Rubin Adam Big Bad Bubble, illustrated by Daniel Salmieri.
PICTURE BOOK. Clarion Books, 2014.$17. CONTENT G.
Long ago, the monster Mogo
was “attacked” by a bubble of chewing gum. Now he is constantly lecturing
the other monsters about the dangers of bubbles. Because (did you know?),
every bubble, heads into La La Land when you pop it. So now all of the
monsters are scared of bubbles. Summers are particularly bad. Now
its up to you, the narrator, to convince the monsters to fight back against the
bubbles - or that they really aren’t scary at all.
This silly book is
actually a good jumping off point for talking about things that we are scared
of that maybe we shouldn’t be. The pictures look like something just above a
child’s drawings - just about right.
