St-Onge, Claire. (1987) Caillou: The Birthday Party. Canada: Chouette Publishing, Inc.
This story is adapted from the animated Caillou series. It tells the story of Caillou, a little boy who is 4 years old and is preparing to celebrate his birthday with a party. He helps his mom bake a cake and welcomes his friends to his party. Caillou is disappointed when he opens his grandmother's presents and sees that it's only a sweater. He is hoping that his parents get him a new dinosaur and is surprised when he opens his gift and inside is the dinosaur that he was hoping for.
This story was translated from its original French-Canadian. It is a nice story but lacks any great parts but it would be appealing to a child who is a fan of the original television series especially since the illustrations look just like the show. ( )
