Title: Not appropriate for small children
Product review: I have serious concerns with the book David Smells. I strongly feel that the illustration is frightening for the very young children that it is marketed to. This is because it frightened my 2 year old son.Very young children should not be expected to rationalize the illustration in David Smells, as young children are especially sensitive to grotesque-like visual images. Children do not have the cognitive capacity to put what they're seeing in perspective. In addition, I feel the story is portrayed as disrespectful and rough.The 5 senses is obviously a good subject, but this book is exceedingly poor at representing them. Shouldn't children be able to learn about the 5 senses without resorting to defecation? This is not the type of humor I want to instill in my children. This books content and illustration go too far out of the realm of what is acceptable for a two year old.
