Barbara's Reviews > Mine!: A Story of Not Sharing

As is the case for many youngsters, Sally has trouble sharing her things. When her mother tells her that her friend Nico is coming over to play and that she should put away anything she doesn't want to share with him, Sally takes extreme measures. She even stashes Mom away in the wardrobe, and when Eva, another friend, is due to arrive, she whisks Nico into the wardrobe as well. But there's a problem with all this hoarding. Sally is left with almost nothing and is filled with curiosity as to what's going on in that piece of furniture. It could be that maybe it's a good idea to share a thing or two. The expressive illustrations set against a background with soft colors attract readers' attention while the text delivers an important message in humorous fashion. That must have been a very spacious wardrobe.
