Thanks, NetGalley and Script Novel Publishing, for the ARC copy of this book.
Read and reviewed by seven-year-old Amy.
Bizzy Buzzz the Bee and Grandpa’s Tea is a colorful picture book.
This book is about Grandpa trying to chase away a Bee who keeps going into his tea. This is a hilarious book with many funny instances. In this book, I learned that bees love honey. And how I came to know that, you must read this book to find out.
I liked the grandson and also sparks, the dog—who loves yoga.
This book’s cover is very attractive, and the illustrations inside the book are also excellent too.
I recommend this book to children three years and above.
I give this book 5/5 stars. I would love to read more books by this author.
This book can be added to my list of wonderful picture books. This book highlights the fact that Grandpa is a man of faith. He starts his day with prayer. I loved the fact that the little boy catches him in action. The book ends with Grandpa thanking God for all of His gifts. There is also a special poem of blessing for the child reading the book.
According to the author description in the back, Travis Peagler was raised in a mutli-racial neighborhood. Although he himself did not do the illustrations, I appreciated the fact that the pictures in this book reflected the author's own heritage. I do feel like it is important for kids to be able to read book featuring kids that look like them, at least some of the time. The illustrations are also bright and colorful, so I think they will appeal to kids. The bee and honey connection is also cute.
This book includes only two people along with a dog and a bee. This keeps the story simpler. The little boy's name is never given. This may help the readers/listeners to identify with the character more fully. Of course, this also leaves room for a child to put his name into the story or to make up a name for the boy.
I liked the fact that they boy was able to help his Grandpa by rescuing his tea. The author's connection to having him be a super hero was cute. Having Grandpa express his appreciation to the boy (and his dog) was definitely a positive interaction. Kids needs to be surrounded by encouraging words.
I think this book is perfect for preschoolers. I could see it being requested as a bedtime story repeatedly. The word choice is especially fun.
One note for parents: in the first bedroom illustration, the boy has a slide going down from his bunkbed. If your child(ren) have bunk beds, you may want to be prepared for this slide request.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me preview this picture book. All opinions are my own.
