Julie Andrews is a wonderful actress, singer and amazing author. Last of the really great whangdoodles is a compilation of many life lessons creatively rolled into a story that will fill your senses. I read this book every year to my second graders. We work on visualization strategies for comprehension. There are so many parts of this book that can be used for educating ( ex. Learning about adjectives) but the story is so engaging and fun the kids don't even know they are learning so much. A perfect book that will please kids and adults alike.
A must read for any age! You will fall in love with this fantasy world. Take a trip to whangdoodle land and you won't ever want to leave. The last of the really great whangdoodles is in my top five best books ever written, Julie (Andrews) Edwards outdid herself creating a self-sustained, believable universe all its own. This is one book destined to be a classic and made into a major motion picture. One part of me wishes for a sequel and the other says it is perfect where the story stopped. But the first half always wins. To escape with the Professor, the Prock and the Wiffle bird for just one more adventure into the unexplored regions of whangdoodle land will always beckon. So find your scrappy caps and dive in, you will not be able to put it down.
