I received a signed copy of this
book for having been involved in a giveaway on GoodReads, and the following
review is my honest opinion for it.
This is the second book I’ve read
written by this author. In this book, “Pibbin the Small,” which is also the
first book in the “Tales of Friendship Bog” series, readers are first
introduced to the characters which live there. And once again the author has
succeeded in subliminally teaching its young readers about another life lesson,
and this time it’s the importance of friendship.
In this story, Pibbin, despite being
the smallest of all the small tree frogs living in Friendship Bog, is willing
to do whatever it takes to obtain the much needed Sweetberry leaves his turtle
friend Sheera needs to get better. And all the horrific tales told by the other
frogs of what he can expect outside the area they call home does nothing in
trying to intimidate Pibbin from setting forth on this almost perilous journey.
Being determined to succeed in his task and to overcome the obstacles he
encounters is also cleverly communicated to its readers through Ms. Repp’s
writing technique and the wonderfully placed illustrations by Michael.
I find it a pleasure to be able to
get away from the adult books I read/review to read a good children’s book like
this; which is why I’ve given this book 5 STARS.
