Amos & Boris by William Steig
4.0
Tonight both kids wanted to hear the story. Amos is a mouse and Boris is a whale. They make unlikely friends and yet each is perfectly suited to help the other out of a life threatening situation. I got teary-eyed reading this. It was very touching.
The art work almost looked like water colors and maybe it was. It fit in with the water theme perfectly. There were many blues and grays like the ocean.
I also loved the word choices. The kids repeated some of the beautiful phrases used in the story and he had some great vocabulary words in there also.
This was a joy to read and the kids enjoyed it too. They gave it 5 stars.
