Read for: Early Reader Challenge
Synopsis: "The Foolish Tortoise sheds his shell after deciding that he needs to move through the world more quickly. But, after a few scary encounters, he rediscovers the value of going slow and safe. Full-color illustrations." My Review: This is a good level two beginning reader book, it does have simple sentences and words but it has a nice storyline to draw the reader in. It also has a great lesson in it that young readers will be able to take away from it. |
My Rating: We enjoyed the Eric Carle illustrations and the simple sentences, words and storyline are great for those young readers. We give it a rating of Three Paws and a Stump Wag.
This sounds like a cute book with a great message. Is Eric Carle the guy that did the Hungary Caterpillar?
ReplyDeleteYup Eric Carle did the Very Hungry Caterpillar, Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See, Polar Bear Polar Bear What Do You Hear, Pancakes, and so many more of our favorites.
DeleteI like when these really simple beginner reader books have a story. Some don't and it makes it mind numbingly boring to read for the adult.
ReplyDeleteI understand the simplicity of some of the books but it is such a relief to have an actual story instead of just words.
