Dr. Orly has
done it again, this time she’s teaching her young readers the true meaning of
friendship. And she’s in attempting to accomplish this goal she doesn’t hit her
young readers over the head with this lesson nor does she talk down to them
either; instead she does it in a wonderful subliminal manner, which they can
immediately grasp and understand.
While the
princess might have selected the ears, mouth, hands and heart when she asked
all the candidates vying to become her friend which is the best part of a person’s
body, she already knew what the only answer could possibly be. The princess
knew that for a true friendship to exist it can’t be based on a specific aspect
[part] of another person it has to be based on their total personae. In the end
only one individual, around her age, had been able to give her the answer she
was looking for.
When you
have a book written in rhyme, it aids in grabbing and keeping her reader’s attention
for the book, from the beginning to the end. If you have any doubts regarding
this, just think of the Dr. Seuss you read as a child, I know I have. The
illustrations in this book are complementing the text quite well.
For
helping her readers understand the meaning of friendship I happy to give Ms.
Katz 5 STARS for her endeavor here.
