Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley. This parody of Good Night Moon is groovy baby! There are a few passages that might not be as child appropriate if you are a conservative, but it is a lot of fun. The author does a great job picking out things to highlight, such as streaking, lunch boxes, and pong. A great book to pull when you are tired from all the kung foo fighting. Goodnight '70s from Peter Stein is an adult parody of a children's classic, Goodnight Moon. It is cute and will appeal to many people who remember the '70s, even if a bit hazy. I bumped my rating up a bit because people were rating and reviewing negatively based on it not being a very good children's book. This isn't a children's book, that is like criticizing a vegan cookbook for not telling me when to plant my seeds. It is a cookbook, not a gardening book. Likewise, this is an adult's comic book, not a children's, so to criticize it for being a poor example of what it never set out to be is asinine at best. Having defended the book on that basis, it was, for me, a little uneven. Some of the verses flowed fairly well while others seemed forced and didn't roll off the tongue very well. Since this is more of a fun nostalgic book for baby boomers than either a serious attempt at verse or a children's book, I can forgive the flow a bit. The nostalgia element is there and that is why people will want to read/look at this book. I would recommend this for people who like tongue-in-cheek nostalgia trips. I can imagine this being given as a gift more often than someone buying it for themselves. It is so short that the buyer will likely read the book in the store (for those who still use physical stores) then think about a friend or relative that would like it and get it for them. Reviewed from a copy made available by the publisher via NetGalley. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Illustrated and packaged à la Margaret Wise Brown's Goodnight Moon, Goodnight '70s turns the classic children's book into a baby boomer's ode to the far out 1970s. It's the perfect gift for anyone nostalgic for the good old days of bell-bottoms, disco balls, and 8-track tapes. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
