Book Reviews of Chrysanthemum
Book Review: This book was absolutely perfect for readers of all ages!
Summary: 5 Stars
My family and I fell in love with this book when our oldest daughter entered kindergarten. As a new parent to a school age child, I totally related to the feelings and thoughts of Chrysanthemum's parents. Our children, like this precious little mouse , our "absolutely perfect". The book served as an excellent parent resource for tips on encouragement and support. My entire family has benefitted from this book, and each one of us has found a special way to relate to the characters. This book has also taught my children a wonderful lesson - the need for kindness to all despite our differences. We highly recommend this book!Book Review: Chrysanthemum

I think that this story is one that will inspire children. It deals with the elements of peer pressure that all children will face at one point or another and shows how easily views are swayed. This story also does a good job of demonstrating that everyone has ups and downs. I would recommend reading this story to your child or class at the beginning of the school year as a model for inappropriate behavior and ways to handle bullies. I would also recommend other stories by this author because they include good use of voice as well as life situations with which almost all children can relate.Book Review: It is about being nice to our friends and not to tease them.

The students from Mrs. Wicks' class at Silver Lake Elementary School in Middletown, DE loved this book. The class is a multi-aged group of first and second graders. The book is one of their books from the Principal of the Month Book Club. The children said that they loved the pictures because they were so colorful. They also liked when all of the students who teased Chrysanthemum wanted to be named after a flower just like her but did not like when they teased her. They loved her name and thought it was neat. Thank you for a great book. Mrs. Wicks' class!!Book Review: A wonderful flower book

I bought this book for my daughter when she was 4 year-old.For I am not an American,it was hard for me to pronounce even the title of this book when I picked it up to read it for my daughter. But I now have an American tongue for this book. We kept in reading this book everyday, so she remembered all the names of Chrysanthemum's friends and showed her enthusiasm in learning the reading.She kept the book by her while she slept and brought it everywhere she went.Now she is 7,and this book is still one of her treasures.Book Review: excellent

Chrysantmum loves her name but when she started school she thought her name was dreadful! Her name was spelled with thirteen letters,and she was named after a flower.The wicked Victoria even said she looked liked a flower . After the class was introduced to Mrs Twinkle,everyone thought her name was perfect! Chrsantmum was happy.I think this book is good for 3~8 years old readers,it is very interesting and has special names.I am 8 years old and I like to read story books to my 3 years old sister.
