I don’t normally review children’s books or even read them anymore except to my 6 year old granddaughter, but a friend of mine writes children’s books so I thought I would read it and give it an honest review.
Tummy Turner is the first book in the series Mid South Monsters. It is a quick cute read. I would say that it is probably geared towards 2 to 4 year olds but a little older kids may enjoy it.
It is a rhyming book and teaches kids that what they thinks is a monster is really just a common machine that they don’t need to fear. This particular “monster” is a cement truck and the child realizes it is nothing to fear.
One thing I liked about the book is the author put an index at the beginning of the book with the terminology used in the book so you can take time to explain these words to your child. Some words young children may not know is gravel & cement truck. With these explained in the beginning, you can take the time to explain these to your child before reading the book.
If you have a preschooler this would be a cute book for you read to them. Leave me a comment and let me know if you read it and give me your thoughts.
