Ruby Valentine and the Sweet Surprise av Laurie Friedman
Valentine's
Presents the life of a Holocaust survivor, who was kept from starvation through the efforts of a young girl from a farming family who secretly threw an apple to him every day through the fence surrounding the concentration camp.
I love the quirky illustrations -- it looks like a fun school day! But the text, oh the text. Page after page of no, no and no. The rules are negative - don't do this, don't do that. Instead of being endearing or silly, it feels heavy and sad. Not the feeling I want to share with students at the start of school!
Ruby Valentine and the Sweet Surprise teaches a valuable lesson about the capacity for love, particularly the ability to love multiple people (and pets) and to love them equally.
The illustrations are great (although very, very pink), but the rhyming style of the text feels a bit forced. I would have preferred the story if it had been prose instead.
While this book can stand on its own, I think one's enjoyment of it suffers a bit if you have not read the other Ruby Valentine books. The story begins a somewhat abruptly, and I was left with some questions that may have already been answered in the other books (like why does her bird wear a sweater?).
Note: I received a digital galley of this book through NetGalley.… (mer)
