Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley. ( ) Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing. A good book for younger readers, toddlers especially. I liked having the glossary/pronunciation guide in the back, and fairly good illustrations. Nice introduction to the idea of monsoons for American children, and a great ending. Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.

I'm excited to give this sweet book to my toddler nephew - it's cute, colorful, and fun, and I'm happy it tells the story of a girl who loves sports, who belongs to culture outside of his own, and offers fun opportunities to learn bits of a new language. I'm not sure the book is a classic for the ages, but it will be a fun part of his collection that I'm sure will make it into rotation. Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing. Mina vs. the Monsoon is a charming picture book for 4-8 year olds by Rukhsanna Guidroz. I received it as an ER book. A monsoon in Mina's South Asian village makes it rain and rain and rain, and she wants to play soccer with her beloved soccer ball (football). Her mother won't let her out; Mina thinks "she has never felt the explosion of happiness when you score a goal." But her mother understands better than Mina realizes. Mina tries all sorts of funny ploys to stop the rain; in searching for help in the house, she finds out something unexpected about her mother. When the clouds finally go away, she and her mother venture out together.It features some Hindu/Urdu phrases with a glossary in the back. An athletic girl in a part of the world we're not that familiar with, who just wants the rain to stop, and who learns she has more in common with her mother than she knew. Sweet. The illustrations by Debasmita Dasgupta are lively and fit the story well.
"Mina loves to play soccer all year round. Nothing comes close to it. But when the monsoon arrives, Mina is stuck indoors and she can't help feeling restless and bored. Her ammi doesn't understand. The doodhwalla doesn't understand. That's when Mina decides she'll find ways of chasing away the clouds herself. In doing so, she makes an unexpected discovery. Soccer will never be the same again for Mina! In a charming story that any kid who loves a sport will relate to, soccer-mad Mina tries just about any trick to stop the monsoon clouds from raining on her game. In doing so, she shows us glimpses of her life in a village in eastern India, highlighting the important role played by monsoon rains in this part of the world. The heart of the story, however, is the bond forged between a mother and her daughter on a gray, gloomy day."--Publisher website. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
