About book Hero Of Little Street (2009)

This wordless picture book is a beginning graphic novel if every I saw one. The star of this is a little boy who just can't help getting in to trouble. From kicking a soccer ball that falls in front of him to jumping in to a painting in a museum, his adventures are exciting and funny.The illustrations are very graphic-novel-ly, to boot. Full of things to look at, and crammed with panels, this book would probably be confusing for very young readers. Elementary schoolers, though, will probably really enjoy reading it and talking about what is happening. A great book and story I bought for my grandson. The story is told in cartoon style. When I explained how to "read" the book, my three-year grandson made sure to tell me he already knew how to read this kind of book since his dad read comic books to him. I guess any kind of reading material is acceptable if it makes reading enjoyable! Anyway, the story is well-done and keeps even me interested. Put this one on your "to read" list for children.
