Little One Inch was a good picture book for a few reasons. I liked this book because of the characters. There was a small boy who was called One Inch and the creature who was very big. One Inch felt it was his duty to save the town from the big creature. He finds out after tying him up that the creature is peaceful. The town is able to live happily ever after. This teaches children that no matter what shape, size, appearance, personality, everyone is special in their own way. The characters were decently developed from the short story. Little One Inch was well described and it was believable that he would want to prove himself against the creature. The point of view is from third person. Someone else is describing everything from an outside perspective. I think it could have been interesting for the book to be told from the perspective of Little One Inch. The plot was interesting because Little One Inch felt he had the responsibility to save the town. I thought that was very interesting in this story. I would recommend this book to a teacher who has a student who is having difficulty with making friends in school and loving themselves.… (meer)
