Debbie have you seen Tara Lazars NORMAL NORMAN
Debbie have you seen Tara Lazars NORMAL NORMAN
A reader wrote to me about Tara Lazar and S. britts picture book, Normal Norman. Published in March of 2016 by Sterling Childrens Books, heres the synopsis:
What is "normal?" Thats the question an eager young scientist, narrating her very first book, hopes to answer. Unfortunately, her exceedingly"normal" subject�an orangutan named Norman�turns out to be exceptionally strange. He speaks English, sleeps in a bed, loves his stuffed toy, goes bananas over pizza, and even deep-sea dives! Oh, no: whats a "normal" scientist to do? A humorous look at the wackiness that makes us all special� and a gentle reminder that "normal" cant ever be defined!The reader noted a page in the book where a bear is playing with puppets... one of whom is an Indian. Heres that image:
Why is that puppet there? When I get to a bookstore or library, Ill see if I can figure it out.
