Book Description

Alphonse and his readers investigate shapes. Alphonse, in his attempts to paint a Valentine, creates a square, a circle and a triangle by mistake. His frustration builds and so does the humour and silliness of the situation. Finally the elusive heart is painted by Alphonse's supportive little side-kick (who happens to be a mouse).

4 out of 5 stars Fun to read aloud- one a few Valentine Books for young child.......2000-02-08

This book is great fun to read to 3-6 year olds. It reinforces knowledge of shapes and displays a sense of humor. It is essential to practice reading the book before reading aloud. My kindergarten students loved it! Some students memorized it, "reading" every page with expression! It is a wonderful gift for Valentine's Day!

Book Description

Wherever my father puffs out his cheeks and plays the bagpipes, my brothers go to visit a friend. Our dog creeps under the bed, the horses flatten their ears, the hens cluck. And I cover my ears. But one special night everyone listened when my father played his pipes. For the youngest member in of the family, the ceilidh is almost spoiled. She has been judged old enough to help, but too young to stay up like her brothers, or wear a kilt, or dance until dawn. But when the bagpipes sound from the far hills she is there - hiding in the hay- watching, listening. And on a night twinkling with fireflies, one small girl's brave Highland heart responds to her father and the ancient spell his music weaves.

4 out of 5 stars Brave Highland Heart.......2000-02-16

The book looks at the dilema of a wee lass, unable to attend the ceilidh[party] It shows her determination to be in on things. The illustrations clearly show that the artist knows about bagpipes and pipers. The drawings are very accurate. Also about kids and their feelings. The final illustration speaks to that great, childlike joy of being let in on the ceilidh, after she went thru the range of feelings as her Dad piped his heart out. Great for anyone wanting to introduce their wee ones to the pipes and the Maritimes approach to a good time.

1 out of 5 stars Oversimplified.......2004-09-09

This book has been oversimplified, which makes it dull and boring. It is nothing like the original. It is very repitious and does not allow for the children to really understand the moral of the story.

Nice try...but this is not a winner.

      Tomorrow is Christmas, and all the animals are boasting to little Pippin the pig about the important gifts their VERY-great-grandparents gave to the special baby that was born in a stable long ago. When Pippin wants to know what the pigs gave, the animals scoff - what could a pig have given a holy child? Dejected, Pippin heads out alone into a raging snow storm. There he meets a lost mother and baby, and leads them to the warmth of the barn. And in caring for this family in need, the animals see that giving of yourself is the best Christmas gift of all.

            5 out of 5 stars Most enjoyable. My children loved it........1998-08-24

            A zany riot of language and image. My children were going around the house for days mouthing "Finsterisms." I recommend the book without reservation for children and adults alike. Neither you nor your kids will soon forget the adventures of Finster and Holly Berry.
