I remember reading this story in the summer leading up to fourth grade. We read this, and it didn't really affect me much. But now, more than half a decade later, I'm reading through this story, and I'm realizing how much this story is teaching.: the meaning of life. Very good read.
Exceptional book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Furello is a magical book for all ages. Young children enjoy the storyline while older children will see the symbolism and the philosophical teaching in the story. That is what makes Furello an exceptional book as well as the fact that there is no violence in the book.Furello goes on a quest seeking the answer to 'what is the most important thing in the world'. What is more important than gold? Furello and his new friend search for the answer and encounter many other characters along the way and each one has their own answer to Furello's question. In the end Kelton and Furello have to discover their own answer and in doing so discover a lot about themeselves.In searching for children's books which are non violent, educational and which teach children what is important in life, I found Furello to meet and exceed all those requirements. Another significant criteria for children's books is that they must make a memorable impression and Furello made a memorable impression on my children as well as myself. The workbook for Furello makes this book a must for all children whether they are in public school, homeschool, or students of ESL.
