Reseñas Varias sobre este libro
Based on the true story of Hachik?, the dog who waited for his owner after his death at Shibuya Station for 9 years. Japanese friends of mine tell me that this story really resonates with cultural expectations of loyalty. I will look for other books this - a really good way to learn more about cultural values.childrens-books cultural-studies favorites58 s Roger DeBlanckAuthor 7 books132
Hachiko is full of sadness and wonder about a dog waiting for his master. Turner does a fine job telling the story, and Nascimbenes illustrations bring the dog to life. Nascimbene makes use of smaller pictures when he focuses on the dog exclusively, and when other aspects of the story are discussed, he uses larger spreads. The colors make use of both warmth and coolness, and everything has a touch of somber loveliness.ypl-ya5 s Jessica Marquez18 1 follower
Great way to introduce the story of the loyal dog Hachiko5 s Kathleen Dixon3,888 66
I saw the story of this dog, Hachiko, when I was following another dog story (Gobi - and I'd link it but the computer I'm on isn't letting me). There have been quite a few books written about Hachiko - this one is fiction and quite sweet.
If I do a study on Japan with the kids (we homeschool them) I shall be sure to borrow this from the library as part of it.children-s dogs japan4 s3 comments Lauren Hegedus211 7
Started crying when the book mentions how the statues paws are shiny because of people rubbing them and didnt stop crying until well after I concluded the book. Hachiko was just the best boy and I love him and his story so very much. owned-books paperback3 s TWISTARELLA1,671 34
