Monkey with a Tool Belt-Inspiration for the Netflix… door Chris Monroe
Kids enjoy seeings Chico Bon Bon use his engineering skills to solve problems.
This book is about a bug who throws a birthday party for himself, unannounced to his friends, and along the way to the party, the bug gathers up all of his friends as they adventure to the surprise.
Ladybug goes on a bike ride (with helmet on, of course), collecting friends along the way. No one knows where they are going, just that it must be someplace fun! Story told through rhyme, which at times feels a bit cumbersome. Illustrations include little details that perceptive readers will enjoy. It is a cute story that children will enjoy, but not an essential purchase.
The cover is adorable, but unfortunately, Bug on a Bike didn't live up to my expectations. The bug's "friends" are rather random -- everything from a pickle to a nickel, from a frog to a whole herd of cows -- and a strange enough assortment that it hindered my appreciation of the story. And while I appreciate quirky illustrations, the illustrations in Bug on a Bike seem a bit too homemade and not polished enough for a professionally published book.
However, I'm sure kids will love the weird assortment of characters and laugh at the illustrations.
