| Kindergarten-Grade 2-When Kate and her parents visit an animal shelter, they first bring home a precious puppy, then return to adopt an older dog that had also captured their hearts. Graham's cartoon-style, plump figures include a Mom with a tattoo and nose ring, and a disheveled Dad. The cozy domestic scenes include typical particulars like a forgotten piece of toast, toys on the floor, and cleaning gear in the bathroom. With the comprehensive characterization chronicled in these pen-and-ink and watercolor panoramas, readers easily embrace this family whose affections extend to include pets on the bed. This endearing book successfully compels those previously pledged to pedigree puppies to try an alternative route. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| The image on the dad's shirt is NOT a cigarette (in fact, the mom sports an anti-smoking t-shirt in one illustration), it is a match which changes form in accordance with his feelings/state-of-mind. It is lit when he goes to the shelter to adopt a pup; the flame is extinguished when he leaves poor Rosie behind in her cage; and then it changes into a lit lightbulb ("eureka!")when he returns to rescue Rosie.
As for the young couple having tattoos and piercings--this fits in perfectly with the book's theme, which is that we should appreciate beings for who they are on the inside, rather than judge them for what they look like on the outside.
This is a beautiful book that has won a slew of awards and special mentions. Highly recommended as a means of teaching empathy and acceptance.
