5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully Written!, January 8, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Something Else (Paperback)

This book offers children a subtle message about friendship and the acceptance of others' differences. Also, the cute illustrations make it easy for younger children to follow the storyline. My 2 year old loves me to read this book to her over and over again. Well worth the money!

5.0 out of 5 stars Everybody needs to read this !!!!, January 15, 2007

Steffi (Omaha, NE USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Something Else (Paperback)

Awesome book about tolerance.

Little something else is always left out because he is different. When another strange ceature shows up, something else rejects him at first, but (after a little thinking) finally makes the right decision and a great friendship starts.

Bittersweet. Ironic. Touching without the usual heaviness of Politically Correct children's books.
