Ich lese und höre inzwischen überall: am PC, Laptop, Tablet, iPhone etc.
Am liebsten aber ist mir immer noch ein echtes Buch, zum Vor- und Zurückblättern, ankreuzen, unterstreichen, herausschreiben, zusammenfassen.
Die Welt in der spannenden Betrachtung zwischen Multimedia und dem einfachen, gedruckten Buch ist Thema dieses wunderschönen Bilderbuches.
Bemerkungen zum Schmunzeln, hervorragende Illustrationen, komische Situationen lassen die Vorteile des Buches gekonnt auf den Punkt kommen.

This is another book by Lane Smith that elicits smiles and laughter. He has a simplistic way of encouraging us to read more and more of his books! He never fails to amaze, amuse and bring a smile!
In this story,
It was a perfect day for cat in the flowers where sleep was comfortable.
It was a perfect day for dog when the water rom the hose was refreshingly cool and just what was needed when it was a very hot day.
It was a perfect day for Chickadee who was fortunate to enjoy a fully filled bird feeder.
It was a perfect day for squirrel who couldn't get up the bird feeder because the design prohibited success. But, the kind boy who filled the feeder, dropped a perfect cob of corn on the grass, and squirrel immediately felt lucky.
THEN
Along comes spoiler bear. He manages to disrupt each and every animal from their joy. And, as the kind boy looks out the window with cat, dog, while bird and squirrel hang around out of the window, they are dismayed that their perfect day was spoiled by a bear who had his own perfect day.
I've read many books by this author. He never fails to disappoint.
