Natalie and Alphonse really like to hear stories but when Natalie tries to learn to read, it’s hard and she decides she does not like books anymore. Mom and Alphonse help her write down one of her own stories and she finds that she can mostly read that. A clever way for them to help Natalie. Pictures are mostly primary colors and black (characters are monsters). The print is large, clear and looks like somebody’s handwriting. I would love to read it aloud to a first-grade class of kids who are learning to read themselves. Monster siblings Natalie and Alphonse, whose story began in Alphonse, That Is Not OK To Do!, return in this second picture-book devoted to their adventures. Lovers of stories of all kinds, they eagerly anticipate the day that Natalie learns to read, and will be able to access ALL the stories in the world. When Natalie actually gets her first reading book however, she discovers that the letters look like chicken scratch to her, and that the story itself isn't all that interesting. Will her frustrated declaration that she doesn't like books anymore put an end to their storytelling adventures...? I Do Not Like Books Anymore! is my first title from British author/illustrator Daisy Hirst, and I picked it up not knowing that it was the second book about these characters. I don't know if Natalie and Alphonse's first story was as appealing as this one, but I greatly enjoyed this first foray (for me) into their world. Hirst displays a sensitive appreciation in her narrative for the frustration that beginning readers often feel, both in terms of the acquisition of reading skills, and in terms of the quality of story available to them. Her "solution" - the children create their own book - is a creative one. The accompanying artwork, created using screen-printing, were colorful and fun, managing to capture the changing emotional register of each scene. I will definitely look for more of Hirst's work, and highly recommend this one to anyone searching for children's stories about the frustrations attendant on learning to read. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"Lovable monster siblings Natalie and Alphonse are back with big plans in a second surprisingly touching tale in which Natalie is ready to learn how to read. Natalie and Alphonse REALLY like books. Picture books with Dad, scary stories with Mom, and especially stories they remember or make up themselves. So when it's time for Natalie to learn to read, she thinks it will be exciting -- she can have all the stories in the world now, and even read them to Alphonse. But when Natalie gets her first reading book, the letters look like squiggles and it isn't even a good story; it's just about a cat that can sit. "I do not like books anymore!" Natalie declares. But she still wants to make up stories. With Alphonse's help, can she find a way to turn a love of telling stories into a love of reading stories? With her one-of-a-kind voice and wonderfully droll artwork, Daisy Hirst captures the familiar frustration of struggling to learn something new -- and the particular pride that comes when you finally succeed." -- Amazon.com Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
