I read the children’s book called, ‘Seeing
Red.’
This children’s book was written by
Robert Munsch, and beautifully illustrated by Michael Martchenko.
It’s a delightful children’s picture
book that tells the tale of two friends and their hair.
When Arie’s friend Alex who has black
hair wants to know the secret to having red hair like Arie, he’s told to eat
ten tomatoes, drink ketchup and hot Mexican pepper sauce.
After school, Alex follows Arie’s
instructions, but his hair remained the same colour. The only thing different
was his mouth, it was burning like it was on fire. He realized then that his
friend had played a joke on him.
The following day at school he told
Arie that his hair had turned red but he preferred it black.
Arie was intrigued. He wanted to know
how he could change his red hair to black.
Will Alex be a good friend and tell him
the truth or will he tell him the secret of how to turn his red hair, black!
To find out how the story ends, why not
read the book or watch it on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.
It’s a great book for young children
that encourages friendship and telling the truth.
