Larf by Ashley Spires - ADVISABLE


Spires, Ashley  Larf Kids Can Press, 2012.  PICTURE BOOK  Content: G.  

Larf is a sasquatch that enjoys being alone.  He has contemplated all of the problems that he would have to face if people realized that sasquatches were real.  He likes to live with his pet bunny and watch movies and run through the woods, and convinces himself that he likes being the only of his kind.  However, one day he reads in the newspaper that there is a sasquatch that is making a showing at a nearby city, so Larf decides to travel to check it out.  He dresses in disguise and goes to visit the featured sasquatch.  

This is a cute picture book about trying new things and enjoying the company of people who have similar interests.  It has simple lines with few texts and adorable pictures.
