Great pictures and very dramatic story! ( ) Edward, the young boy who helped Santa in author/illustrator David McPhail's holiday picture-book, Santa's Book of Names, returns in this second adventure. Now a more accomplished reader, Edward enjoys texts of all kinds, from the cereal box to the community monument. He especially likes to read the many books he takes out of the library. When he falls asleep with his latest - "Lost Pirate Treasure" - he has a fantastical dream involving a band of pirates demanding the book, and his mother (as Joan of Arc) and father (as Robin Hood) coming to his rescue... As a book-lover who haunted my local library as a child, I took Edward and the Pirates completely to heart! I appreciated the way that the stories Edward reads come alive for him, and the way he puts himself into each narrative, participating through imaginative play. I also greatly enjoyed the artwork, which is a little dark in tone at first, but which also has a lovely luminous quality to it. I haven't read the earlier book about Edward, as I was unaware when I picked this one up that it was part of a series. That said, given how much I enjoyed this one, I would definitely like to track it down. Recommended to young book and story lovers, and to anyone looking for picture-books about the magic of reading. Edward has a big imagination. He loves to read, and he loves the library. After checking out a book about pirates, Edward goes home and reads his new book before bed. After he falls asleep, he wakes up surrounded by pirates who are trying to steal the library book to find their buried treasure. Edward refuses to give them the book, but his kind heart takes over when he realizes the pirates are unable to read. I thought this book was so sweet. It shows kids that their are adventures waiting for them in the library and encourages them to be kind and help others. I also love David McPhail's illustrations. This book is perfect for motivating children to read. Edward discovers a book from the pirates that he is so excited to read. The pirates then return to get their book, and Edward then cherishes the book even more. Because this book is so important to Edward and the pirates, children will want to find and read a book that interests them so they can read it and cherish it. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
