Jasper John Dooley: Star of the Week by Caroline AddersonMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
This is a cute book, and if I was still in elementary school, I would love it. This is just one of those times when a book written for kids does not really work once an adult reads it. Which is fine, for the target audience, it’s great, but that’s not me.
Jasper is a character that I feel does a good job of representing the way little kids think. The one questionable moment was when he built his brother, alone, with a saw. It seems like parental supervision should have been part of this.
