I recently purchased this book for my 9-year-old niece. My family was having trouble getting her to practice reading, and I thought she might like to read the story of Dr. Martin Luther King on MLK Day. She sat down and read the entire book without complaining, and when I told her that I was going to get her other Papa Lemon books, she wrote me the following e-mail:
I WOOD LOVE TO READ THE PAPA LEMON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE KARLEE
So it appears we still need to work on spelling and grammar, but as far as fun stories for kids and adults who read to and with kids, Papa Lemon books are great. It’s also a nice way for kids to learn respect for diversity and other generations.
In the interest of full disclosure, I am a friend of the author’s cousin, who is the director of marketing for Papa Lemon books. I believe in the good that the books can do or I would not be able to recommend them so highly to my family or other kids.
