This is a wonderful story about a little boy who is different. Tired of being teased by the other children, Davey finds a way to take advantage of his difference and use it to make the children see him differently and become his friends instead of his tormentors. Very cutre. Great pictures. Teaches a good lesson. ( )

My Thoughts:
Poor Davey doesn't seem to fit in. The other kids make fun of him and call him names. He can't play with them because his head is so big it gets in the way. Then he has an idea, he'll use his big head to stop the soccer ball from going into the net and help the soccer team win! Now he's part of the team and is friends with the other kids.

This is a fun story about accepting yourself and others no matter how different. I think it would be a great book for all young children. There is a lesson in this book that we all need to learn. It was well written and had lots of big colorful pages and was illustrated very well.

The children I had read the book were:
6 yr. old girl
She liked this book. ( )

I received an adorable children's book today called Davey Big Head: Dream Big by Peter J. Hayden. This is the story of Davey, a child who has an enormous head. Every time he tries to make friends he is made fun of because of his gigantic head. Davey tries to play games with the other kids at recess but his big head always gets in the way. Davey becomes discouraged until one night, unable to sleep, he has a brilliant idea. He can't wait to get to school the next day because he has finally figured out what he can do and his big head will be an advantage. Davey decides to join the soccer team as goalie. He is finally able to be proud of his big head because he is able to keep the other team from scoring.

This is a great book for kids. It teaches that people who are a little different than you have feelings too. It also teaches kids not to dwell on what keeps them from making friends, but to embrace it and figure out a way to make it an asset.

I recommend this to all of you moms, dads, aunts, uncles, etc. I just finished reading it to my nephew a little bit ago and it was a hit. There are lots of bright colors and beautiful pictures. ( )
