Pulling Together by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Jennifer Crain
Pulling Together by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Lila assumes her grandma made a mistake when she knitted her a 3-neck poncho. As the day turns blustery cold, Lila learns a lesson of gratitude and friendship as her and her friends stave off a bullyish boy.
This book would be perfect for a discussion of inclusion, taking chances (and elders sometimes know better) and getting along with peers. The colorful illustrations enhance to story as well. Perhaps too wordy for the youngest listeners, would be a delightful read/listen for slightly older preschoolers and kindergarten aged children.
