Summary: Review of Blueberries for Sal
Comment: This is the story of a little girl that goes blueberry picking with her mother. She is helping her pick blueberries but she is more concerned with eating them then she is with keeping them so her mother can make things with them. At the same time a mother bear was picking blueberries with her cub too stock up for the winter. The cub was doing the same thing as Sal and eating the blueberries faster then he was picking them. The cub and Sal did not follow their mothers. They just wondering off eating there merry way around the mountain. Eventually Sal and the cub end up all mixed up and with the wrong mothers and they set out to get with the right ones again.
I love this book. It is a great tale and it is so much fun to read over and over again. The pictures are great and so realistic. I think this really is a good book for children to read and I think it is one that they would really enjoy reading too. This is definitely a book that I want for my class collection and I think the author did a really good job at making this book fun and full of adventure.

Summary: Wonderful children's book
Comment: Whenever I ask my 3-year-old granddaughter to pick some books for me to read to her before she goes to bed, I know that "Blueberries for Sal" will be one of them. This gentle story of Sal and her mother and Little Bear and his mother picking blueberries on the mountain is one of her favorites. There is enough repetition in the story that I can pause and my granddaughter will fill in with "Kerplink, kerplank, kerplunk" or whatever other words fit in the story. Losing one's mother and getting lost are great concerns for children, so the happy ending of this classic is very appealing to little ones. This is a highly recommended children's book.

Summary: An adorable classic adventure story
Comment: It's a classic case of mistaken identity when, while on a hunt for blueberries, two very different mommies and two very different children get separated and all mixed up. Or are they really that different? With McCloskey's incredible eye for natural detail from a child's point of view, this story tells a hilarious tale about a human mother and child (the eponymous Sal) who go blueberry hunting and run into their bear counterparts, who are storing up food for hibernation. Not only are the sound effects hilarious (my son loves to chant the KERPLINK! KERPLANK! KERPLUNK! part along with me) the story also teaches a lot about comparing and contrasting characteristics in the natural world, and the striking and original blue-and-white illustrations make this book unique. Your preschooler is sure to delight in it, and your first grader is still going to love it and be able to draw more sophisticated comparisons and conclusions from the story. Sure to be a bedtime favorite for many years - it has been in my househould!
