Harry on the Rocks Tapa dura - 2003

de Susan Meddaugh

An afternoon boating excursion goes terribly awry when Harry drops his oars and the tide takes him and his little yellow boat out to sea. A storm washes him ashore on an island with nothing but sand and rocks and one windblown tree. Hungry, Harry hopes to eat an egg he finds amid the rocks, but after warming in the sun, the egg doesn’t cook—it hatches! So instead of dinner, Harry finds a friend. But just what is the little, quickly growing, colorful, winged, lizardlike creature? Harry’s in for more than one surprise as he discovers the true nature of the bizzard’s identity and the friendship they share.

Reseñas en medios

“The attention-getting opening is just the beginning of a well–paced, cleanly wrought piece of storytelling.” The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

“Meddaugh’s newest is a William–Steg—like tale of a lonely castaway who inadvertently becomes a parent.” Kirkus Reviews

“Meddaugh, who is a master at creating satisfying endings, doesn’t disappoint here…Her economical writing ahs a natural flow and the simple pictures expertly convey the comedy, drama, and emotion of this great little story.” School Library Journal

“Meddaugh’s delivery is as droll as ever, and her tale stays on track right through to the clever twist at the end.” Publishers Weekly

“Meddaugh’s sterling sense of humor, which shone in such books as Martha Speaks, is certainly evident in both the amusing text and art.” Booklist, ALA
