Recenzii

The undersea world of Sand Dusty Reef comes alive with a lesson for children everywhere in Phyllis Cafaro's splashy new book, "The Legend of Captain McFinn and Friends. "With page after page of flamboyantly colorful illustrations from MADA Design, the book will appeal to young children who enjoy the similarly fantasized ocean environments created by Disney's Pixar and the like.In this moral tale, Cafaro introduces McFinn as a bully of a shark--"the meanest one of all"--and relates the tale of underwater intimidation that McFinn and his gang, his "bully buddies," use to frighten the "nice little fishies" who share their reef. McFinn picks on even his own friends, sometimes laughing at them "the way bullies do." Parents should note that children will know that McFinn is the "bad guy" here, but the character is not particularly terrifying, either in appearance or in deed.Meanwhile, the "good guys," a separate group of friendly, non-aggressive creatures, work happily together to fix up and decorate their clubhouse. In a subtle lesson for her readers, Cafaro notes that the bullies are actually jealous of the fun these others have together. When McFinn and friends cause chaos at the clubhouse, an affable octopus asks an oftheard question, one to which many children will relate: "Why do bullies always have to ruin everything?"Again, this is a moral tale, so McFinn does learn his lesson. Not only does a mildmannered character stand up to him, but the entire group of nice little fishies works together to save him when he finds himself in trouble. McFinn realizes the error of his ways: "I was a bully, but you helped me anyway! My own friends didn't." Further, he now understands that "He had never known what it was like to have real friends before!"With the turnaround in McFinn from bully to friend, Cafaro shows children how the kindness and understanding of others, even those who are fearful, can make a significant difference in the lives of all concerned. She encourages
