My Philosophy

My Philosophy: I believe that every good children's book meets the following three criteria: (1) good illustrations, (2) a meaningful plot with conflict, and (3) a sense of wonder or imagination. On this blog I will rate all of the children's books I read based on these criteria.

Big Bouffant



Author: Kate Hosford
Illustrator: Holly Clifton-Brown

One-Sentence Plot Summary: A little girl wants to be different from her classmates, so she comes to school in a bouffant hairdo and convinces all her classmates to do the same.

This story is creative and fun to read. Annabelle has a lot of character. Her mission to be different drives the story forward.

The author shows some great creativity with how Annabelle accomplishes her goal of having a huge bouffant hairdo. The pictures are excellent. Very expressive.
