Thank you NetGalley! What a different, yet unique book. Children will love the story and empathize with Bob the boo-boo. The illustrations are great!
Bob the Boo-Boo is a picture book about a boo-boo looking for a place to be. He finds a boy who fell from his bike and they are both taken care of while the boy heals. It's a slightly odd premise, but the illustrations are adorable and it helps teach that injuries can heal if they are taken care of properly.
Thanks to Kids Can Press and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.
i have no words for this book! this is one of the best story for toddlers that are learning about their wounds & boo boo's and it depicts that you shouldn't be scared of them they just wanted a home.
me and my kids read this 4 times!!!!'
This is a delightful picture that personifies your boo-boos. Bob is a boo-boo searching for a new home. Each place he approaches is not right but when he meets the boy, he settles in. Sadly, boo-boos cannot stay forever, even though they form a strong friendship.
Kids will be delighted by this story, I even read it with a kindergartener that happened into the library. The simple illustrations make it super engaging for young children and the dialogue makes it easy to keep adults engaged.
I would recommend adding this to any library that serves children between 3 and 7, whether it be school, public, or a home collection. I think it is worth adding to my elementary library!
Thank you to Net Galley and Kids Can Press for the DRC. All opinions are my own with the influence of an adorable kindergartner!
An absolutely adorable story. This book is a fun little jaunt about a boo-boo looking for a home and creating a friendship with a little boy. Hidden in the story is also great advice on how to care for a boo-boo, so it heals well.
Thank you Kinds Can Press publishing, Mélina Schoenborn, and Sandra Dumais for this ARC of Bob the Boo-Boo.
This was a very cute story about injuries and a simplified explanation on the healing. My toddler enjoyed the book as I read it to them and the art was well done. I do disagree that the old man is too old for a boo-boo though.
The illustrations are absolutely stunning, Overall, the book was well written and I did really enjoy it. Thank you for this advance reading copy!
