The Sticky Doll Trap by Jessica Souhami



2010/32 pgs

About the Book: An adaptation of the folktale of Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby. Hare tricks the other animals who are looking for water and selfishly gets the water for himself. But the animals have had enough and they're going to get Hare back with their sticky doll trap.

Sarah Teenlibrarian Says: This is a nice retelling, but nothing new. The illustrations didn't stand out to me at all and the story was funny, but just OK. I'd recommend it to readers who enjoy folktales, but I don't know if it would be one that would stick out as a must read.
