I gave this story five stars because I liked that Aldo didn’t like to eat animals and became a vegetarian. It was nice that Mrs. Sossi made special lunches for Aldo because he didn’t eat meat.
I didn’t like the part where the chameleon ate the cricket. I thought it was funny that the missing cat was in the drawer all along and I liked how Aldo used that as an idea of how to save the crickets. It was funny when the girl put her hand in the bottom drawer where the chameleons were and screamed. But I liked that the principal listened to Aldo’s story and understood how he felt and was kind.
My favorite part was when the teacher said she was ready to be done with the project and that they could release the crickets to the wild in the warmer weather. I thought it was funny that Aldo asked for more marshmallows.
Reading a book a week with my six-year-old son David is a weekly project for 2011. You can read more about it here.
