    Slightly dissapointed
  

*by B***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 February 2015*

Very basic could have been about any disability

    ダンス教室に通う主人公の友達がダウン症の女の子
  
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in Japan on 12 November 2010*

主人公は友達がダウン症であることを理解したうえで友達づきあいをしています。ダウン症の特徴や留意点を解説した（ちょっとした）説明も記述されています。兄弟や友達（４〜８歳くらい）へダウン症児を説明する時に有効かもしれません。価格が安いので１冊持っておいて損は無いと思います。

    Could use some improvements
  

*by V***M on Reviewed in the United States on 18 September 2012*

We have a daughter with Down syndrome who has always attended regular private daycare and preschool.  This fall she started at a new school, and I looked for books that her teacher could read to her class of 4-5 year olds to help them get to know her. After reading this book, I'd say it's geared more towards 6-8 year olds.  I liked some of the text.  For example, on page 6 it says, "Sarah looks a little different from other kids.  But we all look different from each other, right?  Life would be boring if we were all the same."  Unfortunately, on the opposing page is a "Did You Know?" insert box that says, "Kids with Down syndrome tend to be short.  Their eyes look smaller and slant upward. However, not everyone with Down syndrome looks exactly alike."  Some of the other "Did You Know?" insert boxes throughout the book contain similar information: "Kids with Down syndrome have learning disabilities.  They learn more slowly than other kids their age."  And, "Kids with Down syndrome often have other health problems.  About half of all people with Down syndrome have heart problems.  They may also have hearing or vision problems."In my opinion, these "Did You Know? boxes turn a child with Down syndrome into a scientific curiosity, rather than presenting him/her as just another child with some differences. They also interrupt the storyline. General information about Down syndrome, which could be more positively presented, should be at the back of the book. At the same time, the book doesn't touch on speech challenges, which are an issue in everyday interaction between typical children and children with Down syndrome. (The book does say that Sarah's laugh "sounds like a honking goose", which I thought was odd--is the reader supposed to think a strange laugh is typical of DS? But maybe I'm reading too much into it.)Part of the storyline talks about other children making fun of Sarah. I understand why the topic was covered. However we have so far not had this issue and I feel the book could introduce a problem instead of preventing/alleviating one.The illustrations of the book are nice.  I think I'll save the book and make cut-outs with my own text to cover/re-word the "Did You Know?" inserts.
