Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
PreS-Gr. 2. This simple story begins with a boy seeing a playground slide for the first time. He thinks, perhaps, it's a big metal reclining chair. A crew of friendly kids sets him straight as they demonstrate sliding, complete with screams and yells. When the boy's turn comes, he dreads every step up the ladder, sits frozen for a terrified moment at the top, and screams all the way down. But after landing, he announces, "I LOVE IT!" Young children will enjoy watching the boy learn what they already know and remembering the agony and the thrill of their first slide. Utterly simple, the illustrations are broad, cartoonlike line drawings filled in with areas of solid color. A face consists of little more than two dots and a straight or circular mouth, but that doesn't limit its expressiveness. Padded covers and heavy pages will work well for little fingers.
