How Andrew Got His Spots is a children’s book by Louis Lintvelt. Mrs. Lintvelt has always enjoyed reading since she was young, and her two year old daughter is a source of constant inspiration for her stories. The story follows a giraffe named Andrew who is upset that he doesn’t have spots.
The giraffe goes for a walk and asks several animals that he happens upon how they got their spots. Each animal has a different story, but hearing them only makes Andrew sadder. While taking a nap, the sunlight streams down and gives him his spots. Like the previous story I reviewed by Mrs. Lintvelt, my daughter really liked it. She loved the part about the fairy giving the ladybug it’s spots. The artwork by Julie Sneeden is wonderful.
Overall, the story is very cute and is a very enjoyable children’s book. It’s available in several formats on Amazon. You can follow Mrs. Lintvelt at her Author Blog, on Goodreads & Google+, or through her Newsletter Sign-Up.
