3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, May 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Dustin's Big School Day (Concept Books (Albert Whitman)) (Hardcover)
The "big surprise" that awaits Dustin at the end of this book is not nearly exciting enough for my kids (ages 5 and 4, one with Down syndrome). The book is wordy, and Dustin's "specialness" is emphasized, rather than downplayed as it was in the first Dustin book. He is shown going to all sorts of therapies and special educational help outside of the classroom. The photos are nice, but, overall, the story is a snore.
