This book is a joy to read and examine. Elisa Kleven knows just how to combine words to make them seem magical. And the illustrations -- the art work is fabulous! She uses mixed media collage in a way that makes the characters seems real.A great book for ages 4 - 104! I love it!
Hooray A Pinata

My 4-year-old daughter and I both loved this story. Theillustrations are colorful and lively and the dialogue is easy for ayoung child to follow. Hooray A Pinata is a great book to read when you're planning a child's birthday party. The story is about a little girl who chooses a little dog pinata to be used as a game for her birthday party. She ends up becoming friends with it and decides that she doesn't want to stuff it with candy and break it open. Her friend is disspointed because he loves playing pinata so he buys her a new huge pinata that they can use instead. A note of interest: the book explains that pinatas orginated in Italy. I didn't know that!
