Harriet would be deemed a brat my many or most people who come upon her off-the-wall antics. Some of the down-right frustrating situations that are all a result of her never- can- sit-still personality include spills on the dog, paint spatters on the carpet, contourshoning her body while in her seat at the table awhich then causes juice to splatter as it hits the back of the dog, and then Harriet slid off her chair while the tablecloth came along with her. Always, Harriet say's "I'm Sorry!" Her mother has the patience of a saint and doesn't resort to yelling, even when Harriet is at her worse. And, her reply to Harriet is "Harriet, my "darling" child. Harriett, you'll drive me wild," "Harriet, sweetheart, what are we to do?" And, as always, Harriet replies with her usual, "I'm sorry." And Harriet truly is sorry. She simply cannot help herself. But when the tablecloth slid off the table, taking everything on the floor, breaking the dishes, spilling milk, and food that finds itself in the dog's mouth, her mother who doesn't like to yell emphatically says her usual "Harriet, you'll drive me wild." And then, when she is meant to take a nap, Harriet could not help ripping open a pillow, leaving feathers flying everywhere, Hariett's mother doesn't say her usual sentence, instead there was silence followed by loud yelling, lots and lots of unexpected yelling! This time, Harriet seems to realize that her mother's calmness is gone. Harriett tells her mother that she really, really is sorry! And, after seeing how upset Harriet is, her mother tells her she is sorry for yelling. Then, they laughed and together pushed the feathers back in the pillow. While at first I thought no one could be as calm as Harriet's mother, I realized that there was a lesson to be learned by both. The illustrations are what makes this book so very charming! And, both come away with an understanding that sometimes accidents do happen, and sometimes a parent loses their calm. Personally, I know that if I did even a little bit of what Harriet did, I would have been spanked and told to go to my room. In some instances the patience of Harriet's mother was difficult to believe, but the author and illustrator try to show, and succeed in relating, that anger is not the best way to deal with a child who simply cannot help but create a mess in most situations. And she truly is sorry for what seems to be behaviour she cannot control. See this review. Not the best. Bit slow. Bit bland. There's no rhyming and the message doesn't really impact very strongly. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
