The Love Curse of the Rumbaughs by Jack Gantos

The Love Curse of the Rumbaughs by Jack Gantos

My rating: 1 of 5 stars


This is just not my type of story. It may be excellent, but not for me. For reference: I listened to the first half of the first audiobook CD.

Me . . . Jane by Patrick McDonnell

Me . . . Jane by Patrick McDonnell

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I think this book is well-written and very attractive, but I must admit I was also disappointed. It stopped, without telling anything about what Jane did as an adult. Yes, perhaps kids will be interested enough to try to find out more - or the person who reads the book to the kids will explain more. But I would loved to have a few more pages with pictures of her living and working with the chimps in Africa. Maybe there is an explanation somewhere that tells why the book stopped so soon. Sigh.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Gorgeous pictures; interesting concept; good potential for further projects for kids; but the most interesting part for me was the section at the end that annotates the pictures.
