Pepipacifoofoo by Theda Fresques
Review: This Kickstarter book is a sweet story of a
fairy named Pepipacifoofoo who provides pacifiers for babies and then helps to
wean those same children by exchanging pacifiers for gifts in order to pass the
pacifiers on to new babies. For parents who might be struggling to get their
children to wean from their pacifiers, this might be the answer to their
prayers. My only worry with
the book is that it seems to glorify pacifiers, stating that babies who were
given pacifiers grew up to be happy boys and girls. Does this mean that parents
who opt to not use pacifiers with their children will have unhappy boys and girls
as they grow up? I can see some parents being discouraged with that
(unintended) message, or maybe I just overthink things....? Overall, I can see this story really
helping parents to wean their children from their pacifiers, and children
really enjoying the illustrations and story as a whole.
Rating: 4/5
