Meet my 6-year-old son’s favorite book of the year. No Reading Allowed: The Worst Read-Aloud Book Ever by Raj Haldar and Chris Carpenter, ill. If Atheneum isn’t begging Stohler do a graphic novel soon, they’re missing a golden opportunity.Ĭhicken Little: The Real and Totally True Tale by Sam Wedelich It’s funny and the art, quite frankly, is great. If you’ve got a Poetry Month unit coming up, this could be a nice complementary read. Once the pug and the cat are friendly there’s this laugh-out-loud moment (for adults, the kids will have already have lost it with the “can I type with my butt” sequence) involving the pug trying desperately to come up with a compliment for the cat. And at first it’s all butt and underwear jokes and you might write it off, but keep going. a little more free (let us say) with its verse.
The cat wishes to emulate the great masters.
A pug and a cat approach poetry in vastly different ways. Gotta give me a little something beyond breed if you want to earn my love. I have a co-worker for whom all picture book featuring pugs are golden and glorious. This Lauren Stohler character is of great interest to me.
