Once Upon A Cool Motorcycle Dude November 10, 2008
This is a great book and Amazon sold it at a great price. We received it sooner than I thought we would and it was in perfect condition. I will definitely shop at Amazon again.
A great book for boys and teachers of boys November 6, 2008
This book focuses on a boy's perception of fairy tales. Boys can be turned off by the topics that teachers choose for study. It really illustrates that teachers need to differentiate reading and writing topics for boys. I suggest using this book in professional development activities to bring this awareness to teachers.
Questions gender stereotypes through exageration November 6, 2008
My son thought this book had very cool illustrations and it was very cute. I thought that it did a great job of portraying gender stereotypes and poking fun at them. In the end, does a dude or a princess really want to weave gold for life? Of course not. The exagerated stereotypes brought out a lively discussion about gender issues with my third grader.
Cool Motorcycle Dude rocks! August 30, 2008
I use "Once Upon a Cool Motorcycle Dude" for Story Time at my library and my granddaughter's school. It is an unqualified success with boys and girls alike! My granddaughter read the "princess' part (with a "prissy" and I read the "Cool Motorcycle Dude" (with my best gruff "Biker" voice). The girls were thrilled when the princess buffed up and wielded a sword, and the boys thought the motorcycle dude was the coolest ever! I was thrilled to find that the prissy princess was not all fluff and feathers! Kevin O'Malley and Carol Heyer have created a masterpiece!Once Upon a Cool Motorcycle Dude
This Princess Needs No Rescuing April 21, 2008
Great book. As a mom of two girls (and a boy) I loved this book. The girl and boy are equally matched, and the girl will not let the boy getting away with the Princess just sitting around waiting for the dude to rescue her. My girls (ages 6 and 3 1/2) LOVE it. We read it several times a week. I wish there were more stories like this.
