Book Reviews of Babar's Picnic
Book Review: Not for Modern Children
Summary: 1 Stars
This 1949 book is inapppropriate for modern children. In one story, it manages to be insulting to both black Africans and Native Americans! The black African characters are referred to as "savages" and described as being afraid of rain, while their medicine man is referred to as a "sorcerer." In a prior related scene, the elephant children dress up as "Indians" in feathered headresses and play with bow and arrow. This Babar story has become hopelessly dated by modern standards, and should be relegated to collectors.
