5.0 out of 5 stars
Great read aloud! My six, ten and 12 year old loved it!,
By
This review is from: Mr. McFadden's Hallowe'En (Piper) (Hardcover)
This is a GREAT Halloween read! I have a Rumer Godden collection and picked up this book as I enjoy "seasonal" books to read to my children at the appropriate times. I had to employ a bit of a Scottish accent to read this, as the story takes place in Scotland and some of the wording reflects this. My children just loved it. It's a particularly lovely story for girls, although my sons really liked it as well. My daughter, as I picked her up from school, asked me to start reading it again as soon as we got home, as she hadn't been able to think of anything else. I loaned it to a friend who read it to her three daughters, and they loved it. My friend said she thought it might be her new favorite book. She then asked to loan it to one of HER friends, whose children loved it as well.
Again, it's a great book to read to your kids at Halloween time, and I'm sure it will become an annual tradition with us. There is such an excellent moral to the story, without being preachy. It's a great book on many levels. Rumer Godden had a gift. I highly recommend it! |
