The 3 Little Dassies by Jan Brett
5.0
OMG! I nearly died from cuteness looking at these little Dassies. They are a groundhog looking animal in Namibia. This is basically the 3 little pigs set in Namibia with Dassies being the pigs and the eagle being the wolf.
I love eagles, so it feels weird to think of the eagle as the bad guy, but here that is how it happens. Jan tells of how in Namibia, the animals really do live in the stones to be protected from the eagles. It’s a real life analogy.
The kids went crazy with this story. They simply loved how cute these Dassies were in clothes and with their eyes. They didn’t want them to be eaten. We love this story in our house. The kids both gave this 5 stars and they like this better than the 3 Little Pigs story now.
I’ll be sad when I have read all the Jan Brett books. I guess, I might just have to read them all again.
