Puffin Books Seven Blind Mice

日本や中国では「群盲評象」や「６人の盲人と象」という話で知られる寓話。７匹のカラフルなネズミの話になっていて、かわいい。

I did not check whether this was a large paperback or a small hardcover. It was the large paperback while I prefer the small hardcover.

While teaching First grade, I read this book multiple times through the year (not only because the children LOVED it). It introduces color words, days of the week, ordinal numbers on a very basic level. But more importantly it teaches a lesson of individual perception. We would discuss what each how each of the mice discovered about the "strange Something" and why they each thought it was something different. When squabbles occurred on the playground, I would reference the seven mice and ask each child what he saw/thought/felt. I recently bought 9 copies of this book to give to the Adult members of our Faith Sharing Group, because we often find ourselves at different points in our faith journey and often acknowledge that we each "know God" from our own experiences and perspective. Excellent Book!

Buen recurso para enseñar a los niños que no podemos suponer la realidad de las cosas sólo por las primeras impresiones o por lo que aparenta ser algo. El texto es en ingles, es mucho más barato el libro en ingles que en castellano. Pero es un texto sencillo que podemos leer a los niños en castellano, fácil de entender.

Me encanta este libro de hecho pedí 2 porque mi hijo tiene q hacer un trabajo para la escuela gracias lo recomiendo
