Levis, Caron Stuck with the Blooz, PICTURE BOOK. Harcourt
Children’s Books, 2012. $16.99.
What do you do when you feel down in the dumps and “the Blooz” comes to visit
you? When one little girl gets a
visit she does her best to figure out why the Blooz is so sad and together they
come up with multiple ways to make the Blooz cheer up and go away.
I wasn’t immediately drawn to this book
because the cover wasn’t particularly appealing, but I ended up really enjoying
it. It was a really fun way to demonstrate a fairly abstract concept. It gave strong examples of how to pull
yourself up when you get sad.
Sometimes it takes a long time to find the thing that will work, but you
just have to keep trying. It also helps to have a friend who is willing to give
support for you find a way to make it through to a beautiful, sunny day.
EL - ADVISABLE.
