Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
Reviewed with Tracey Campbell Pearson's Little Bo-Peep

PreS. Nursery rhymes are a natural for the board-book set, and Campbell sensibly sets them in a child's home rather than in a Mother Goose fantasy land. Hector shows a toddler dressing a large, patient dog in a green hooded sweatshirt, a scarf, and a sock. When the dog leaps upon the child's parents, they are not amused, so the dog beats a retreat. The child follows and cuddles up to him for comfort. Set at night, Bo-Peep features a toddler first seen dropping two stuffed lambs over the railing of the crib and bawling over the lost sheep. Both parents come to the rescue, one to pick up the wailing child, the other to retrieve the wayward stuffies. Soon the baby and sheep are tucked into bed again, but the last scene shows the toddler again dropping the lambs over the railing of the crib. Even a young child can catch the humor, especially as the joke is on the parents. The story begs to be reread an in unending cycle, but even the most indulgent parents have their limits. Pearson's soft-edge drawings, washed with gentle colors, will appeal to young children, who love to watch their peers in action. Carolyn Phelan

5.0 out of 5 stars Hector is a pleasure..., March 25, 2007
By C. Kane (Westchester County, New York) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
For lovers of Bernese Mt. Dogs and very small children, "Hector Protector" is a wonderful introduction of this formidible looking dog to small tots. This book illustrates the wonderful temperament of the breed as well as the trouble it can get into because of its loving nature and large size! My grandson immediately imagined the 'Queen' to be Grandma and the man on the sofa to be 'Grandpa'. My grandson frequently brings me the book to read to him and at 15 months is now repeating some of the simple verses. I do wish I had a Bernie for him to cuddle with....
