Book Reviews of Pinkerton, Behave!
Book Review: Pinkerton books are great.
Summary: 5 Stars
I can not believe the reviews I have read about this book! Pinkerton books are about the natural difficulties that all children run into as they cope with life. Trying to behave the way their parents want them to but not knowing for sure what that means is the main difficulty addressed in Pinkerton, Behave! If your child responded to the burglar with fear and is now afraid it is because you, the parent/adult, responded with fear and showed clearly to your child how much that upset you. Children learn by watching, listening, and immitating adults. When I was read this story as a child, the emphasis was on the funny side of Pinkerton just not understanding and how the people were able to use that misunderstanding to get Pinkerton to do what they needed him to do in an emergency. My daughter and all of the other children I have read this to (and believe me they are many) have laughed along and then learned that they can use what they do understand to learn about what they don't. They learned to ask questions to learn what they wanted to know from their parents. Stop being so scared of the world and start teaching about the world, including the dangers and how to cope with them. Your kids will thank you for being brave for them.
