Cecilia Song reviewing Piano Rock A 1950s Childhood by Gavin Bishop.
This book tells of the New Zealand Author / illustrator Gavin Bishop’s childhood life. He grew up in Kingston on Lake Wakatipu, in the South Island.
What would it feel like to have your dog put down … and hearing the mystery of a rock shaped like a piano … and having a Guy Fawkes dummy that looked just like your father, burned on the bonfire.
This is a very nice book, with good illustrations, suitable for 8 – 11 year olds.
I gave it five stars out of eight because even thought I enjoyed the book, I didn't love it.
