Cute book, needs adult assistance
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
We bought this book at a local literature festival, where we also had the opportunity to get the book signed by the author and illustrator. It was a great experience for my six-year-old, who didn't know what authors looked like (regular people in glasses, in case you were wondering.) The book is great fun, about a man and woman who marry but don't have any vowels so th cnt cmmnct vr wll. Things improve when allan and ellen are born, and on it goes. There are many clever phrases, and a good mix of simple and complicated words. Adults may be needed to decode the early parts of the book, which my proficient six-year-old reader stumbled on due to lack of vowels. Bright and cute illustrations. Great book, I highly recommend.
