Zoe loves her doll Molly, but so does her dog, Beans. It's become a bit of a problem. And it all began when Beans lost his favourite toy, Binky Boo. Will Zoe and Beans ever find him? Let's hope so, because Beans won't give up the doll until they do, and poor Molly isn't meant to be a dog's toy. She's getting very stinky! Join the loveably lively Zoe and her devoted dog Beans in a world full of fun, friendship and magical adventures.
A very sweet collection of books and I love the humour that both Zoe and Beans share with the reader. Very easy and simple read which I know I often feel in the mood for.
Picture books, regardless of reader-age, are able to give pleasure to pretty much everybody. As they're often read by adults to children, there's a subtle acknowledgement of this in the text and few small side-winks to the adult inside them. They appeal to everybody because they have to.
And this is just gorgeous. I couldn't get enough of it. The artwork is very very lovely. There's a double page spread involving a sandbox that is laugh out loud brilliant. I can't wait to share this with the younger members of my family.
A funny, sweet picture book about a girl and her dog who both love the same toy. From hilarious situations to a touching reunion, the story keeps kids guessing and cheering for Beans to find his lost toy (and Zoe to get her toy back from Beans). The colorful, cute and expressive illustrations fill the pages and give children lots to look at and laugh at. Zoe and Beans are adorable characters that are sure to please little and big kids alike.
