Elijah of Buxton is the tale of a young African American boy who is growing up in Buxton, Canada. Throughout the book, Elijah describes his life in the Settlement, which is located across the border from Michigan and was established by freed slaves during the 1850s. The reader becomes acquainted with all of the various individuals that are a part of Elijah's life and follows his many exploits. Elijah’s narration is very fun to read and allows the reader to see his loving personality and his innocence. The young boy’s commentary excellently integrates humor and a sense of hope into the sadness and heartache that accompany many of the events in the novel.
Elijah’s distinctive dialect is a wonderful story element that immediately draws the reader into the story and adds emotion to the characters’ voices. For example, Elijah’s habit of being “fra-gile” is humorous at particular points in the story and very touching in other sections. The phrases and words that the characters use accurately reflect the language of the time period and help the reader in better understanding each individual character.
This piece of historical fiction is a great reflection of the attitudes, feelings, and occurrences of this particular time in history. The author’s description of the lifestyle that freed slaves lived is both informative and interesting. The heartbreaking circumstances that were faced by freed African Americans and the sense of both despair and optimism that was present in their lives are effectively communicated throughout this work. The reader truly sees the value of freedom and comes to better understand some of the sacrifices that had to be made in order for some individuals to attain their independence.
I found Elijah’s meeting with the slaves in Michigan to be very poignant. His increased appreciation for his freedom and better understanding of the treatment of slaves were very moving moments in the book. In addition, Elijah saving the slave baby and taking to her freedom in Canada was very touching. His returning with Hope was an excellent ending to the book.
As I read the book, I could clearly imagine the struggles and circumstances that these individuals had to face. The story establishes strong characters that are remarkable and inspiring. In addition, the book is a great way to learn about the effects of slavery, the struggles that African Americans had to face, and to see the strength that so many individuals demonstrated during this trying time. The integration of this novel into the social studies curriculum would be a great way of teaching students about the important events, ideas, and beliefs of this period in the past. I would highly recommend reading this book.

Noah’s Ark by Jerry Pinkney
The story of Noah and his mission to preserve life on the earth has always been one of my favorite Bible stories. As child, I always found it amazing that all of the animals fit into the ark. Every time that I read the story, I would always imagine myself in the ship with all of the animals and Noah and his family. I still remember the joy that I felt as I heard that the dove was returning with the olive branch. This meant that the animals and people could leave the ark and begin life anew. When I read the story as an adult, I find Noah’s faith to be inspiring and admirable. I will always associate the story of Noah’s ark with the concept of faith and obedience to God.
Jerry Pinkney’s interpretation of the story is very beautiful. His wonderful paintings brilliantly illustrate Noah’s tale and allow the reader to better envision the occurrences in the story. The varying colors that Pinkney chooses to include in the illustrations are immediately appealing to eye. His choice of subject in each of his paintings is very fitting for each portion of the story. The animals that populate much of the book are an instant draw for young readers. The animals’ movements and demeanor in the illustrations are very realistic. The illustrations of Noah and his family are also very lifelike and aid in expressing how they are feeling and provides the reader with an insight into their thoughts throughout the entire adventure.
As I briefly stated in my review of The Ugly Duckling, I really enjoy Jerry Pinkney’s illustrations. Many of the paintings, especially in Noah’s Ark, are pictures that I would love to frame and display in my home. One of my favorite illustrations in the book is the painting that shows the underwater creatures swimming over the flooded city but beneath the ark. The dark blues of the creatures and the water are very comforting. In addition, the image of the flood city juxtaposed with the protection and safety of the ark conveys the very poignant message that God will provide and care for individuals throughout all of the occurrences in their lives.
Jerry Pinkney is a great talent. I look forward to finding and reading some of the other works that he has illustrated. Information about the illustrator states that he has illustrated a number of other works including Aesop’s Fables, the aforementioned The Ugly Duckling, John Henry, Mirandy and Brother Wind, and The Talking Eggs. Upon my next visit to the library, I am going to attempt to find these books and further enjoy the beautiful images that are created by this great talent.

The Higher Power of Lucky by Susan Patron
The Higher Power of Lucky is the tale of a young lady whose mother has died and whose father isn’t interested in being a part of her life. Lucky lives with her guardian, Brigitte, and her dog HMS Beagle. The book begins with Lucky eavesdropping on an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting and immediately allows the reader to see into the mind of Lucky and to get a good idea of the type of life that she leads. The cast of characters are interesting individuals. Though none of the characters are perfect, every person in the town of Hard Pan, California seems to truly care about everyone else. Some of the occurrences and situations in the book could be viewed as depressing and disheartening. The overall feel of the book, however, is one of hopefulness and advancement.
Lucky is a wonderful character who has big dreams and loves to gain new knowledge. Her aspirations to become a world famous scientist are inspiring and aid in presenting many of her other positive character traits. Readers will find the title character to be brave, intelligent, and inspirational. Lucky is also a character for which the reader feels a strong sense of compassion. Her fear of being abandoned by Brigitte is excellently portrayed in the writing. This fear makes Lucky endearing to the reader and also adds a sense of suspense to the book. Lucky’s quest to find her own higher power is a journey that readers are sure to enjoy.
I had previously read that this book contained controversial content. After reading the book, I can see how some individuals would consider some of the subject matter of the book to be controversial. However, I do not think that the content is inappropriate for the age level for which the book is written. Some of the terms that are used in the book, such as scrotum, and some of the discussions about alcoholism and addiction are not included for shock value. These terms and issues are important elements of the story that open lines of communication about these subjects and allow young readers to have a better understanding of their worlds. I do think that it is important that a teacher, parent, or other adult discusses the issues that are presented with children as they are reading or after they have read the book.
I found this story to be a very pleasing reading experience. I like the fact that the book addresses issues that are a part of some children’s lives. Despite the imperfections of the characters and situations that are sometimes unfavorable, the novel presents a sense of hope and accomplishment in the face of adverse situations and demonstrates the value of community. Lucky’s tale is a true inspiration!

Feathers by Jacqueline Woodson
Hope is the thing with feathers
that perches in the soul,
And sings the tune—without the words,
And never stops at all
—Emily Dickinson
This poem is printed at the beginning of Feathers by Jacqueline Woodson and is a major component of the subsequent story narrated by Frannie, an African-American sixth grader who is growing up in the seventies. Frannie details her life at home and at school and allows the reader to get insight into her thoughts and feelings. As the book progresses, Frannie comes to a new understanding of her peers and family. The arrival of the boy that is named Jesus Boy brings about Frannie’s enlightenment about the feelings of these individuals and her own feelings.
I really enjoyed this book. The author’s approach in addressing issues such as race, prejudice based on skin color and disability, and faith is very compelling and very moving. Frannie’s description of her brother Sean’s deafness and how he is treated as a result of this disability allows the reader to get a solid understanding of some of the challenges that deaf individuals experience. I could really relate to this aspect of the story because I have a cousin who is deaf. Frannie’s description of conversations and her use of sign language is an aspect of the story that was very relatable.
The issue of faith and trying to be Christ-like is another aspect of my life that allowed me to deeply connect with this story. The presence of the new kid in class, Jesus Boy, causes Frannie to more deeply explore the ideas of hope and faith. These are concepts that I explored in my youth and continue to explore in the present. I was moved by the examination of faith and hope that is presented throughout the book.
During most of the events in the story, Frannie and some of her classmates think that the Jesus Boy may actually be Jesus returning to earth. Events transpire, however, that lead them away from this conclusion. After the children have decided that Jesus Boy is not actually Jesus, Frannie and Samantha, Frannie’s best friend, have a very moving conversation about him and the events that have recently transpired. In this conversation, Frannie states:
Maybe there’s a little bit of Jesus inside of all of us. Maybe Jesus is just that something good or something sad or something…something that stays with us and makes us do stuff like help Trevor up even though he’s busy cursing us out. Or maybe…maybe Jesus is just that thing you had when the Jesus Boy first got here, Samantha. Maybe Jesus is the hope that you were feeling.
Feathers is an inspiring book that I truly enjoyed reading and plan to add to my classroom collection. The book is a great adventure that allows individuals of all ages to reflect upon their idea of hope and investigate their own personal faiths. I highly recommend reading this book.

Books by Dr. Seuss
The Cat in the Hat and other stories by Dr. Seuss have been a fundamental element of the lives of primary children for as long as I can remember. The Cat in the Hat, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Horton Hatches an Egg, and Green Eggs and Ham are just a few of the titles that I thoroughly enjoyed as a child. The Dr. Seuss books are stories that are really fun to read. The phrasing that is used throughout the books, the adventures to alternate worlds, and the signature artwork are elements that add to the appeal of the works of Dr. Seuss.
The Cat in the Hat is an entertaining tale about how the Cat in the Hat enters the lives of two young children and brings a bit of chaos and hysteria into their world. The cat’s actions, however, are not all bad. The adventure that is presented as a result of his presence and his willingness to aid the children in restoring the order of which they had previously been accustomed are two positive character traits that are displayed by the title character. As a child, I remember thinking about the consequences that the children would have to face if their mother saw the mess that had been made. This sense of tension is a major element of the book and causes the reader to continuously wondering what these characters are going to do next. I cannot immediately think of any children’s books that contain the tension that is presented in The Cat in the Hat.
The book has appealed to children for many decades and continues to be a beloved story by kids and adults. Kids still love to read the rhyming tale about the events that transpire as a result of a feline in a striped top hat. The repletion of some words and the rhyme scheme and phrasing of the sentences are elements that continue to draw children to this book and other works by Dr. Seuss. In addition, the signature illustration style immediately pulls children into the world of Dr. Seuss. The zany characters and plotline of this book are aspects with which modern day children can still relate.
The Lorax is a story that has taught and continues to teach the lesson of conservationism and preservation. The image of a world without trees is a bleak idea that Dr. Seuss presents in a very imaginative way. Individuals can see how the loss of trees, the effects of greed, and the failure to replenish a natural resource has negatively affected the world of the Lorax. Children and adults can learn from the mistakes of the Once-ler and aid in maintaining Earth’s amazing ecosystem. The negative effects of pollution are shown throughout the book. The optimistic ending of the book also challenges children to apply what they have learned from the book and become more eco-friendly. This is a concept in which children are continuously being exposed. The “green movement” and the challenge to “go green” are two concepts that directly link to the lesson that is communicated in The Lorax.
Didactic children’s books, like The Lorax, continue to exist in today’s world. For example, Zen Shorts by Jon J. Muth, which I have previously reviewed, teaches three lessons that children can apply to their lives. All of the children’s books by Madonna teach a life lesson. In The English Roses, children learn about the effects of jealousy and to get to know someone before making preconceived notions about that person. Mr. Peabody’s Apples teaches the reader about the negative effect of gossip and the power of one’s words. Yakov and the Seven Thieves presents the lesson that people must turn away from their negative habits in order to attain blessings. The Adventures of Abdi teaches that everything that happens in life is for the best. Lotsa de Casha presents a multitude of lessons including how sharing can lead to great things and happiness cannot be bought. These are just a few of the many children's books that teach important lessons to children.

Zen Shorts by Jon J. Muth
Jon J. Muth’s Zen Shorts is an original story of three young children and their panda friend, Stillwater. The children, Addy, Michael, and Karl, each go to visit Stillwater on separate occasions. Stillwater tells a different Zen story to each of the children that relates specifically to how the child is feeling or dealing with a particular situation. The three separate tales, which are based on Zen Buddhist literature and Taoism, teach each of the children valuable lessons that they can directly apply to their lives.
Muth cleverly integrates the Zen lessons into the overarching story of the three children and their wise friend. I really enjoyed reading the Zen parables and saw how they could apply to my own life. I think that children would also greatly benefit from hearing these tales. The stories would be excellent ways to get children to share about their own experiences and to evaluate how the lessons directly apply to events in their lives. The children could also use these lessons when dealing with future problems or dilemmas.
The art work in this book is very engaging and charming. The main story that features the three children and Stillwater is illustrated in soft, warm colors. The colors in this portion of the book are very comforting and peaceful. The fables that are interspersed throughout the main tale are illustrated in black and white with different background colors accompanying each separate tale. The drawings are more simplistic and more focused on the main characters and objects that are prominently featured in each story. The separation of each of the tales from the main story and from one another very effectively allows the reader to successfully transition from one feature of the overall story into another.
I really enjoyed reading this book. The Zen stories are tales that are applicable to the lives of individuals, both young and old. I also found the author’s note at the end of the book to be very informative. The story would be an excellent way to introduce children to aspects of the Japanese culture and to inform them about Buddhist beliefs. The book is a great multicultural resource that is both informative and fun to read.

The Three Pigs by David Wiesner
The Three Pigs by David Wiesner is a variation of the classic story of The Three Little Pigs. The story begins exactly the same way as the classic tale. By the third page, however, the tale begins to veer away from the beloved story that has been told over the years. The pigs escape from the story panels and fly to other stories via a paper airplane that is constructed from one of the pages of the original story. The pigs explore the world of the nursery rhyme Hey Diddle Diddle the Cat and the Fiddle and an adventure story about a dragon who is going to be slain. The pigs then return to their classic story in the company of the cat and the dragon from the two aforementioned stories and “live happily ever after.”
The premise of the story sounds really interesting and innovative. I loved the variations on the classic fairy tales that were featured in Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes. However, I did not enjoy the delivery of the story in this particular book. The design of the book is more favorable to individual readings and is very difficult to read aloud. Attempting to read all of the pig’s comments while reading the text that was featured from the original story was awkward and could be somewhat confusing when read aloud.
On a positive note, the art in the book is very appealing to the eye and the author’s use of different styles of illustrations was clever. In the book, the three pigs’ appearances were altered to correspond to the style of the different tales through which they traveled. I appreciate the illustrator’s combination of all of these different styles and really liked the idea of the pigs adventuring into other stories.
Despite my personal dislike for the book, I feel that this work would be a good addition for inclusion in the primary library collection. However, I would not choose this book as a text that would be read aloud to a group of students.
