I enjoyed reading this one out-loud (to my lucky husband) and would probably reserve it for a non-preschool audience (maybe a little younger than husband-age) so you can really explore the ideas presented in such a deliciously fluffy bundle. And this my friends is the message of the story. It’s an original twist on a important theme. A dog-swap results in things looking right but not feeling right. Always open to the public, we welcome art collectors and the general public alike to visit us seven days a week. This is a significant moment and the reason for Gaston’s “differentness” becomes clear.
This video is part of a series celebrating the release of Wild. His siblings do very well in their walking, eating and yipping lessons, and in spite of trying very hard, Gaston’s daintiness sits towards the rough end of the spectrum. Artist Christian Robinson describes some of the thinking behind the choices he made when illustrating Kelly DiPucchio's Gaston. Initially I wondered if Gaston was in fact a rabbit (humble apologies to Christian Robinson) but nope, he fits in the realm of the canine, just not poodle-style.
