Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. A near-perfect heartfelt story. As an adult I was fascinated by this book's illustrations (they are amazing). There are a couple of fold-out pages, and they really slam the feelings home. My daughter really liked it too. She hasn't asked for a re-read yet, but I expect her to. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. This was a beautiful children's book with gorgeous pictures that deals with loss and grief. The concept is a hard one to cover with children, especially little ones so this is one of those good introductory books to start off with although I noticed the feeling of guilt wasn't covered within the book like I think it should be.The writing was simple and clear but altogether it wasn't the story that really made this book. Instead the majority of this book could be told by the pictures from when the world went from colored to grayscale while slowly introducing colors back into the life of a child. Again due to the content material I think it was a noteworthy book for trying to reach out to children on a level they could understand. There were bits and pieces that didn't quite make sense to me as an adult but it doesn't take away from the book. **Received this book as part of the Early Reviewers at Librarything.com for free in exchange for a review** Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. First off, the hardcover book itself is nice. Thick, glossy pages make a nice feel in your hands as your read.The first pages are full of color with a happy feel. The way to balloon flies away was surprising and the pages after are now less full of the illustrations and they're muddier in color. Until the very end when Joey realized that just because his balloon is gone, doesn't mean he can't be happy remembering the good times they shared. "Then one day. In one second. Everything changed." Death can be that fast and reading about Joey and his struggles after his balloon flew away brought tears to my eyes. The stages of grief are illustrated as well as the feelings of "sad most of the time", "a lot of the time", and "some of the time". Until a trip to the park . . . "Once more. In one second. Everything changed." Tiffany has taken a hard subject and simplified it just enough. Along with Erwin's illustrations, this is a book deserving a spot in our school and home libraries. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. Tiffany Papageorge’s "My Yellow Balloon" tells the story of a boy named Joey and the balloon he brings home from a carnival. Joey loves his yellow balloon and takes it with him everywhere, until one day it floats away into the sky and is lost forever. Accompanied by beautiful illustrations by Erwin Madrid, the book discusses the stages of grief a child might feel at a loss-- including anger, confusion, and deep sadness.It’s a difficult task to delve into the topic of loss in a picture book without making it too heavy for children. Papageorge chooses to do this by not including a death in her story, but rather having Joey experience the stages of grief over the loss of his balloon. Adults will likely find Joey's long-term devastation over a latex balloon--which in the real world would have deflated long before he lost it-- illogical and bizarre, and certainly a poor comparison to the permanent loss of a loved one. However, the story provides a framework for a discussion on the serious emotions of grief a child might be feeling over any number of things, and can help him or her feel validated. The simplicity of Joey's loss allows him to be relatable to any child who is experiencing similar emotions, including those hurting over the loss of friends due to a move, those angry over a shift in family dynamics after divorce, or those feeling sadness for the loss of a beloved toy. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
