Críticas:
"A fine addition to the body of work by a proven master."--Kirkus Reviews "Readers will revel in this whimsical folktale . . . McDermott's words paint beautiful stories and wonderful pictures."--Library Talk "Color springs from the pages . . . Simply written and well paced, this will make an imaginative read-aloud choice for classroom units on the rain forest."--Booklist "A simple yet lyrical tale that is as satisfying to hear as it is to read." --School Library Journal
Reseña del editor:
With its shocking-pink jacket and swirls of brilliant designs, McDermott's retelling of this rain forest tale is visually arresting but narratively a bit colorless. The reputed trickster Jabuti gets his comeuppance when a jealous Vulture offers to fly the tortoise and his flute to the King of Heaven's festival of song, then wickedly drops his passenger down from the skies. The King of Heaven chastises the vulture, and the birds who put Jabuti's smooth shell back together again gain new feathers as their reward. Though Jabuti's shell is 'cracked and patched', his 'song is sweet'. Oddly, Jabuti doesn't possess a trickster's lively intelligence or cleverness, and the story's plot is resolved by the God of Heaven's intervention rather than by the protagonist's cunning. The story begins with the animals that Jabuti has tricked, but they all disappear immediately in favor of a pourquoi tale about how the tortoise got the cracks on his shell. McDermott's illustrations, on the other hand, vibrate with electric colors and patterns. Jabuti's huge eyes and geometric smile, and the interior, brightly colored birds are startling when silhouetted against the pink sky. This title is suitable for ages 4-8.

Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. McDermott, Gerald Ilustrador. Paperback. Of all the animals in the rain forest, Jabut\u00ed was the favorite.His shell was smooth and shiny, and the songs he played on his flute were sweet.But his music was a reminder, too, of the mischievous pranks Jabut\u00ed sometimes played.His song reminded Tapir of being tricked, Jaguar of being fooled, and time and again it reminded Vulture that he had no song at all.When a concert takes place in heaven, Vulture offers to fly Jabut\u00ed there .all the while plotting a trick of his own.For nearly three decades, Gerald McDermott has been making myths new again for readers of all ages, using language as vibrant and colorful as his bold illustrations.This newest addition to his award-winning trickster series--his first book in nearly half a decade--is an unusual tale of a trickster's fall from grace, and of how creation can sometimes come from chaos. The reputed trickster Jabuti gets his comeuppance when a jealous Vulture offers to fly the tortoise and his flute to the King of Heaven's festival of song, and wickedly drops his passenger down from the skies. The King of Heaven chastises the vulture and the birds who put Jabuti's smooth shell back together again gain new feathers as their reward. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9780152053741
