The pair are the author-artists behind an entire series of boardbooks that use adorable felt characters to retell classic stories such as TOM SAWYER, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, MOBY DICK, and more.... Yes, Board Books. Now 'RETELL' is perhaps not the best word to use because these books have virtually no text. The first page might lead you to think that there's text, but that's not the case. The entirety of the Cozy Classic's TOM SAWYER contains just a dozen words: Hide, Paint, Kiss, Cry, Play, Camp, Storm, Home, Cave, Lost, Out, and Gold. ~ Now I don't know whether this book will work for you and yours, but it's certainly something different in the realm of boardbooks, and if you are familiar with TOM SAWYER --wikipedia might help-- you could sit down with your child(ren) and introduce them to this story. Obviously you'd have to give them the bullet-item version, but the engaging artwork will help to keep their attention, and I believe it's worth an experiment to see how your child reacts to the story and the book's presentation. (go library!) **A collection of these books I think would make a charming gift for new or expecting parents. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Cozy Classics: Mark Twain's the Adventures of Tom Sawyer opens strong with a fantastic representation of "hide." The "hide" spread is by far my favorite in the whole book, followed by "camp." Fantastic.
The Wangs are skilled at reducing complex classics to simple key words and images that most kids will understand. The Cozy Classics serve as "my first words" type readers, helping kids to grasp basic ideas with eye-catching visual examples.
The art itself is worthy of being framed. The attention to detail, expert lightning, and creativity make these simple books ones that you'll want to read over and over again.
But the best thing about the Cozy Classics is that they're a great way for parents and caregivers to share their favorite classic stories with kids in an engaging, age-appropriate way. Who wouldn't want to foster a love of the classics from a young age?
Note: I received a digital galley of this book through NetGalley. ( )
