Strambini, Karla The Extraordinary Mr. Qwerty PICTURE
BOOK. Candlewick Press, 2014. $16.99. Content: G. Norman Querty was unique in his
thinking. He was afraid that people
would think his ideas and inventions were strange so he kept them all to
himself. Every once in a while his ideas
escaped from under his hat. When people realized his ideas and encouraged them,
he was able to build extraordinary inventions.
Because of his example of ingenuity, people all around him began sharing
their great ideas and Mr. Querty never felt alone again. This is a great book
that fosters confidence in young minds to share and explore their thoughts and
ideas. The illustrations were very simple but detailed. The only colors used are black, white and a
little bit of red. The storyline helps
readers to have courage to share their ideas and be unique individuals. This
book could be used in a unit on inventions. EL (K-3). EL. ESSENTIAL. Reviewer: SL.
