"Tom Tomorrow" is known for his biting/ funny political commentary, as reflected in his cartoon series "This Modern World". "The Very Silly Mayor" is a very different work -- a children's book intended to lead its young readers to gently question political authority. The mayor of a "medium sized city" has some very strange ideas -- that the police should wear clown costumes, and that firemen should use peanut butter instead of water to put out fires. The people go along with these ideas because everyone else is doing it, and they don't want anyone to laugh at them. Sparky the penguin leads people to the Mayor's office to challenge his ideas, and he quickly capitulates. Thus, the youngsters learn to trust their own judgement even if others disagree with them (though why children should trust their own naïve judgements is never explained). No matter; there are plenty of worse, and better, things for the kids to read. ( ) Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

When the mayor of a pretty good, medium-sized city begins to make decisions that are not only silly but dangerous, as well, Sparky the penguin is the only citizen willing to speak out. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
