A review by suvata
The Trumpet of the Swan by E.B. White

4.0

I did a quick read of this book to help my grandson with a book report. I can’t believe how much I enjoyed it. E.B. White had a way of making animals come to life. I thought it was magical but I can see why it might be a difficult read for a third grader. At the same time, I believe it’s important for children to read classic literature even though the terminology and language has changed a lot since when the book was written. I think it gives them a sense of history.
