I am giving this children's book such a low rating not for the story itself, but how it came into my life.
My son just started school this year, he just turned six years old, and is in kindergarten.
Every week, they send a kindergartener home with a bag with a theme, last week was gardening, this week was "understanding differences".
Now, after some googling I realize this book is quite an old tale, and should be treated as such.
But I do not, and did not want my kindergartener reading about bull fighting at the age of 6.
This definitely teaches me a lesson to pre-read the materials that they send home, and you can count on the librarian getting a memo when the packet is returned.
