Summary: wonderfully lyrical
Comment: All about a spoiled kid who comes for a visit. Author writes a wonderfully lyrical story that provides fun for both the reader and listener. I especially liked the lesson to be learned of manners that manages to be imparted in such a fun way for kids.

Summary: Whistle a Happy Tune.....
Comment: When cousin Louie comes to visit Josette, he brings along his little French whistle that Grand-pere brought back for him from Paris. Josette likes the way it sounds, snappy and important when Louis plays it loudly. And Louis does play loudly. As he tells everyone, "I don't like sweet." "I don't like soft." Unfortunately, no one else likes Louie's shrill blasts, not the birds who fly away, frightened Fonfon, the poodle, baby Roland, who cries, or even Grand-pere, surprised right out of his bubble bath. But Louie finally goes too far when he scares Sheba, the cat. She arches her back, hisses, and swats that little French whistle right out of his hand. Now finally, a very patient Josette has her turn and she likes soft and sweet..... Carole Lexa Schaefer's simple and humorous text begs to be read aloud, and is peppered with marvelous sound effects and charming french colloquialisms. Emilie Chollat's illustrations dazzle with bright colors, bold and busy patterns, engaging facial expressions, and entertaining details. Perfect for youngsters 3-7, The Little French Whistle is a delightful, fun-filled read little ones will enjoy again and again.
