review 1: What a gift Simona Ciralo had to be able to speak so profoundly of our life experience so simply and with so few words. The struggles we all feel at times - not fitting in with our family or peer groups and not getting our needs met from those around us. Then we find that exciting person that is SO NOT right for us. Which ends badly. And just when we give up and develop that prickly outer shell, we find that one person who is our missing half. Perhaps I am reading too much into this, but I like my assessment. Beautiful story, beautifully illustrated.
review 2: Thank you to "AFriendlyLibrarian" for the suggestion of this book! It is short and sweet - good for ECE level readers to talk about feelings and family and what the important things in life really a... morere. I also love that the main character is a cactus...especially one that is referred to as a male and has a pink flower on his head. Lots of opportunity for vocabulary building and dialogic reading! less
