Benjamin would rather read about adventures in a giant peach than eat one! Unlike his family members who are happily munching away on scraps behind the backlot of a grocery store, Benjamin is a different kind of worm.
He loves to read. Yet, all he finds are old newspapers and magazines full of tomato splotches. Not one to give up on his dreams, Benjamin sets off on a quest to find “real books.
Join Benjamin on his book hunting adventure! Little ones will be searching for Benjamin’s famous signature in their books at home or from the library

Books for Benjamin | R. G. de Rouen

Meh

so-so

I'm one of those people that takes Children's literature quite seriously. If you are not like me, you will like this book, the illustrations are lovely and it's a good way to introduce children to libraries. Now for the ones that overanalyze: there are parts of the narration that without the drawings don't make sense and with the drawings only a little. The narration lacks smooth continuity, it feels a bit like a kid telling a story ⬇️⬇️⬇️

nanuska_153 "this happened...and then this.. ". I know it's a book for small kids but there are thousands of examples of books for little ones where the narration is fluid. Lastly I could never forgive that worm for marking the books with ink, even when I can see the fun in kids looking for the mark.

Thanks to the author, the publisher and NetGalley for this advance reading copy and sorry, my review is probably longer than the book ? 1y
