Peter and the Wolf by Sergei Prokofiev
4.0
Peter and the Wolf
Brief summary Classic retelling of the symphonic children’s classic
Annotation - This is a book that must be pre-read and practiced before reading aloud. The unusual sounds the animals make to imitate the instruments in the symphony take some time to work through so it sounds natural.
Age appropriateness 3-5 years
Connection to six early literacy skills
Phonological awareness - This book uses a lot of different sounds to imitate animals that may not be what children have heard before, and that is a good thing.
Opinion - The pictures are intricate and well done, the story as retold is good, but I don’t think children will end up enchanted with this classic tale from this book.
