Book Reviews of Someone Bigger
Book Review: Empowering Fun Little Book
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this book. I got it recently from the library for my daughter and upon reading it, she loved it and I did too. The pictures are colorful, cheerful, and well-done. The rhyming verse is fun to read but not overly simplistic. Most of all, it has a great message: sometimes parents need to step aside and let kids experience things for themselves.
After we return this book to the library, I think I'll turn around and buy it from Amazon, so that we can revisit it often!
Summary of Someone Bigger
Sam can't wait to try out his new kite, but Dad says he's too small to fly it alone-it needs someone bigger. When Dad launches the kite, a strong wind pulls it into the sky. But the wind is so strong that it pulls Dad up, too! Only one person can rescue this runaway kite, and Sam knows just who that someone is. With bouncy text-in a combination of rhyme and prose-and cheery art, this whimsical story is just right for anyone who's ever felt not big enough.
