Rendition Conducive To Books Ivy and Bean (Ivy & Bean #1)

Cute friendship story about two different little girls learning to appreciate each. I would have liked it better if Bean hadn't been such an obnoxious little brat. I liked Ivy but Bean I wanted to slap. I vastly prefer a child protagonist like Ramona who gets in trouble because of misunderstandings or poor judgment (in ways that are totally natural for a kid her age) rather than being deliberately bad. I had a lot more sympathy for Nancy the older sister and the "mean" neighbor than I did for Bean. My siblings and I weren't angels by any means but we were nicer to each other and other children, politer, and better behaved in public than this spoiled little rotter. Crawling under strangers' dressing rooms at the store? Climbing fences into other people's property? Stealing money? Digging mud holes in the lawn and tricking people into falling into them? Throwing a frigging bucket of live worms over someone in the house? Any one of these would have gotten us more punishment than Bean gets for all of them together -- which I would guess is the appeal for children, the idea of doing all these mean things and basically getting rewarded in the end (since she makes a friend and gets a laughable token punishment of not watching videos for the week). And I don't find any of the exploits funny except maybe Ivy pretending to be a witch, and that's been done better in earlier books. At least they only killed some worms and not the frog they wanted to catch! I wouldn't let my kids read this book, much less play with someone like Bean.

I made the mistake of not previewing this book before reading aloud to my kids! Someone recommended it to us, so I didn't hesitate to start reading this book with the cute cover. It starts out innocently about two very different girls who don't think they would like each other and then become good friends. That's about the only good thing about this book. Bean is trouble - she lies, steals & runs away. This book uses "name calling" words that I would rather not add to my children's

I picked up this book because it landed on so many good children's book lists. And while it wasn't a terrible book, it wasn't very good either. The lone redeemable quality of the book was the friendship that developed between Ivy and Bean, when it initially appeared that the two had very little in common. Ivy was the prim and proper book-reader and Bean, the puddle-splashing rabble-rouser.However, it was what the relationship formed around that was troubling. The two become friends when Ivy

These are by far our favorite young-reader chapter books. The 8th book is our favorite--if you only read one of the series, read that one, it makes me laugh so hard I have to stop reading to catch my breath. We're always looking for another series as good as this one. Kate makes me read a chapter every night before bed, we work our way through all 9 books then start again.

My nearly 8-year old enjoyed this story very much and found it very funny. She loved the cute illustrations and would go and back forth to check details as the story progressed. Ivy and Bean are two very interesting 7-year olds and I can see that we'll be reading many more of their adventures.I liked the fact that it is about friendship and the magic that forms part of every young child's imagination.

My daughter received the Ivy & Bean box set for her sixth birthday and we finished the first book in 3 nights. She loved it and cannot wait to start the next book. The concept of two very different little girls becoming close friends in spite of their differences is certainly attractive. I had to censor a bit of language in the book. There is a good amount of name calling (especially between Bean and older sister Nancy), and Bean is not particularly nice in the beginning of the book. My

Ok. Probably it is a good book for kids, but (in my opinion) only for kids. I mean I wasn't interested in finishing it. You know, there are books for children which an adult has the same (sometimes even bigger) joy from (e.g. The Little Prince, The Princess Bride or Alice's Adventures in Wonderland). This one isn't one of them. Nonetheless, from what I have read it is a well-written book for kids.
