Bright, Paul The Hole Story PICTURE BOOK. Anderson Press, 2017. $16.99. Content:
G.
Two holes have to leave their piece of swiss cheese. They find
themselves at a royal palace and cause all kinds of mischief from holes in
socks to pitchers to underwear. Will they ever find a home will they be useful and
not cause problems for everyone? Big bright illustrations.
This is a strange story and it seems a bit disjointed. It would
be would be a more engaging read for children if there were objects and the
students could guess if the hole on that object would be a good thing or a bad
thing. That would help to get the readers involved and thinking about holes in
a new way. In this story version things get a bit muddled, like when the
princess crashes into the compost heap.
