Madonna: Five Books for Children (The English Roses / Mr. Peabody's Apples / Yakov and the Seven Thieves / The Adventures of Abdi, and Lotsa de Casha) Reviews:
Wonderful Books
2009-05-01 - I didn't even know Madonna had written books, until a mother was telling me about the books on the school playground. I ordered the set for my six year old granddaughter. Stories teach life lessons and the illustrations are beautiful. I enjoyed them as much as my granddaughter. Loved Mr Peabody's Apples.

MR. PEABODY'S APPLES SUCH A WINNER I BOUGHT SET!
2009-02-19 - I was so impressed with the children's book MR. PEABODY'S APPLES by Madonna that I decided to read it to my fourth through sixth grade classes too. I bought the entire set and am anxious to read her other books! My six year-old daughter loved it and was able to understand the important theme addressing the dangers of spreading rumors and the dishonor in defaming someone's character. The story follows a small town's beloved Little League coach who is suspected of stealing apples. Ultimately, the coach leaves his players with an important life lesson after asking one of his players to climb to the top of the bleachers with a pillow on a windy day. Mr. Peabody advised the player to cut the pillow and shake the feathers into the wind. "The wind carried the thousands of feathers far and wide." The coach then advised the playr to retrieve all the feathers. Impossible! "It would be just as impossible to undo the damage that you have done by spreading the rumor that I am a thief," Mr Peabody explained. "Each feather represents a person in Happville." Madonna's inspiration came from a 300 year old story by The Baal Shem Tov "Master of the Good Name" who dedicated his life to helping others, stressing the importance of LOVE FOR ALL PEOPLE.Madonna: Five Books for Children (The English Roses / Mr. Peabody's Apples / Yakov and the Seven Thieves / The Adventures of Abdi, and Lotsa de Casha) See link for other children's stories by Madonna.
