank you Viola Davis! More books please!!! |
