Fun and humor fill a week full of meals with a bit of brotherly...love?...in a somewhat gross and yet silly way.
This is a book, which from its form, already invites to be tugged around and used. In the form of a lunchbox, the cover is pretty sturdy and offers a handle, which begs to be used. There's a snap and flap on it, too, to make sure the book holds together where ever it might be taken. In other words, this one is made for use and small hands.
Taylor's older brother has volunteered to make the school lunches the entire week. Taylor's parents might be thrilled, but Taylor isn't so sure this will go well. And that's where the fun launches.
After a quick dive and introduction into the story...in which the illustrations already make it clear how dangerous this could become...the lunch week begins. Each day, Taylor requests certain items for his lunch. The lunch her receives remains hidden beneath a door, which when lifted, displays what appears to be somewhat matching his request. Again, doors accompany each food item, and when they are lifted, surprises await. The entire page, which I find adds a really nice touch, is accompanied by a tiny note from his older brother.
Not only are door flaps with surprises always a plus in our books (no pun intended), but this one adds a dash of gross, which is sure to make young listeners and gazers giggle and moan. It doesn't go crazy either, but keeps the disgusting scale at a great level. The illustrations are simple and make the ingredients easy to identify, so that the younger ones can flip through the book time and again themselves.
The only downside (which isn't one when it comes to creativity)—kids might be inspired to make their own 'great' lunches.
I received a complimentary copy and enjoyed flipping through these pages quite a bit...as did my kids. So, I'm leaving our honest thoughts.
