For everyone who'd like to return to the comfortable family and
neighborhood made so entirely real in the four previous books about
Alfie and his little sister, a generous collection of incidents and
vignettes. The two children cheerfully make a mess of their
breakfast while Dad tries to read the paper; Alfie shares a photo
album with Grandma and hears how her brother Will once got into
extraordinary mischief; Annie Rose, who is just learning to talk,
takes Alfie's obstreperous friend Bernard as her special friend and
learns his name as her fifth word (after "Mommy," "Daddy," "no,"
and "more"). In a quiet saga that says a lot about how things
change, Mr. MacNally's hat becomes a toy, a gift to the milkman on
a wet day, and finally a bed for a stray puppy. And when Alfie is
page for his mother's friend, Annie Rose appoints herself impromptu
bridesmaid. Like their neatly plotted predecessors, these nine
pieces explore childhood's joys and satisfactions with uncommon
sensitivity and warmth, both in their attractively ingenuous
language and in the consummate draughtsmanship and humor of their
illustrations. Lovely as a first chapter book to share with
preschoolers, or for Alfie's old friends to read to themselves.
(Kirkus Reviews)
A bumper collection of five new stories and four short interludes about Alfie and his baby sister Annie Rose. The author depicts family experience with which all small children can identify.
