Review: Lovely story - Lovely story book bought for our grandson Thick solid pages initially stuck together on edges so carefully tease apart before using
Review: I wasn't sure, but my toddler LOVES this book - Nearly died when this book arrived - it's such a heavy, glossy, expensive looking boardbook. I haven't really seen one quite like it. It weighs an absolute tonne. Personally I wasn't sure about the illustrations, they're quite stylised, but this book has quickly become one of my son's favourites. Not sure how to explain it best: the prose is so nicely paced and there's a really good ratio of illustrations to words (more pictures than words), yet there's still a proper narrative to the book. It's perfect for really young children. I got it for my son when he was about 18 months old and he still loves it at nearly two. It's just a really gentle, calming, sweet story about a little boy who wants a star as a friend. Whenever my toddler wakes up from his afternoon nap in inconsolable tears, as he occasionally does for some mysterious reason, this book always immediately comforts him from the opening page. It works when all else fails, I can't give it any higher praise than that! Update: have seen some more of this author's work for slightly older children and appreciate the illustrations and the quirky style a bit better now. HIs books really are quite different. Looking forward to getting some more books by this author for my little boy to enjoy when he's a little older.
