Reviews

[D'Anne]

A story about a turtle and a bear who, due to lax supervision, pig out on cookies. The story basically encourages kids to be greedy and teaches them that there will always be more cookies. Dumb.

This was a pretty good Franklin book with no whining or fighting among the friends as often the books have. Franklin and Bear love to bake and they made cookies. Franklin's mom suggested they save some for their little sisters. They do put some back for the girls but then end of eating them. When all is said and done when the girls get home there is no cookies but the boys decide to have the girls help make more cookies. There is even a cookie recipe in the back.

Es una de mis historias favoritas, me parece muy chistoso como comen y comen galletas, tal vez lo unico malo es que no hay una enseñanza en todo esto.
