SPOILER ALERT: This book aims to convince youngsters to try hard in school.STORYLINE Fred the Beavercorn is the product of a "blended" family: a beaver mother and a unicorn father. In addition to the obvious physical differences, Fred's parents have wildly different views of life. Mama Beaver is a typical "busy beaver," always working hard to provide for her family. On the other hand, Papa Unicorn is a free spirit who follows his dreams and resolutely pursues what he loves. Fred eventually comes to appreciate the attributes of both parents and decides that he should work hard in school so that he can qualify for a job: (1) that provides for his family; and (2) that he loves.The fable-like tale ends with a stunningly obvious explanation for a natural phenomenon -- the origin of narwhals.MESSAGE OF THE BOOKA good education is important if we wish to provide for our families and find jobs that we love.Also woven into the story is a message regarding "integrity" for the more mature readers to ponder.DESIGNED AS A LAP BOOKThe book was designed to be read to youngsters, starting at age two or three. The primary message -- about the importance of education -- is universally welcome, and the secondary message serves to add interest for older readers. By the time the kids have reached seven years, they will be reading it by themselves, though some of the language and concepts will continue to provide some useful challenges.If parents share only one lap book with their kids, then Fred the Beavercorn should be that book
