Kenny's Window,
By
This review is from: Kenny's Window (Reading Rainbow) (Paperback)
Kenny's Window is a very interesting book. I have always been a fan of Maurice Sendak's illustrations, but he is also a good author as well as a brilliant illustrator. A young boy named Kenny has a dream where he is in a garden. One half of the garden has the sun shining and the other half the glowing moon. There is a tree covered with white blossoms and a train. But there is also a four-legged rooster who gives Kenny seven questions to answer. If he answers them all correctly, he will be allowed to live in the garden. The book deals with Kenny's quest in trying to decipher the questions, and maybe learning a little about himself. The illustrations that accompany this book are not as lavish as some of Sendak's other works like "Where the Wild Things Are" and "Outside Over There", yet their beautiful simplicity capture the mood of the story. Very young children may not understand some of the hidden meanings found in the story. I'd recommend this book for 6 to 7 year olds who are starting to get more out of books than just looking at the pictures. Kenny's Window is an enjoyable read.
