From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| PreSchool-Grade 1—Pucca, a penguin, lives with his father, who makes cups. But since everyone in town has already purchased one of them, business dries up, and Dad must pack up his wares to sell in the next village. Left at home with Ms. Parrot, Pucca is lonely but soon starts playing with the clay in his father's workshop. Before long, he's fashioning some very unusual cups himself, all based on the different animals that live nearby. In this way, he revives the family business and brings about a happy reunion. This sweet but odd little story strikes a mixed tone, going from the sadness of the father's leave-taking to the whimsicality of Pucca's artworks. The illustrations are charming, using simple, stylized cartoons and soft, attractive colors. An additional choice for avid penguin fans.—Lauralyn Persson, Wilmette Public Library, IL

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| Pucca, a young penguin with a penchant for creativity, enjoyed watching his father sculpt and paint handmade cups that he sold in town. Unfortunately, business had slowed down because everyone in town had already purchased a cup, so Pucca's father packed up and left for the next village in search of new customers. Determined to change this situation, Pucca experimented with his father's special clay and paints until he designed a custom-made parrot cup that Ms. Parrot adored. As word got around, the demand for Pucca's innovative designs soared. Would there be enough new orders to support his father's business?
This outstanding book gets top marks for its clever story that features important ideas in economics related to innovation, supply, and demand. The illustrations, marvelously creative and irresistible, may very well leave readers wishing for their own custom-made cups. |
