Preschool Teacher,
By Karen K (Watertown, SD) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Red and Slim One Hot Day (Hardcover)
Last month at preschool was our introduction of the Letter S. So Red & Slim were the featured guest book of the day. I wish I could of videotaped the faces as I read the book to my morning and afternoon class. It's official in the eyes of my preschool children that Red and Slim are two cool dudes.
For what it's worth, I have read hundreds of books to children and the children let you know with their faces and bodies which books are a hit and which ones just don't cut it. You made my day! Listed below are the things I like about this book: 1. R & S follow each other in the alphabet. It's a reinforcement of the letters that they are learning. 2. In my experience children love pets: They identify with cats and dogs the most. 3. Utopia Joe, your characterization and detail in facial and body expression is superb: Each time I read it I noticed something new that I had not noticed in the prior reading. 4. You identify a problem and Red & Slim have to come up with a solution of teamwork to get to the water. 5. Water & friendships are vital to life. You need both to stay alive. Some children even grinned and appeared to catch the end phrase. "Your all wet! The next day I presented Red & Slim to my three and four year old classes and Red & Slim made their day great! The book tended to be a little on the long side but they paid attention through it all. One little boy in our afternoon class was having great difficulty in being a friend the day the book was presented. At the end of the day my wish was that I had another "Red & Slim: Stop! Time Out, That hurts!" to read to soothe and erase the negative behavior. Take Care , God Bless and KEEP WRITING, KEEP ILLUSTRATING! Don't stop now. As a teacher, parents & grandparents need GREAT books to nourish our children.

This book is so amazing that I took it to my niece right away.
This book is all single syllable words to keep kids into the story instead of stumbling on words. This concept should get kids reading faster & enjoy it!..... AMAZING!
