3 Very Silly Book with Zero Appeal
A little girl named Daisy wakes up one day to discover she has, for no real explained reason, turned into a chicken. Her parents do no seem at all shocked when their daughter the chicken clucks into the kitchen for breakfast. She turns down her usual egg in favor of picking at some corn flakes. She goes out to the bus only to be refused admittance. The story goes on from here.
There are so many delightful easy to read books being developed for beginning readers. There are books that do not talk down to beginning readers. These stories have real plot lines and tell a story. This is not one of those delightful books. Any book needs to explain the why and how. The reader is never told how or why Daisy woke up as a chicken; or why she turned back into a little girl that evening. I am willing to suspend all belief if the story is good and the writer allows me to do that.
