"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title. Students respond to the questions in complete sentences. There are nine questions for this story that include literal questions. There is no mention of where they are goingor whyand the book is disconcertingly unreassuring.Lauralyn Persson, Pawtucket Public Library, R.I.Ĭopyright 1986 Reed Business Information, Inc. Water by Frank Asch Comprehension Questions Created by Sherrie Taylor Vann This product is a ready to print and use set of comprehension questions and answer key. The message (that it's important to finalize a relationship by resolving it with a goodbye) is a good one, but here there is no joy in going on to a new houseor experience. The sentimentalized visualization of memory isn't child-like. The bright illustrations are typical of his work, but they lack the life and humor such books as Sand Cake and Popcorn (both Parent's Magazine Pr, 1979). Asch's newest title doesn't measure up to his others. Papa Bear carries Baby Bear into each room, and they say goodbye together. Gradually, the memory pictures fade, and the rooms are bare again. When his parents join him, they share memories, and things look just as they were when the house was furnished. PreS Baby Bear and his family are moving just as the van is about to leave, Baby Bear says that he has forgotten something and goes back inside.
