As a mom of two young grade school age children, I am always on the lookout for books that are not only engaging but also teach important lessons. Recently, I came across the book A Little Ferry Tale by Chad Otis, and I must say that it is a wonderful book that I highly recommend.
A Little Ferry Tale is a beautifully illustrated children's book that tells the story of a little ferry named Finn who lives in a small town. Finn is very happy ferrying people across the river every day until one day, a big bridge is built, and people start using it instead of taking his ferry. Finn is devastated and thinks that he is no longer needed. However, his friend, the wise old lighthouse, teaches him an important lesson about change and the importance of adaptation.
The book is not only a delightful story but also has valuable lessons for children. It teaches them about the inevitability of change and how to adapt to it positively. It also emphasizes the importance of self-worth and how one should never give up, no matter what the circumstances.
Why Choose A Little Ferry Tale?
As a mother, I appreciate the message of the book and how it helps children deal with change in a positive way. The beautiful illustrations in the book are also worth mentioning. They are bright and colorful, capturing the essence of the story beautifully. The illustrations are so good that even my younger child, who cannot read yet, loves to look at the pictures and follow along with the story.
A Little Ferry Tale by Chad Otis is a must-read for any parent looking for a book that teaches valuable lessons and is also entertaining. It is a book that will captivate your child's attention. It will also provide them with important life lessons that will serve them well as they grow older. I highly recommend this book and believe that it is a valuable addition to any child's library.
