tamara's review
Did not finish @ Page 26
Who is the audience for this book? The stories are written for 5-year-olds I think, but the vocabulary is definitely not suited for that age group.
I lost it at the story of Aung San Suu Kyi. At best, her actions can be called questionable. Whatever her status may be, I don’t think it’s a good thing to write about killing Rohingya people in a bedtime story for young children.
The idea of the book was good, I absolutely love the drawings, but the stories are absolutely lacking and not fitting for the intended audience.
Edit: I stand corrected, the book is for somewhat older children. More for 7 and 8 year olds. My point at drawing the line at genocide still stands.
