OK, I'm a bit of a sucker for books with naughty kids and quirky and hapless farm animals. The eponymous Gus W. writes about his pet sheep in a report-card for Ms. Smolinski's class in this amusing picture-book, chronicling the ins and outs of interacting with his favorite ovine companions. Sheep have their quirks, and Gus lays them out here - they won't climb trees, and can't be taught to skateboard - while also reporting on some of the 'quirks' of his family, from his father's pique when Gus lets his little brother ride one of the sheep, to his mother's horror when he lets his "pets' into the house. A humorous tale, one which offers a dual narrative of sorts - it is as much the story of Gus and his family, as it is a report about pet sheep - My Favorite Pets pairs a hilarious story from Jeanne Birdsall, author of the middle-grade Penderwicks series, with appealing ink and watercolor illustrations from artist Harry Bliss, who has also worked on such titles as Diary of a Worm and its sequels. The final page, which gives Ms. Smolinski's response to Gus's report, is particularly amusing! Recommended to anyone looking for fun, entertaining new tales for the picture-book set. This book is set up as a book report written by Gus W. Each page contains a funny element regarding sheep as well as an image to go along with it. While there's a little bit of sheep info that you can learn, there's not much to learn from here. Having said that, it's a very funny book and will encourage reading.

In his homework assignment, Gus spends less time on what he likes about sheep and more on how he has gotten in trouble doing such things as using a sheep as an umbrella, or letting sheep into his house. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
