Editorial Reviews

Foreward Magazine

Play Lady lives in a small trailer in the middle of a lush urban garden that she tends. The children who visit her are of many cultures and colors, and one, Kayla, is in a wheelchair.

But one day the children are horrified and sad to discover that Play Lady is the victim of a hate crime. Vandals painted mean words on her trailer, broke her windows and threw trash in the yard. The children enlist their parents' help to make repairs and restore her house and yard, and when their surprised friend returns, it is back to play again.

The book begins a new anti-bias series that is designed to teach children new ways to know the people around them. The text is in both English and Spanish and there are discussion questions in the back of the book for parents, teachers, and other caregivers. The art is colorful and appealing. The book has important lessons for children, but is not preachy. We know Play Lady, with her serene countenance, as the children see her.


September, 1999
From The Critics
Play Lady and No Fair to Tigers are beautiful, child appropriate books. Many different kinds of children will see themselves and their lives reflected in these stories. They are just what we need to help young children explore the diversity in the world around them in a playful, child-centered way. These books fill a real niche because there is so little children's literature that accurately reflects the complexity of their lives.
