Patrick Eats His Peas and Other Stories by Geoffrey Hayes- ADVISABLE

Hayes, Geoffrey Patrick Eats His Peas and Other Stories. Candlewick Press, 2013. $12.95. PICTURE BOOK.  This book is about a teddy bear named Patrick who doesn’t like to eat his peas, take a bath, help out or go to bed.  In comic book form, the reader discovers how many different ways Patrick tries to resolve these various situations.  I liked the way the author captured Teddy in perfect detail in the illustrations.  The story was interesting, funny, and entertaining. This book would make a fun bedtime story for younger kids.  Pre-K.  EL, (K-3).  ADVISABLE. Student Reviewed: JL- age 11.
