Picture Book: Voices in the Park
Browne, A. (1999). Voices in the Park. Singapore: Picture Corgi Books.
Anthony Browne’s book is a great book to share with kids. This is because the book is four stories of the four different perspectives found in two adults and two children’s afternoon in a park. In addition to the multiple viewpoints the illustrations on each page contain many of the themes from the particular perspective hidden in the details of the art. There’s something that almost everyone can identify with in this book and it contains valuable lessons in the varying perspectives to foster understanding. Kids can start enjoying this book around 4-5 years of age. The large print and simple language should make it appropriate for the reading level of some children at that age
