Children's book: A slide of friends

The little turtle is desolate and sad. She compares herself to the other animals in the zoo and laments how slow she is. Together they will get him to prove how fast he is. The giraffe climbs it to the highest tree. Then, together with the zebra, the bear, the flamingo, the crocodile, the snake and many other animals, they cling together to form a compact slide. They ask the child reader for help to turn the book to one side and the other and thus, among all of them, they give the turtle a little push that slides and runs off happy. And even though night falls, they are all still closer than ever, unable to separate. This is a very attractive album for several reasons: the story is simple and easy for all children to understand, more than one will feel identified with the little turtle, the animal drawings always fascinate the little ones, the invitation to participate by moving the book It is a very fun playful resource... And, in addition, the story leaves a trace of fundamental teaching. Talk about the value of friendship. A bond for which you have to take time, effort and love if you want to build it solidly. And, above all, it makes it clear that it is not important to arrive quickly but rather to arrive in good company.
