Enseña a los niños a tener paciencia: ******************* Una soleada mañana los sobres llegaron Coloridos y brillantes, a cada creatura se enviaron Algunos los abrieron con cuidado otros los habrían destapado Y todos ellos sabían el contenido que venía guardado. ********************************************************* ********************************************************* Serenity, HALL OF FAME TOP 10 REVIEWER 5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, just wonderful... I can not imagine any child not enjoying this wonderful story... imaginative, delightful and a lesson in manners included. I feel that any book for the younger children (in this case ages 2 to 7 and P to 2) should contain colorful illustrations, rhyme and have a lesson for the little ones that is educational. This one contains all three elements and even at my advanced age, thought it was indeed wonderful. An invite to the lion king's birthday party sets this one into motion. The animals are truly excited and of course, the next item for them to ponder is 'what gift should I bring'? You see this lion king is well-known for his roaring ability when he is not happy. The animals gather at the palace and the fun begins. Nice things to eat and games to play... Finally it is gift time. I love the fact that each animal gives a little speech and incorporates something about their species...For example, the stork says 'May you dive in the pond to catch the best fish'... Unfortunately, the lion king is only interested in the gift each animal brings. The turtle is last and he teaches the lion king good manners and patience... Not an easy task but this cute and adorable turtle manages to succeed. Just love these books as they teach a lesson in addition to the rhyming aspect and the colorful illustrations. Most highly recommended.
