The youngster
featured in this book begins by introducing the reader to his universe
and the planets and stars that ·glow bright and light up
the night.· From outer space, he then heads down towards
Earth, his ·own little piece of the universe.· The
journey continues as the next focus is on the child·s country,
then his town, his house, his room and then his very own bed.
The rhymed
narrative makes this not only a pleasant read aloud book, but also
one that beginning readers should be able to handle without too
much difficulty. Introducing children to the concept that we are
part of a much bigger world is also a good idea, and this picture
book does so in a free and easy manner. |
