Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.co.uk
If ever a book was guaranteed to lead to debate among children it is this one. When the choice is whether you would rather eat spider stew, slug dumplings, mashed worms or drink snail squash there is quite a decision to be made. Would you choose to have a monkey to tickle, a bear to read to, a cat to box with, a dog to skate with, a pig to ride on or a goat to dance with? or would you rather be lost in the fog, at sea, in a desert, in a forest or in a crowd? Or perhaps you just want to sleep in your own bed. Designed for the three to six-year-old age group, children as old as 10 will enjoy joining in when this book is being read to younger siblings--it is hard to resist. Even adults will find themselves stating their preference when it comes to being chased by either a crab, a bull, a lion or wolves, for example. It is an excellent book to share with a small group of children as it will surely lead to a lively discussion. (Ages 3 to 10)--Alison Jardine

Given the choice, we think most kids would rather read John Burningham's books than taste slug dumplings, jump in nettles, or possibly even dance with a goat. However, in the delightfully silly Would You Rather..., readers are invited to play with these and many other ideas--absurd, gross, or tantalizing. A small mop-topped child lets his imagination run away with such personal challenges as, "Would you rather have supper in a castle, breakfast in a balloon, or tea on the river?" The oversized format is perfect for reading aloud, as long as the reader allows plenty of time for the audience to peruse the award-winning author-illustrator's humorous pictures (in one spread, the protagonist looks like he'd rather be anywhere but here as he is systematically crushed by a snake, swallowed by a fish, eaten by a crocodile, and sat on by a rhinoceros). For TV-weary children who have seen cartoon characters squashed and revived a thousand times, the nightmarish aspects of this reprinted 1978 charmer will not be overly alarming, but the faint of heart may want to look elsewhere for a soothing bedtime story... perhaps Burningham's own Hushabye? (Ages 4 to 7) --Emilie Coulter

Whole Brain Learning At Its Best
25. August 2003
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
As a researcher and educator in the field of whole brain learning, I have to say I've loved this book for 25 years. Children 4-8 years old are not "undone" by the scenarios involved, rather they are delighted by guided choices that tantalize the right hemisphere where one imagines and generate energy in structures in the brain referred to as the limbic system. Perhaps some adults react with displeasure to the offerings, but children do not unless they are "trained" to react negatively to the ideas because of adult perceptions. Brainwise, children are NOT simply little adults. If you really want this book to have a true whole brain impact, do not display the illustrations until after a child has made a choice!

Would you rather...
3. April 2000
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is a book of choices - choices that are not always so wonderful. Even so, the choosing is fun. Young children can learn about selecting the "lesser of two (or three or four) evils." When used with a group of readers, the idea of consensus can be examined.

A Fun, Funny, Discussion-provoking book
24. Februar 2004
Format:Taschenbuch
A year ago my family discovered this wonderful book and my kids and I all love it. They howl with glee over the disgusting choices, and ponder thoughtfully over the more enjoyable choices. There is always much discussion and explanation of preferences, the pros and cons of being pulled through the mud by a dog versus being covered in jam, or whether having a koala bear you can read to or a pig you can ride on would be more fun.
This is one of the few books of my experience that transcends both sex and age - both my sons and my daughter, ranging from 3 -8 years all enjoy it, making it a rare commodity: something they can all agree on.
But the best part is that now the kids love to make up their own "would you rathers". This has become a favorite car game, and I love the creativity and imagination they put into it.
