In this book, Amy Krouse Rosenthal uses 'math' to show how life works. For instance, she does rather factual things like ""red + blue = purple" but more often does things that are more subjective, such as "smile + ocean wave = beach." Rosenthal also uses this opportunity to talk about positive behaviors (e.g., "I'm sorry + hug = sincere apology" and "practice + practice = learning"). One of my favorite formulas was put side-by-side with another to give readers realistic expectations: "good days + bad days = real life" and "once upon a time + happily ever after = pretend." This is a lovely book, with illustrations that capture the charm of the text and its sentiment. I could easily see a caregiver reading this with a child(ren) during a lapsit for those warm fuzzy feelings it imparts. It could also make a nice gift for a preschool or kindergarten graduation. ( ) "This Plus That, Life's Little Equations puts themes together connected by a plus sign that equals something more "whole". "Violin + flute + saxophone + cello + trumpet + clarinet + percussion= symphony" is one example of a less abstract idea where there are themes such as: (every star in the sky + the sun + the moon) x my heart = love you to the infinite power. These are mostly life equations ranging from daily, manners, summer, bedtime and many others. I enjoyed the book but find it hard to write a critique about because it is hard to describe in terms of it being literature. It is entertaining, interactive, and beautifully illustrated. This Plus That: Life's Little Equations wasn't at all what I expected. Life's Little Equations probably should have tipped me off. This was a wonderful book with dos and don'ts here and there and just general rules like "sprinkles + anything = better" or "soul + words = literature" (truer words have never been spoken in my opinion). I loved each page and each rule was simply illustrated and not overdone. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
