Challenged Book

This book was selected to be included on a banned book list. While taking Children's Literature at West Virginia State College I was given the opportunity from Mr. Samples to explore the possible reasons why this book was challenged. After unlimited amount of time researching this book I never found a concrete answer why. Also, I did not find who had selected the book to be on the list. I did however have my own opinion of the possible reason. One of the illustrations in the book showed two cousins sleeping together, each were of the opposite sex. This would be the only "flaw" this book would have, overall this is a great book. I would highly recommend using this book with your students in a classroom. This book celebrates the meaning of family with hugs and more hugs. Please enjoy reading and re-reading The Relatives Came.

The Relatives Came

I gave The Relatives Came a five star rating because it is a good book for five and up. It is about relatives visiting other
relatives and when they got there they had a good time together.
I recommend ages five and up. If you want to find out what happens, read the book.

My Favorite Part

My favorite part of the story in The Relatives Came is when they were hugging for hours and hours. It made me think of my granddaddy visiting me on the weekend. We all hugged him for hours. My other favorite part in the story is when they were laughing and having a good time. This makes me think of when my granddaddy gave us candy. Then we all tried to pick him up. We laughed and laughed. We had a lot of fun.

Bambi's Fragrant Forset

Bambi's Fragrant Forest is based on the original story by Felix Salten.
Children will enjoy this story, because it is about a deer getting immune to its habitat and adjusting to everything. This book will be very interesting, and will keep your child reading.
Children can learn about adjusting to new things, and getting to like them.
This story is about a baby deer, and its mother in the forest. The baby deer's name is Bambi, and he goes around in the woods looking for new friends, but this experience is new to him, so he is very nervous.


I Like the Book

My favorite part of the story is when they traveled and they saw strange houses and bigger mountains. This part reminds me of when I was traveling to my cousin's house. I saw a baseball field and townhouse. It was beautiful too.
