Faster! Faster!Leslie PatricelliCandlewick Press 2012PreK-K Picture Books, Storytime Pics, Imaginative booksFaster! Faster! by Leslie Patricelli is another creative imaginative picture book that is a great pick for children preschool age or younger. Very bright illustrations bring the limited text to life and bring out the humour in the story. In this story a little girlis imagining her father is all types of animals as she rides piggy back at the park. He becomes a horse,eagle, dolphin and more until he is too tierd to move. The illustrations are done in accrylic and they match the tone of the book perfectly. This would make a good book to give to new parents to enjoy with young chilhdren for the first few years of their lives. As a girl and her father enjoy a day out in the park, she clamors onto his back for a piggyback ride and urges him to go more rapidly. In the time-honored style of many children longing for speed, she cries out, "Faster! Faster!" (unpaginated). He, in turn, puts on enough speed to represent a bunny, a horse, even a sea turtle, until he flops, exhausted on the sand, having tired himself out in an effort to please his child. The acrylic illustrations show the ever-increasing pace of the father and daugher as they race about the park. This is a sweet tribute to family relationships and the simple joy of time spent together.
