review 1: i loved, loved the illustrations in this book... just based on them, i'd rate this book much higher, but the story was a bit complex, filled with a great deal of symbolism which was lost on it's intended audience. it seemed to make the reader work harder than they should to understand the story, which in turn became a distraction. interestingly, the author is president Obama's sister, and the story is one their mother told as they grew up.
review 2: Ah, how I wish there was A LADDER TO THE MOON, where my grandmother would take me to have an adventure. Alas, you can only experience that in LADDER TO THE MOON by Maya Soetoro-Ng.This book is fairly long for the typical picture book. It is also quite deep in subject matter. I am referring to the tsunami, towers i... moren an earthquake, and praying "to make the fighting stop.” The illustrations are, as one reviewer mentioned, “dreamy”, and whimsical. I first want to read this once I found out the author is Barak Obamas half-sister. I also loved the cover. AR 4.2 less
