When Jonah lays claim to the local playground, declaring himself king, the other children all swear loyalty to him. All, that is, save Lennox, who declares herself queen. So begins a royal war, as the two children each strive for dominance over the playground, and all their peers. Eventually they are left to their own devices, as their "subjects" desert them in favor of more amusing play. Then Jonah and Lennox make peace, and all is happy again. Until Augustine decides she must be queen... An amusing picture-book examination of playground politics amongst young children, Rulers of the Playground is the second children's book from author/artist Joseph Kuefler, who made his debut with Beyond the Pond. All in all, I found the story here amusing, and suspect that young children, who are no doubt quite familiar with "king of the hill" type games, will as well. I also enjoyed the illustrations, which capture the humor of the story quite well, especially in the depiction of the growing discontent of the other children. I don't know that I loved this quite as much as Keufler's debut, which was really quite magical, but it is nevertheless an engaging tale. Recommended to anyone looking for entertaining playground stories that explore the social dynamics of the kindergarten and primary school set. näyttää 5/5 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
One morning, Jonah decided to become ruler of the playground. Everyone agreed to obey his rules to play in King Jonah's kingdom . . . Everyone except for Lennox . . . because she wanted to rule the playground, too. A gloriously rendered, hilariously deadpan tale of playground politics. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

I do wonder how the book would have turned out if our two rulers had tried their best to rule benevolently instead of just grasping for power! ( )
