The Story of LIttle Black Sambo

I personally did not like this story at all. I thought that the story would have been the same story had the author not used a stereotype of African American people. I also did not like the way in which the pictures were constructed because they were made to look like the actual stereotype that the Sambo presented. I did not think that this name added anything to the story at all and it was actually a little hard to concentrate on the rest of the story because there was so much concentration on the fact that the little boy was black. I think that if the story would have been written without this stereotype it may have made the story a better read for me personally.
