Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 1-Line-and-crayon drawings in soft tones depict a multicultural cast of cartoon children enjoying a day at a country golf course. Park animals, including a bluebird that appears on every page, creatively assist, but are less successfully rendered than the cheery golfers. The authors use simple sentences in large type for beginning readers, who may be forgiving of the lack of plot. Details like a carp retrieving a golf ball from a pond may please youngsters, but there is little information about the sport or how to play it.

What a charming book...and quite fun to read. It is a great book for the beginning reader. My first-grader loves that she can read it herself. The illustrations are so colorful and fun, even my 2 year old is captivated by the pictures. A great find!

My boys love the book, they want to read every night. They love to find tweeter the bird on each page. The book does a nice job at making Golf sound FUN, obviously the most important thing for your child to learn.
