A trio of children go to visit their grandfather, who was a vaudeville performer in his youth. Their grandfather laments the passing of the "song and dance" days, but he still pulls out all his old vaudeville gear and puts on a one man variety show for his grandchildren. The children are genuinely delighted by their grandfather's performance, and he is equally pleased to be able to share a piece of his personal history with his descendants. Though this story has a sort of melancholy nostalgia to it, I think that ultimately what the grandfather was missing was performing for an audience, so that in addition to passing along memories of his performance to his grandchildren, he was also able to realize that he didn't necessarily miss performing for a large audience, just a grateful one. ( ) This is a fun book that is all focused on grandpa. He was a song and dance man that showed his grandchildren the attic where everything is kept. He puts his gear on and begins to put a show on for the children. They are very amazed by the moves and tricks that grandpa does. Once grandpa finalizes his small show, he comes to realize how much he misses doing dance. This story provides a fresh reminder that certain things that are done may bring back memories. This fun illustrated book is about a grandfather that reminisces about the days back when he danced on the Vaudeville stage. You can use this book in a social studies lesson to have the students write and conduct an interview of a member of their family and ask questions about back in their day or when they were your students' age. This was an extremely nice book to read. What caught my eye the most was the illustrations. There was always bright colors and unique patterns. Sometimes the illusions the illustrator gave made it seem like the grandpa was time traveling and floating in the air. I thought this was very unique because though he did not actually "time travel," he looked back on memories he faced when he was younger. This story was extremely cute and one I think students would enjoy in a classroom. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
