Add a CommentThis Batchelder Award winning title (translated from French) is a delight, with intricate and adorable images of life in a French neighborhood, as a young girl searches for the perfect present for her mom. Ages 3-6
a very stupid no-story story, my daughter was making up better stories when she was 4.
It also looks like the author is a militant vegetarian - the butcher got vilified out of the blue - definitely anti-omnivore attitude. All the shop-keepers were nice, and the butcher threatens the little girl with a bloody knife - what kind of idiocy is that in a book intended for really young children?
The book is not recommended for any age, read it to your children if you want them to grow up into idiots.
