Grasshopper Pie

Summary: With simple yet charming color drawings
Review: Grasshopper Pie is a humorous picture book by Rebecca and Angela Talley about imagination and the dangers of taking ideas too literally. A mother dreams up and talks about unique dishes such as "grasshopper pie" to her children, yet her young boy and girl decide to surprise her with a "pie" that has not-so-imaginary ingredients! A funny story, nicely illustrated with simple yet charming color drawings, Grasshopper Pie is a welcome addition to school and community library and especially recommended for young readers ages 4 to 6.

Summary: Great Pictures, Fun Story
Review: I read this book with my 9-year-old daughter and she loved it! It's a very cute children's story that all ages will be able to enjoy and associate with - the kind of book that your kids will want you to read to them again as soon as you are done the first time. The pictures are really well done - it's amazing how well Angela, herself a young girl, captues emotion and expression in her simple, familiar style. Let's hope she and mom Rebecca come out with more books soon.

Summary: Delightful Children's Story
Review: This is a terrific book for young readers. The story is straight out of real life-- something most of them could identify with. The illustrations do an excellent job of portraying the action visually. Plus, there's nothing scary or moralizing-- it's just good clean fun. I highly recommend the book.
