K-Gr 2-- Blanche, a shy lamb, joins the theatrical bear family of Zaza's Big Break (1989) and The Evil Spell (1990, both HarperCollins), for dramatic coaching. Eclipsed by the extroverted energy all around her, Blanche is a pathetic failure onstage, unable to raise her voice above a whisper. Finally frustration drives her to assert herself; she insists on a job creating sets, which takes advantage of her artistic talents in an appropriate way. As in Rosemary Wells's Shy Charles (Dial, 1988), readers see that shyness does not deserve to be equated with ineptitude. Consistent with the earlier titles, McCully effectively evokes readers' empathy by focusing on a single, common trait and avoids other distractions. Obvious clues pointing to Blanche's ability with painting are dropped frequently, so that even the youngest readers will feel involved in the resolution. The text's pleasing humor is reflected in the details of the watercolor illustrations. While not a must-buy sort of book, this one will be appreciated by ``Farm Theater'' fans. In addition, it will be a useful acquisition for libraries in which there are never enough titles such as Shy Charles to go around. --Liza Bliss, Leominster Pub . Lib . , MA (c) Copyright 2010.

The third book about the theatrical bear family has the bears struggling to train a shy young lamb who wishes to be in their upcoming play. Finally it is discovered that quiet Blanche's true talent lies in art, not acting, and she paints some stunning sets for the pleasantly surprised bears. A fine addition to the series.

Kirkus评论
The little sheep who joins the theatrical troup of bears introduced in Zaza's Big Break (1989) seems like a hopeless case: shy and retiring, she never speaks above a whisper; she's even a flop at collecting props. But when the bears try, tactfully, to send her home, Blanche asserts herself vociferously: she's an artist and can produce sets far superior to their clumsy efforts. Amusing dialogue and theatrical details plus McCully's appealing pictorial characterizations make this a sequel that's sure to please. (Picture book. 4-8)

/*STARRED REVIEW*/ Ages 5-8. McCully's theatrical bears get a new addition to their troupe when an old friend, Eva the sheep, drops her granddaughter Blanche off to apprentice at the theater. Blanche is eager to be a part of the next production, The Strange Pudding, but she is on the shy side, to say the least. In fact, she barely speaks above a whisper. Zaza tries to coach her, but Blanche quite clearly "stinks." She's not much better at selling tickets or collecting props. Blanche's career in the theater seems doomed until she learns the bears are sending her home. Then she booms, "YOU WANT ME TO SHOW MY FEELINGS? WELL, HERE THEY ARE!" Her other failures aside, Blanche informs the astonished troupe that she can draw, and she wants to paint the sets. On opening night, she receives accolades. The book's messages about overcoming shyness and finding your niche never overpower the story, which is wittily and cleverly told. The book even uses teeny-tiny print while Blanche is speaking--until she turns bold, of course. Then the print does, too. McCully's spirited artwork does her story justice as she combines just the right picture with the text. In a hilarious moment, Sarah, another bear, tries to teach Blanche acting. "`Show us your feelings!' cried Sarah. `Watch how I do it.' Sarah took a bite of the pudding. `Blaaaaahhhhhp! See? Now the audience knows the pudding is strange.'" Sarah's funny, contorted, throwing-up face in the small accompanying drawing lets the picture book viewer know it, too. (Reviewed Sept. 1, 1991)0060242272Ilene Cooper
