Book Reviews of Don't Forget to Come Back!
Book Review: Terrible for Kids
Summary: 1 Stars
I found this book in the library, and being a babysitter to a very smart 4-year-old, I thought it would be a great idea to read it to her. I ended up skipping a lot of it and making up some parts as we went along. It's definitely not something I would want a young kid to read, especially considering it uses words like "stupid" and mentions things like "If you really really love me, you'd take me with you!", amongst other similar statements. I just don't find any of it appropriate for youngsters.
Summary of Don't Forget to Come Back!
With warmth, empathy, and a healthy dose of hilarity, Robie H. Harris and Harry Bliss capture the many emotions children feel when parents go out-and a babysitter comes in!Guess what? The babysitter is coming!
That means:
1. Mommy and Daddy are going out
2. the feisty heroine of this book is not going out . . .
3. and she doesn't like that one bit!
Parents, kids, and babysitters alike will relate to-and laugh at-this all-too-familiar tale, wisely and wittily penned by an expert in child development and brought wickedly to life with detailed illustrations by a noted New Yorker cartoonist.
