Title: Very Good
Review: My son really enjoys having this book read to him--though before I can even start, I have to assure him that all the children will get "picked" after the story ends. The art work is charming and the story quite sweet. Like other reviewers, we have avoided the term "orphange" at our house, and I almost didn't get this book after reading the comments about it. With so few choices for books about Russian boys, I decided to give it a try, deciding in the end, I'd rather he heard the word from me than others. It hasn't been a problem at all. This is a very good story for young boys adopted from Russia. Never heard the term "Mamachka" before, though--perhaps that's Romanian?
