The Blue-Footed Booby Blues by Stephanie
Duncan-Peters, Keri Green (illustrator)
Published: November 26, 2024 by Blue Balloon Books
Taken from Amazon: Bad news, bad news—I got me the blues. I’m stuck on an island with turtles and cuckoos.
In this charming tale told in playful rhyme, Bobby the
Blue-Footed Booby embarks on the adventure of a lifetime, looking for
companionship and a new groove. As he travels near and far, he sings and sways
to the blues, ultimately discovering the joys and comfort of coming home.
The Blue-Footed Booby Blues is a harmonious tale
that will have readers tapping their feet to the rhythm. With catchy rhymes and
swingin’ style, author Stephanie Duncan-Peters wrote the perfect bluesy story
for the whole family to enjoy.
My Thoughts: Bobby
makes the rounds from well known town to well known town looking for the place
that feels just right to him. He finds
something in each town that makes him happy but he is always searching for
something else. The lesson of this
book is that you should spread your wings and explore the world but there is no
place like home.
Each page has an illustration of where Bobby currently
is. I like that the towns he visits are
familiar and the pictures show well known places in each of these towns. If someone has traveled to these towns, they
will easily recognize the buildings and locations.
Thank you Blue Balloon Books for a copy of the book in
exchange for my honest review.
