Editorial Reviews

PreschoolGr. 1. This appealing beginning reader gives a little nod to what it means to be a good big sister. When Kate gets new ice skates for her birthday, she gives her old double-blade ones to her unenthusiastic little sister, Jen, and offers to teach her how to skate. Jen catches on right away, but Kate discovers that falling down is the only thing she does well with her new equipment. The type is large; the sentences short, with no more than a few words in each line on a page; and the double-page-spread watercolors are as delectable and sweet as the simple story.
