Read to Pieces
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This was a huge hit with both our 2 year old and 4 year old. The illustrations work like a comic book, so non-readers can figure out most of the story. Every 2 pages is a single "chapter" with blocks of text under each frame (about 12 frames per page) with narrative and dialogue in the frames themselves. The narrative was perfect for our 2 year old to hear, and our 4 year old enjoyed the dialogue, which was mostly simple humor about the story or frame. It's by far the most accessible Robin Hood we've found, giving the entire Robin Hood story arc rather than just Robin meets Marian, or Robin meets Little John. Candlewick is an excellent publisher and the paperback is pretty sturdy (although we have read ours to pieces, and so I'm looking for a replacement!)
Wonderful!

This book is absolutely fabulous! I was very interested in learning more about the famous tales of Robin Hood, but all the books about him were very advanced and I didn't understand many of the phrases. When I found this book, I read it and I was so pleased beause it is exactly what I wanted to find:tales about the adventures of Robin Hood and I was too happy to describe that I could understand every word! If you want to read about Robin Hood but cannot yet understand the advanced vocabulary of the writers from long ago, then this is the book for you!
