Children may have to explain it to their elders. Just share "Stanley" with a child and you'll see what I mean. As a professional graphic designer with more than thirty years experience, a father and now grandfather, I give Craig Frazier an "A-Plus" on his first effort as author/illustrator/designer of a book for children. Mr. Frazier is a highly-respected recipient of many prestigious awards in the world of professional graphic design and illustration. I've been aware of his work for many years.

Thank you Stanley and Craig Frazier! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Stanley Fan, This review is from: Stanley Goes for a Drive (Hardcover) This book has sparked the imagination of my 2 children, ages 4 and 7 and has become their favorite bedtime story. They have now become more aware of their surroundings as we drive along country roads in our area and they have come up with some very creative scenarios of their own regarding cows and clouds. I like the book for its bold and graphic illustrations. As we read it together, we keep finding details in the pictures that we hadn't noticed before and come up with new ideas as to how Stanley performs his amazing feat with the pail of milk. |
