Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I love Lucy Cousins! Her books are always great for story time sharing because of the big bold pictures and her simple, beautiful stories. I'm the Best is all about a dog (in perfect rainbow plaid pants of course) who loves to brag. He is always telling his friends that he is better than they are at everything, not realizing that he is making them feel sad. The friends then tell him that they are the best at things too, and he finally understands how mean he has been. The friends forgive him and tell him they think he is the best too, and they share a nice hug. A great little story about the dangers of bragging and being a show off. But wait! You turn to the last page, and I'll be darn if that dog isn't up to his old bragging once again. Just when we thought he'd learned his lesson!
I know that final page is meant to be funny, but I wish the author had stopped with that last hug. The dog going back to his old habits just seems to take away from the message a bit. That was my only complaint about this really cute book. Ms. Cousins' illustrations are engaging and whimsical and I am once again amazed that she tells such a good story with so few words. A must have for any toddler or preschooler!
