Review of
Ellie’s Best Beach Vacation Ever, by Marci and Elle
Fair ISBN 9780996363525
Five stars
Children love
their stuffed animals, they are cherished friends that are often assigned human
attributes. They are play and comfort mates, always there for them, a friend
that never does anything bad. My daughter would never go on any trip without
her “Fuzzy.”
Fuzzy friends
on a summer vacation is the theme of this book, Ellie the elephant and Pudgy
the penguin go on a fun vacation to a beach and they do all of the things that
one does there. They built an enormous sand castle, swim and snorkel in the
ocean, lounge and swim at the pool, eat a lot and sometimes just sit in a chair
and soak up some sun. The last pages have them watching the sun set over the
ocean.
The book is
largely made up of photos of the two main characters engaged in their actions.
Short segments of text at roughly the second grade reading level supplement the
action. Children will love this book and it will no doubt serve as a primer for
play actions that their favorite stuffed friends will engage in.
