Commentary In Favor Of Books Scarlett Angelina Wolverton-Manning

I read this to the PandaBat's first grade class. It was a hit. They loved the set-up, and the pay-off was successful. I even think they appreciated the tasteful illustrations.

One of the best picture books ever. I wish Ogburn would write a million of them.

I bought a copy for my birthday, because I needed a copy. There is at least one, maybe more around the house, but those are not mine anymore. This book just makes me so happy. Every artist could create a version and I'd never get tired.

Jacqueline K. Ogburn, whose gorgeous fairy-tale adaptations include such titles as The Lady and the Lion and The Magic Nesting Doll , here delivers a wholly original story, one with decidedly gothic overtones and a surprise (or not) ending that is sure to appeal to readers with a slightly bent sense of humor. Scarlett Angelina Wolverton-Manning, the beloved daughter of fabulously wealthy parents, grows up surrounded by luxury: waited on hand and foot by the servants, and tutored at home. Then

Scarlett is abducted from her school by a man who says he is her driver. She tells him repeatedly that she must be home before dark and her parents repeat this caution, but she DOESN'T make home in time. There is a good reason!

I had read this before and was thinking it might work for a class visit next week or our Halloween party.

Unlike a story like The Princess and Mr. Whiffle: The Thing beneath the Bed, this book lets the reader know early on that Ms. Scarlett is a potentially dangerous character. (And the title and coverwhat giveaways).Was there ever, since The Ransom of Red Chief such a disastrous kidnapping? Probably not. The story is funny and, as matters progress, our smiles grow wider and wider. As Ralph wonders what is happening to his pets, you can feel a snicker growing. When the truth is revealed to him, the

Scarlett Angelina may seem like any other child. She looks like her mom's family and she looks like her dad's. However, what most people don't realize is that the biggest thing she has in common with her descendants is a secret. The beginning of the story introduces the audience to the Wolverton-Manning family. They live in a mansion with maids, butlers, a French teacher, and more. However, when young Scarlett expects to be taken to French lessons, her chauffeur kidnaps her as ransom for money.
