Officer Buckle and Gloria is my very favorite. The surprise element for the children is such fun to anticipate. When they see Officer Buckle and Gloria watching themselves on TV, their reaction is sucking in their breath, and then the "uh oh" or "oh no" follows. Also they enjoy the two becoming friends again, and I like the idea that we can forgive and be forgiven fo r our foibles and mistakes, we can make peace, and our friendships can co ntinue. About the bookmaking, I like the end papers with stars (police badges) gi ving safety tips. They suggest art projects for the children, adding safety ti ps of their own to star badges they can make and wear. The primary colors seem just right to capture the humor and familiarity of the story. Joan Atkinson
