Summary: You'll be amazed!
Comment: This book tells the story of a lazy boy whose selfish plan backfires. I read this to a year 2 class studying a unit on Japan and they were spellbound. The story is exciting and the illustrations are beautifully detailed with many elements of Japanese culture. I thoroughly recommend this book for schoolchildren and kidults alike.

Summary: The Boy of the Three Year Nap
Comment: The Boy of the Three Year Nap is a book with tips for reality, mischeviousness, and humor. I believe this book is a humorous book but it doesn't have very good life lessons. When I read this story I vaguely got the impression that life always goes your way. But I know it does not. The boy who was lazy ended up marrying a nice, rich girl because of a lie he started. He never worked hard or anything. I think young children might get the wrong idea about life and honesty. So I would wouldn't recommend for young children to read this book because they might be in for a big dissappointment.

Summary: Used as a Thematic Unit!
Comment: I loved this book so much that I developed a Thematic Unit around it. The book has some of the most outstanding pictures one has ever seen. Through these pictures we get to see Japan's culture, customs, and landscape. The story is great too. Through this book I taught Reading, English, Math, Social Studies, Science, Art, and used the internet to go on a field trip. This is a wonderful book and keeps the reader guessing. Enjoy!
