So cute

There are no words to read in this story. Each page has 4 picture cells that make it easy for you to "read" the story to your child. Soon your child will be "reading" it to you. Each page is a Fun Boy mini adventure not unlike your child's own. This book is cleverly put together and illustrated. My 4 1/2 yr old son wanted to "read" it every night.

Super cute and so clever!

If I were asked to sum this book up in one word, that word would be "joyful!" There's so much cynicism in the media these days (kids' books included), it's nice to see something that's unafraid to be sweet, simple, sincere... and fun. Plus, the wordless, comic-style format is an ingenious way to introduce pre-readers to the love of books. Simply wonderful!
