Recensioner i media
"Gr 1-4–Harsh words open this book on body language, but it’s all in good fun, or so readers are to believe. “Anyone who can read body language will know immediately, without words, how their friend feels towards them—they will know if that person is hostile and lying, just as they will know if they are being friendly and sincere.” The author then lays out the “secrets of nonverbal communication,” a mission that would be impossible without Wolf’s expressive body parts (hands reach, flail, grab, wave) and facial expressions (the side eye is here, plus its explanation). With a nod to keeping a distance (social, personal, intimate) and how such things can vary depending on the custom of the country, author and illustrator provide a visual lexicon with accessible sentences to help children learn the language of crossed ankles, folded arms, slouching, mirroring, and far more. Adults could take a page from this friendly title; alert children will deploy these moves in allowance negotiations, public speaking, and playground diplomacy. VERDICT Who knew there was so much to “say” about body language for early elementary readers? This is eye-opening and fun, and we can’t think of another title like it." —Kimberly Olson Fakih, School Library Journal "The sentences are descriptive, with basic illustrations to demonstrate, making them easy to follow. This could be an excellent resource for children who do not intuitively interpret nonverbal communication, as well as put a name to what is often natural for people to do." —Connie Reid, YA Books Central"Not only a great idea but illustrated with precision. Adam Wolf, bravo!" —Ashley S., NetGalley-Reviewer"A straight forward and humorous introduction to Body Language. This is a good book for kids, and is nicely written and illustrated. The illustrations are light and humorous." —Abe C., NetGalley-Reviewer
