![]() ![]() ![]() A tug-o-war ensues, and poor Fuzzy Llama gets his arm ripped off! It's a "llama-mergency"! That's all fine, really, until he sees Nelly playing with Fuzzy Llama (his little doll that he takes everywhere). When Nelly Gnu comes over for a playdate, Llama is forced to share his toys. This adorable story in rhyme is about sharing. ![]() Now this is the Llama Llama I know and love. This one is great for PreK and Kinder classrooms addressing the issue of sharing. The mamas are wise, though, and soon little llama learns that sharing isn't so bad. (Get it? She's the GNU girl!? Good one.) He really doesn't mind sharing some of his toys, but his favorite stuffed llama? No way, buddy, and let the trouble begin. Llama Llama is wary of the new girl, Nelly Gnu. It's sweet, it's honest, and even though the littles are llamas they are exactly like human littles. This book is exactly what you'd expect from Dewdney's Llama Llama line. Maybe I'll just print up my own certificate and mail it to her with a crown and a sash. I would declare her Meter Princess if I could. She's always faithful to it and I love her for that. ![]() I don't have to stop at various points and think, "Wait.how do I have to say this so the meter is right?" That's because Anna Dewdney gets meter. She doesn't try to leave a syllable out or cram an extra one into a line to make it fit. Okay, here's the thing I really love about Anna Dewdney. ![]()
