Title: Terrible story!
Review: The first time I read this to our son, I thought it was cute, and the more I thought about it I came to the opinion that this book is in fact garbage! The premise is that if you are a deep thinker and can tell a good story, you don't have to work as hard as everyone else.Frederick doesn't pull his weight in work, because he's watching the sun so he can tell his "comrades" all about it in the cold of winter, and that's just as good as hard work. The heck with a good work ethic, it's for those other guys not Frederick!This is progressive political indoctrination at it's worst! Why? Because it's aimed squarely at our children!!The fact is if you are a "deep thinker" and you want that to be your "job", then you've got to do the hard work as well as the brain work to succeed. Thinking outside of the box is a critical skill important to progress, but so is working harder than the other guys.Read this to your kid as long as you think they might have a great future "saving the Princess".
