I don't care how many medals he's won, this is a definite dud of Raschka. The text is more suitable for a 3-year-old so this would would not be good for an older child taking the training wheels off, even though this event is covered in half the book. The watercolor paintings that have little detail are not suitable for illustrating a sequential passage of time. For example, Raschka tries to fit nine pictures onto a spread and I cannot tell a single difference between any of them. If it was an attempt to show movement, then he failed in this arena, too.

I love Ring, Yo! and A Ball for Daisy but I did not feel any affection for this recent addition to Raschka's collection.
