Natari (73 KP) rated The Boy Who Cried Wolf in Books

Jul 19, 2019

As a childrens story book, you have certain expectations, but Tazhibis art transcends mine. The cover is bright and inviting, and the illustration is relatable. Many childrens books are block colours, whereas Tazhibis has an innocent, crayon-like quality to it.

The overall style of the page does put me in mind of British Gas sphere worlds they have in the adverts, as Tazhibis rolling hills are quite literally rolling beside each other. Because screw gravity right? The choice makes it cute, and the crayon style colouring makes it appear like something a child could achieve. Dont take that the wrong way, the detail, shading and proportions are that of a very skilled hand, but, on looking at it, a child would be inspired.

Lindsay (1760 KP) rated I Hate, Hate, Hate This Time of Day in Books

I Hate, Hate, Hate This Time of Day, is a book about an elephant that does not like going to bed. Know any children that are like that. I am sure you do. We all have either gone through it or done it ourselves.

Well, this book focuses on that time of day. This is a good bedtime story. It creates a routine for Edgar with his mom. Though Edgar seems to think that playing and having fun is best. Though can you make it fun to get ready to go to bed.

The author does this quite well. I love the pictures. It easy to read. I love Edgar's response each time his more asks. Children just love to play and have fun. Maybe this book will help with bedtime.
