One of the 26 "twins" books written and drawn by author to introduce a variety of authentic cultures to children. Drawings can be copied, sketched and colored by readers as part of learning about Eskimos in a fun way. Child-appropriate and anthropologically correct, for its period. ( ) I read this to my seven and four year old boys and we all enjoyed it. There were a number of humorous scenes that the boys enjoyed throughly, and they also liked the glimpse into a life so different from there. The chapters can be a little long for reading out loud in one sitting but they are broken into sections which makes the readings a little easier to manage. The book is old, so it does have a dated feel (notice we're reading about Eskimos instead of Inuit and the other tribes!) but the writing is charming and there was very little that I felt like I needed to skip, reword, or gloss over. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieTwins series (book 10)
This is the true story of Menie and Monnie and their two little dogs, Nip and Tup. Menie and Monnie are twins, and they live far away in the North, near the very edge. They are five years old. Menie is the boy, and Monnie is the girl. But you cannot tell which is Menie and which is Monnie,-not even if you look ever so hard at their pictures! That is because they dress alike. When they are a little way off even their own mother can't always tell. And if she can't, who can? Sometimes the twins almost get mixed up about it themselves. And then it is very hard to know which is Nip and which is Tup, because the little dogs are twins too. Nobody was surprised that the little dogs were twins, because dogs often are. But everybody in the whole village where Menie and Monnie live was simply astonished to see twin babies! They had never known of any before in their whole lives. Old Akla, the Angakok, or Medicine Man of the village, shook his head when he heard about them. He said, "Such a thing never happened here before. Seals and human beings never have twins! There's magic in this." The name of the twins' father was Kesshoo. If you say it fast it sounds just like a sneeze. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
