It basically consists of three things: an overwhelming number of bad dad jokes and puns, a lot of repetition, and list upon list of animals. There are some sweet moments and a few deep thoughts, but the negatives outweighed any redeeming qualities for me. I could see how kids would love its goofy nature, but it wasn't really my cup of tea. Oh my, but SOMEDAY ANGELINE is so adorable. My EL510 student who is hardest to please with the book selections for that class actually finished the whole book before our second class and declared that this book was fun, as compared to all the other books we had read before it (Mary Poppins, Kenny and the Dragon...). I liked the themes we could discuss in this book as well, about youth vs. genius, good/bad parenting, etc. The omniscient third-person narration was strange sometimes, and I didn't like how the adult romance was treated, but all in all, a solid thumbs-up for using this book for EL510. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

I didn't really like the Angeline's Dad / Miss Turbone love story, although I can see it makes a neat happy ever after for everyone. And I was surprised it didn't have more of a 'running away doesn't solve things' moral, in this book running away doesn't have any really bad consequences for Angeline. ( )
