review 1: The Miniature World of Marvin & James by Elise Broach, illustrated by Kelly Murphy – early chapter book – 2nd grade and up – Just love Elise Broach’s Masterpiece – I was curious to see how this book would work as an introduction to Masterpiece. I love how there isn’t explanation. There isn’t elaboration. There’s simply a story about two friends who have to adjust when one goes away for a week and the other is left behind. Wonderful beginning to a series, really hoping for more.
review 2: This story, based on the middle grade reader, Masterpiece by the same author, is a wonderful story of friendship and the worry of not being missed when friends are not around. James is going on vacation for a week and Marvin, the beetle, will miss James. But w
... moreill James miss Marvin while he is having fun at the beach? Told from Marvin's perspective, we learn that James has made new friends (which is a good thing since James had few friends before this based on the other novel) but worries James will no longer be his friend. This is a story that all young children can relate to and is told in a beautiful soft voice that is not petulant or spoiled. less
