Week 22: 

Gaston VS Ninja!

Gaston:

Summary:

This is the story of four puppies: Fi-Fi, Foo-Foo, Ooh-La-La, and Gaston. Gaston works the hardest at his lessons on how to be a proper pooch. He sips—never slobbers! He yips—never yaps! And he walks with grace—never races! Gaston fits right in with his poodle sisters.

But a chance encounter with a bulldog family in the park—Rocky, Ricky, Bruno, and Antoinette—reveals there’s been a mix-up, and so Gaston and Antoinette switch places. The new families look right…but they don’t feel right. Can these puppies follow their noses—and their hearts—to find where they belong?

Review:

This was a good book. The story was nice and the illustrations fit it well. Other than that though, it wasn’t too exciting. The premise is a good teaching opportunity for kids, and that’s ALWAYS a plus. Overall, I’d say read it if you happen to come across it.

Ninja!:

Summary:

A ninja must be strong, courageous, and silent! He creeps through the house on a secret mission. There may be obstacles! But have no fear—a true ninja can overcome all challenges.

Review:

This was a fun book. Both the story and illustrations also fit well, however, Ninja! gave me that “kid” feeling when reading it. I loved that! It felt really short, but it didn’t matter because I really liked how it brought me into its world. Besides, who doesn’t love ninjas!

The Winner:

Congratulations to Ninja! 

We will see you in November!

We’ll see everyone else next week!
