Jagged mountains rise from the column of the book's spine and the figures of various characters that the Prince encounters in his celestial travels march across the tale like a regiment of paper soldiers. When the prince, released from his vow by the flower, begins to travel to other planets, the pages grow thick with inventive paper landscapes. Masses of entwined balboa trees burst from the pages like a riot of pernicious weeds. As the classic tale unfolds and we learn more about the Little Prince's miniature home planet, the pop-up art evolves into cratered orbs that spin at the pull of a tab or twist their flower clustered faces to the warmth of a rising sun stretching above the page. Beginning pages are full of hidden doors, windows and flaps that contain treasures of minuscule fold out animals and tiny doodles. The book begins with the Little Prince himself, being held aloft from the title page by a harnessed flock of birds, the white and pale gray of each wing a stark contrast to the enveloping black mass of the space that surrounds him. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry proclaims himself no "great artist" and this pop-up book stays true to the delicate pastels of the watercolors he used to create The Little Prince's illustrations.

Sidekicks fulfill several functions heroes can't, and they make us love them while they do it. He is named this because he is learning to think how humans do-which can be fuzzy at times, not totally logical or linear.įuzzy, in Elisabeth Sims' words, is Max's sidekick. Fortunately for Max, she is also Fuzzy's mentor-friend.Īlthough misunderstandings with Max's parents and conflicts with the school's administration is an interesting plot, the real focus of the book is Fuzzy, the robot. Max gets into trouble with her parents and the threat of being sent to a disciplinary school looms over her. When Max demonstrates initiative or out-of-the-box thinking, BARBARA punishes her by lowering her test scores. She is so determined to have an excellent school that her rules end up being burdensome and ridiculous. SYNOPSIS The protagonist, Maxine Zelaster (aka Max) is a smart, seventh grader struggling against a school increasingly dominated by vice- principal BARBARA-the computer who runs Vanguard One's Middle School. Two men carefully loading it with what appears to be food.ĥ:09-The van, loaded, attempts to drive around the corner of the alley, to proceed from Ryders Alley into Edens Alley, but is thwarted by the angle of the alley's turn. Up at the end of the alley, a van from a catering place. A small telephone company construction site, a hole burrowed by phone company workers, in the center of the alley, surrounded by cobblestones stacked up like dentures, surrounded, in turn, by piles of dirt. I didn't know what that truth was exactly, so I took a more scrupulous view, despite the cold, because in my mind, or in my sleep deprivation, I felt close to it.ĥ:04-Dusk. No, I undertook them with greater zest as I was desirous of arriving at some truth about the rats, or at least about my alley-some great notion that I felt still eluded me about my rats and my particular situation. ON WINTER MORNINGS, I awoke groggy from my rat duties, kissed my family good day, then filled my thermos and subwayed through my day in the shoulder-crunching, welcoming, belligerent, and ambivalent crowds of Manhattan and Brooklyn and, once in a while, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx.
