Freckleface Strawberry
review 1: I now know that Freckleface Strawberry is a recurring character. I picked this book up because of the "bully" theme. I have a collection in my library that I call the Peace Collection. These books provide stories and teaching lessons to promote Peace in the world, as well as practical tips on dealing with bullies. This book does not provide a practical tip. It was disappointing to read that Freckleface's plan was to imagine her way out of the dodgeball terror but simply end up as the tiny knot of the last body on the floor. She is surprised when the ball doesn't actually hurt... but really when a mean bully like Patrick plays the ball does hurt. That is the point of the story and Freckleface doesn't provide an effective means of dealing with her bully. We don't sim... moreply have a little chat and suddenly start playing with the bully later that afternoon. I'm not a fan of this Julianna Moore series of books.
review 2: I read this book because it had some great reviews. I wanted to read it out loud to a group of girls at the bookstore I work at. The story was very disjointed and unbelievable. The grammer was not even the way a five year old talks, it was more preschool age. I decided not to waste everyones time by reading this book and I found a different book to read out loud. Julianne better stick to acting. less

Better than I expected for an actress writing a children's book. Cute main character.

SUCH cute illustrations and a rather adorable story. Looks can be deceiving.
