Peach & Blue

Summary: Lesson Plan
Review: This book makes for an excellent lesson plan, when teaching children about the differences between people, and about being compassionate and caring to one another. This book must be read with these deeper types of meaning in mind, as it is not just simply a story about a frog befriending a fruit. It is also a story which deals with the subject matter of death and dying, and reminded me of "The Fall of Freddy Leaf" by Leo Buscalia, and also somehow brought to mind the book "I'll Love You Forever", as this is a book which also adeptly deals with the cycle of life and death. I liked it very much, and Steve Johnsons' and Lou Fanchers' illustrations are beautifully done.
