Book Reviews of The Best Story
Book Review: A tall tale combined with whimsical drawings makes for a hilarious story
Summary: 5 Stars
When Quantz stops to pet a big red dog, he gets fleas - and when he trades them for a talking uncle, too much talk provides yet more troubles. He keeps trading up - until he reaches a surprising end. A tall tale combined with whimsical drawings makes for a hilarious story spiced with Britt Spencer's zany drawings. Eileen Spinelli's THE BEST STORY is enhanced by Anne Wilsdorf's fun drawings as it tells of a library contest for the best story written. A girl believes she'll win - but what elements contribute to a 'best' story line? Her survey of action, drama, and writing elements is inspirational and fun.
