BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - OPTIONAL
APPEALS TO: SOME
The little human has been invited to the wedding of two giant (actual giants) grooms. He follows through on all the proper wedding etiquette and has a grand time that day, but doesn’t understand why he has been invited. Turns out the grooms want him to return home and spread a message about love.
Burdett’s illustrations are so fun and vivid. The wedding looks like it was a grand party to attend. The ending falls flat - I feel that the giants should have had a personal connection with the small guest rather than inviting him just to make a point. Having two giant grooms already makes the point that Plummer so baldly states.
