| Rechenka's Eggs (Paperstar) by Putnam Juvenile wrong country |
| Lovely book. A major problem is that the author is confused about the pysanka and the country she is writing about. The pysanka is a UKRAINIAN Easter egg. Russians do not have pysanky (pl.). Surely by now people should know the difference between Ukraine and Russia (you wouldn't confuse Ireland and England). The pysanka is a most special Ukrainian ritual object. The author should have done her homework. |
| Rechenka's Eggs (Paperstar) by Putnam Juvenile Simple Message, Beautifully Delivered |
Evertything about this book is wonderful...the illustrations, the message, everything! Set in Russia, Polacco delivers another powerful piece of writing with this poignantly beautiful story about a woman who befriends an injured goose. The illustrations are gorgeous and the words go from Polacco's pen directly to your heart.
I teach third grade and use this in my classroom, although my most recent purchase of this title was as a gift for a friend's child. Don't miss this one....would make a wonderful addition to anyone's Easter basket! |
