The story is very clever and the main character is very strong minded and witty. I loved how the voice of the main character never faltered. She always had a south-western tone to her voice. This is a great book for a teacher to do a lesson on voice of character or how to stay persistent with how a character sounds. I can also see myself putting my own future children to bed while reading them this story. It is a fun and adventurous story that has a few lessons to tell. ( ) Rodeo Red and her canine pal, Rusty the stuffed dog, are inseparable. Until, that is, the day that Sideswiping Sam - AKA, Rodeo's squalling baby brother - steals the pooch and refuses to return him. Rodeo does everything she can to get her plaything back, but until her Aunt Sal sends her a new plaything, she has nothing with which she can bargain... The common childhood experience of adjusting to a new sibling and getting into a conflict with them over a plaything is given a western flavor in Rodeo Red, which is author Maripat Perkins' picture-book debut. The language here is inventive and fun, provided one doesn't mind a little dialect and slang, and the artwork by Molly Idle, who was awarded a Caldecott Honor for her Flora and the Flamingos, is colorful and cute. My only real qualm is that I think the mom (I mean Sheriff) is a little unsympathetic in the story, in that she allows the baby to steal Rodeo's boon companion, and makes no effort to set things right. Leaving that aside, this is one I would recommend to anyone looking for entertaining new sibling and/or sibling rivalry stories for younger children. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
