Overview / 简介: |
Harry was born with no left hand. When he got to school, the kids asked him what was wrong with his arm. "Nothing," said Harry. "That's my prosthesis." Harry's hand didn't keep him from being a good baseball player -- or a good friend. Harry and Willy and Carrothead are three of the most real kids you are apt to meet between book covers, and you will like them as much as they like each other!

From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
PreSchool-Grade 2-- As a book encouraging self-respect among children despite physical differences, this is a commendable effort. Born without a left hand, Harry is, in the words of a schoolmate, "just a regular kid." He enjoys the same games, and his matter-of-fact responses to other children's questions soon satisfy their curiosity. He makes friends with a redheaded boy named Oscar, and when another classmate calls him "Carrothead," Harry jumps to his defense. In one of those quick social changes common among school children, the three boys become best friends. The emphasis is on the similiarity of the boys, and the portrayal of Harry carries a clear message that even people who are considered disabled can be capable and self-assured. The story is weakened, however, by a lack of tension that fails to make it emotionally involving. Caseley's cheerful and inviting full-color cartoons depict a multiracial suburban setting. An accessible, attractive, and positive character portrayal. --Danita Nichols, New York Public Library

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Our daughter, adopted in Korea, was born without part of her left arm/hand and she loves this book. The first time I showed it to her, when she was only 2-1/2, she said "Just like me!" A must-have for any parent of a child with this type of condition. |
