I feel it is important to pick up books that our kids read to see what others are filling their minds with. With that said, I dove into this book to see if I can get the perspective of an eight year old.
This book is a collection of short stories by some pretty famous authors like E.B. White and Rohl Dahl. It gives stories of certain points in time of eight year olds. The print and the verbiage I believe is dead on for an eight year old to read. The stories are mildly entertaining but not really memorable.
One of the things that I disliked about the compilation was that most of the stories really had no conclusion...they didn't go anywhere. Sort of like the authors were distracted and exhibited their own special version of ADHD. In conversing with the wife, she quickly pointed out that this is much like the mind of an 8 year old. And I thought about this issue long and hard. And I started to ask myself the question, what is this book for? Entertainment sure, but if given an opportunity to help mold the mind of a child, would you take it? This book really didn't. In fact, I believe that this book failed on that point. It just gave a child who reads it a story for the sake of filling up pages and nothing more. The opportunity to go into Moral lessons failed on this book.
So, although somewhat entertaining, I feel this book missed it's mark. Would I recommend this book? Sure. But just like your entertaining B rated movie, if you are looking for Oscar material, it's not here. ( )
