We love this book! Have I mentioned before that Keith Graves is a favorite author/illustrator of mine? I think I have, but I don't mind saying it again. :)
My kids love the crazy illustrations that chronicle the life of Frank the monster, who's deepest desire is to dance in front of an audience.
Deciding to follow his dream, Frank drives to a local theater where he fearlessly walks on stage and begins to dance. Despite a few minor setbacks, Frank completes his dance and is quite proud of his accomplishment - even though the audience has left the building.
We checked this out at the library, but it's definitely one I want to add to our collection!
There aren't many things in this world that I love more than a good children's book - especially a humorous children's book. I'm a person who needs (and wants) to laugh, so if a book tickles my funny bone it makes its way straight onto my favorites list! You can probably imagine how long that list is ;)
This book is written by an author I recently discovered, thanks to my local public library. I love to wander through the library and randomly pull books off the shelf. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, but that's all part of the fun. The Unexpectedly Bad Hair Day of Barcelona Smith is definitely a winner.
It's about a little boy who's afraid of life and takes every precaution against the things that might harm him, such as smiling. Who knew it could be so dangerous? Life is going along just as planned for Barcelona until...his hair acts up. Want to know the ending? Don't look at me - you'll have to grab your own copy of the book, because I'm not giving mine up!
FYI, Keith Graves has made his way onto my Favorite Authors list. He's that good.
