VBT# The Elegant Emu - Adventures in Harmony Series - Karen M. Bobos - June 2022
The Bobos Babes are back,
remember we met them last year in a Halloween read when they decided to go
trick or treating and dressed up in crazy costumes. The princesses in this book
are seated down having a very royal breakfast with their parents the King and
Queen when one of them burps and the others laugh etc. This sets the King
hiring the Elegant Emu to teach his princesses manners as Princesses should be
little ladies not burping and farting at the dinner table. This was a cute fun
story which shows readers how princesses and little girls should act like
Ladies. I have to admit these sorts of books aren't my favourite as I get where
they are coming from but think that this type of thinking is now old-fashioned
and though girls should be girls and not act like boys - bodily functions etc
are just parts of life and they shouldn't be made to feel ashamed for them as
for boys - it seems like it's ok but when girls do it, they are really frowned
upon and often scolded for it. Overall, though, this was a cute princessy read
and I can see where the author was coming from. Also, if you love animals, then
The Elegant Emu is a good read and a fun way to teach your child (both boys and
girls) how to have good manners.
This book is the perfect read for children aged between 5-9 years old.
