Some neat thoughts about gender... July 1, 2002
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This story works with gender identification. The main character is a girl who enjoys playing baseball. Her mother believes that she must balance this activity with a more feminine activity and so enrolls her in ballet. The plot is activated by some nice reversals. The art is full-page, watercolor and pastel. It is colorful and depicts an unstructured world: both figures and architectural elements are melted and out-of-kilter. I think the style has limited appeal. The illustrations miss the opportunity to depict the main character's fantasies in a manner distinct from the portrayal of reality. As such, readers may not fully understand that certain scenes occur only as a projection. While there is some multicultural representation among the humans inhabiting the story, the main characters are clearly Anglo-American.
