5 Stars for Magical Matthew, June 17, 2014
This review is from: Magical Matthew (Hardcover)
Magical Matthew, by Penelope Anne Cole, is a
darling story especially suited for kids ages 4-9. Most kids (and some
adults like me) wish for magical powers, so Matthew will certainly
resonate with many. Matthew uses his magic for good by fixing things.
He keeps his gift a secret, until he feels he can't, and shows with his
actions how helping others and doing good deeds brings a sense of
accomplishment and gratitude. What a great lesson for all! Magical
Matthew also demonstrates the strong bonds of friendship and the value
it has in the lives of children. Kevin Collier's illustrations are
terrific and really enhance the reader's experience. I highly recommend
Magical Matthew. It will not disappoint kids, parents and teachers
alike.
