I was searching for a story book, something that is a bit out of the way of usual stories that we read to our kids, and eventually, a friend of mine suggested this book. Since it deals with a scarecrow protecting a field of strawberries, and strawberries being my boy’s favorite fruit, it became an instant hit in our household. The drawings are absolutely adorable: at first glance, simplistic, but so rich in color and filled with details, which my boy and I utilize in many different ways, like learning about all the animals that are visible in the book, or all the utensils that the scarecrow is decorated with. Overall, what I wanted to say was that for us, the book offers so much more than a simple story with pictures. It is educational, as well as amusing, which is what counts.
