Little siblings are no fun. Of course you want to send them to the moon. But what happens when they are really gone? This book looks at this question in a fun way all older siblings can relate to and understand.
funny
This book is good for a chuckle. It’s time for the caterpillar to transform into a butterfly, but time is standing still. How ever will he make it 2 weeks? In a way this makes me think of the COVID lock down. Can we go back to normal yet?
slow-paced
Ehhh. Honestly, I thought it was boring. A little girl only likes things that are blue. But mama gets her settled down, and shows how everything is blue.
slow-paced
This is a lovely story, but way way way way too long. I think it would have been better as a short chapter book.
adventurous

fast-paced
I love how the author/illustrator can tell an entire story with one word. This would be so fun to do at story time!!
I love the illustrations. The book tries to rhyme, but there is no cadence. The illustrations are what keep this book from being a complete mess.
This has been done better by others. A Lot better.
Josh Funk is slowly becoming a new favorite author. I have loved all of his books and this is no exception. The rhymes work, the cadence works, and the story is great. This story is about Albie Newton who is always questioning and tinkering. When he starts at a new school he wants to make friends with his classmates so he makes them something special. He just needs to remember to pay attention to his classmates from time to time.
This book really wants to be Touch Here, or Don’t Push the button. And while it is lovely, the illustrations are dark, and the effort is good, it’s just not good enough.
I like this book, to be honest, It’s hard for me to understand. There is very little written in the US about Kwanzaa and It is something I would like to explore more. This was a nice starting place, but That may be because of my lack of knowledge, I don't know better.
