reSchool-Grade 2-This charming Mother's Day story depicts family togetherness and love in a single-parent household. Stanley, the youngest of four kittens, can't decide on a gift for his mother. Stumped, he asks each of his siblings what they are giving. His brother says he will give their mother flowers. "`Good idea,' said Stanley" and he rushes off to pick some flowers from the garden. But "by the time he got back inside, all the petals had fallen off." Stanley then goes on to ask his two older sisters for advice but comes up with no ideas. Troubled, the kitten tosses and turns all night, worrying about what to do. The next morning, his siblings gather in Stanley's room to offer last-minute advice, triggering an idea for the perfect present. The cartoon illustrations, done in watercolor, gouache, and pencil, dominate the book, showing the dejected kitten as his ears droop, whiskers quiver, and tail drags with each failed effort to produce a gift. One very nice touch is the progression of family photos on the endpapers and title pages. The bright colors and expressive characters combined with the heartwarming story make this a noteworthy addition to picture-book collections. Children will identify with Stanley, his quest, and his ultimate triumph. |

It's the day before Mother's Day and Stanley doesn't know what to get him mom. He tries asking all of his brothers and sisters what they were giving their mom, but none of their ideas worked for him. Now it's the night before and he has nothing to give. What will Stanley do?
This is a cute story for very young children. My son and I read it together and he loved the story. The characters are cute and lovable. I think any early reader (or child that needs to be read to) would enjoy it!
