About book Everyone Can Learn To Ride A Bicycle (2013)
Every child goes through the learning process of riding a bike and Raschka explains the feelings spot on in this book. What I didn't care for were the illustrations. I felt that the pictures, especially those of people, were so odd and strange that I didn't think young kids would be able to relate to them. The father in the illustrations almost looks like an alien creature in some of the pictures and I found that odd. While I truly love Raschka's style of illustration in A BALL FOR DAISY, for some reason that same style just doesn't work for me in his other books. In EVERYONE CAN LEARN TO RIDE A BICYCLE, I think the father/grandfather with the elongated, floppy head is creepy! The story itself is a sequential piece that focuses on the different steps it takes to learn to ride a bicycle. It reminds us that it is not an easy process and you have to keep at it, but once you figure it out, "you'll never forget how."
