Kids Like Us
Kids Like Us by Carole Lexa Schaefer was a really great book. It shows a group of kids who are playing with their toys in a classroom. As they are playing imaginative games, the illustrator Pierr Morgan, draws scenes over the children playing. One example was the children as firefighters saving a family in a fire. Another was them all acting as dinosaurs. I really liked that they kids were able to use their imaginations in so many different ways and play together. The book used color to catch the reader's attention and point out the important, exciting parts. The writer also uses many colorful words like "Shooshh" and "Squirt" which I think the reader could have a lot of fun with when reading the book to children. I also liked how much the children seemed to know about so many different things and subjects even though they were so young.
