Reviews
PreSchool-Grade 1-- Full-color photographs try to ``. . . bring the fun of a puzzle to the process of learning left and right.'' A person or object is identified on the verso, and again on the recto in a larger context. Readers are asked, as in the case of the boy Yugo, ``Is he on the left or on the right?'' An afterword lists correct answers. In layout, this book closely resembles McMillan's One, Two, One Pair! (Scholastic, 1991). However, compared to photographs by him or Tana Hoban, these are too busy and not readily perceptible to youngsters. Children will have to look carefully to find the girl in the carnival costume or the correct spotted cow. Second, some readers may wonder, left or right of whom? of what? The book page is the frame of reference, but this is not made clear. The last page, captioned ``Which is your left hand? Which is your right hand?'' comes too late for children to identify laterality on their own bodies first. However, in spite of its flaws, this book could be used for concept reinforcement, drill, or in imaginative ways in the classroom. --Anna Biagioni Hart, Martha Washington Library, Alexandria, VA
