Who Will Kiss the Crocodile?: A Snappy Twist on… di Suzy Senior
It's a little hard to break the spell when it involves kissing a crocodile...
Ilove this picturebook.
Okay, now that that is out of the way, let me tell you why. A fable, in rhyming verse, The Hotel for Bugs tells the story of a brand-new hotel, with sparkling amenities, that has opened to serve the bug community!
The hotel features a spa, a pool, a larva club (for the kids!) and a buffet among its many offerings. It is the swankiest place in town! Senior’s verse is a wonder of cheeky rhymes, playfully mixing bug-like behaviors with hotel-guest actions.
All is well in the hotel, until a SLUG tries to check in. The Slug, it seems, is not like the other hotel guests and is quickly refused access by the hotel manager. What happens next, turns this story into a tale of inclusion, advocacy, and a celebration of differences.
Bright, colorful, charmingly bug-eyed illustrations round out the text providing exquisite detail to not only support the verse, but also provide an avenue for additional storytelling. What is each bug thinking?
The Hotel for Bugs (should it be renamed?) is a wonderful addition to any classroom (and a sure hit at home too!). This one, you’ll eventually memorize–kids will want to read it again and again!… (altro)
