The review was thorough and impressive. The concept of personifying a chair in the plot is intriguing. As a fan of children's literature, I'm keen to read this book, especially to discover the fate of the chair after the theatre's renovation.

Shari Borkin's book, The Movie Chair, teaches children about the importance of compassion and hard work via the story of a beloved movie theater chair. This chair has a soft spot for children but not adults. The chair's life changes when the theater is remodeled. It will be intriguing to learn about the chair's future. The illustrations are well executed. Well-written review! Congrats to the author on BOTD.

The author's intention seems to be to teach children the concept that acts of kindness will always be rewarded, much like the chair's eventual reward. Great review.

"The Movie Chair" by Shari Borkin is a children's book that the author also illustrated. In the center of the plot is a movie theater chair with special affection for children. That special chair would provide children with comfort and support as well as hugs when they need it.

Thanks for the great review. The idea of a movie chair and it's affinity to children is just novel. I can only imagine the chair's fate after the movie theater was renovated, given that no one child could carry it home. Otherwise the book seems to have great lessons on friendship, kindness, and fulfilling one's role diligently. I'd like to read this book and find out the chair's fate.
