The Animal Family - Randall Jarrell / 9780062059048
This is the story of how, one by one, a man found himself a family. Almost nowhere in fiction is there a stranger, dearer, or funnier family -- and the life that the members of The Animal Family live together, there in the wilderness beside the sea, is as extraordinary and as enchanting as the family itself.
Review: This book was read to me as a child and into adulthood I've made a practice of giving it as a gift to people I love (and their children).. Jarrell's prose is beautiful, the late Maurice Sendak's "decorations" are works of art. I would say that the story reads like a fairy tale except that it has both a contemporary feel and the qualities of old folk tales. A hunter meets a mermaid, a bear, a bobcat and a child. The bonds between them are lasting and beautiful.
Jarrell was a poet. A large portion of his work addressed WWII and is remarkable. It should be read along with narratives of the Vietnam War.
Review: I learned about this book through a podcast I listen too. I was not sure what to expect based on reviews I had read. However, I loved it. This little book made me so happy to read. I was impressed with the creativity and the heartfelt sentiment. It is worth a read to any littles in your life or on your own.
Review: Beautifully written. A great "read aloud" for kindergartners through 3rd grade. There are a few moments that are sad and open up conversations about death but it is not intense or maudlin, just matter-of-fact.
The physical book is amazing. Sendak's drawings are beautiful, the cover is lovely, and the paper is extraordinary. Even the print and the way each page is "framed" with empty space highlighting the words of the story is beautiful. This is a book that should be given as a gift to a special adult or child.
I highly recommend this book.
Review: Amazing book. Poetic. Memorable.
