Críticas

Praise for the Toys trilogy:

"This charming book makes ideal bedtime reading." --The Wall Street Journal

"A sure hit for reading aloud and a classic in the making." --The San Francisco Chronicle

"Jenkins deftly penetrates the natural anxieties of childhood--the phobias, the insecurities, the self-doubts--without playing them down." --The New York Times Book Review

"Has the nostalgic feel of a children's book from an earlier time--part Winnie the Pooh, part Hitty and part bedtime book. A perfect selection for family read-alouds." --Bookpage

"A blend of Toy Story and the stories of Jonny Gruelle and A.A. Milne. Young readers will enjoy exploring the warm, secret world of toys." --Kirkus Reviews

"There's a heavy fragrance of A.A. Milne to the narrative, not just in concept but in style and in details such as Plastic's fondness for Pooh-like "hums," but the book has a cuddly sturdiness all its own." --The Bulletin

"A timeless story of adventure and friendship to treasure aloud or independently. Wholly satisfying, this may well leave readers expecting to see the Velveteen Rabbit peeking in the bedroom window and smiling approvingly." --Booklist, Starred

"An utterly delightful peek into the secret lives of toys. Here is a book bound to be a favorite with any child who has ever adored an inanimate object." --School Library Journal, Starred

"You'll love Lumphy, and StingRay, and Plastic. You'll laugh over their choice of birthday presents and hold your breath over Plastic's encounter with the Possible Shark. Most of all, you'll never forget these three. I know I won't." --Patricia Reilly Giff, two-time Newbery Honor-winning author

Reseña del editor

“A bit like the great movie Toy Story and a bit like the wonderful Kate DiCamillo book The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. This is a great family book.” —The Washington Post on Toys Go Out, the companion to Toy Dance Party
 
Here is the second book in the highly acclaimed Toys trilogy, which includes the companion books Toys Go Out and Toys Come Home and chronicles the unforgettable adventures of three brave and loving toys. 

Lumphy, Stingray, and Plastic are back! And this time the three extraordinary friends find that their little girl has left for winter vacation and taken a box of dominoes, a stegosaurus puzzle, and two Barbie dolls—but not them. Could she have forgotten them?

As the girl starts to grow up, the three best friends must join together to brave a blizzard, save the toy mice from the vacuum, and make sure that they’ll always have the little girl’s love. (And they still have time to throw an all-out dance party with the washing machine!)

"Poignant and compelling, this sequel sparkles." —Kirkus Reviews, Starred
