Book Description:


The series of "TOO" focuses around a sparrow hatchling who is new to life and keen to explore it. He is clever though strong-willed which means he always getting "in" and "out" of trouble - especially when he has a bright idea! Each of the books will broach everyday parental / childcare issues helping children understand the importance of parental guidance and social respect.





About the Author, E. Dantes:


Hi, I’m Dantes, the author of a new series of illustrated children’s books about a little sparrow named “Too”.

Due to my father’s job, my early years were spent running barefoot around the wildernesses of the world and though it gave me a rich appreciation of “Bonne Terre” – literacy came a little later than most. Yet every night literature was still there, with either my mother or father reading a bedtime story.

Concerned with my education, my parents made the hard decision to ship me off to boarding school. During those first long nights away from home, I suffered incredible homesickness and that’s when I discovered the magic of words. Reading the same books I had heard at bedtime somehow made me feel closer to home and in those familiar paragraphs my pangs slipped away. To this day good books are still both my joy and my solace.

The Adventures of Too book series is my “thank you” to children’s literature and it carries only one hope, that a new generation of readers feel the same lasting connection to books as I do.

Review:


E. Dantes pens "The Little Sparrow Named Too" re-telling the classic legend of Icarus but in modern times. A fantastic story with a moral lesson that my nephew and niece really loved. I just fell in love with the illustrations, they made the story so much more complete. Highly recommended for all children and parents alike.

I give "The Little Sparrow Named Too" a 5 star rating.
