Watt's writing is accessible, capturing the bug's journey through denial, anger, bargaining, sadness, and finally, acceptance. The bug's experiences mirror those of readers who may have faced loss in their own lives, making the book a valuable tool for starting conversations about grief and coping mechanisms with children. This book would have been a valuable book when my kids were younger, and our beloved cat had to be put to sleep.
The illustrations in "Bug in a Vacuum" are vibrant and expressive, perfectly complementing the text and enhancing the emotional depth of the story. The use of color and detail helps to convey the bug's changing emotions and environments it encounters within the vacuum cleaner.
Overall, "Bug in a Vacuum" is a touching and thought-provoking book that offers a gentle exploration of loss and resilience. It is a valuable addition to any library, providing comfort and understanding for readers of all ages.

LibrarianDest | 37 reseñas más. | Jan 3, 2024 | Imagine my horror upon opening a brand new library book and finding it ripped. Ripped! Then I realized it's all part of Melanie Watt's cleverness. How cheeky.
I don't know how familiar young children are with the slimy salesman stereotype, but it's funny nonetheless, even if it is basically an infomercial turned into a book.

LibrarianDest | 144 reseñas más. | Jan 3, 2024 | I found this a little annoying, but there's no doubt in my mind that some little ones will think it's hilarious. And there's a sort of meta-textual lesson in it, too, I guess.

LibrarianDest | 23 reseñas más. | Jan 3, 2024 | I am sure of the intended audience for this Children's book. I think it would be best read aloud and eliciting lots of feedback from the child audience to make it at all exciting. I find Scaredy Squirrel quite annoying, especially his pursuit of the "perfect" in everything Although he does have to make some compromises, none of his friends question his motivations. I think a more open discussion of the need to compromise when faced with obstacles to perfection could be better explored.

In this book Scaredy Squirrel, who is scared of pretty much everything, tries to plan a perfect Christmas that doesn't have abominable snowmen, pointy elves or toothy nutcrackers. I liked the book, it was happy and funny. It is just as good as the other Scaredy Squirrel books.½
