Bye-Bye, Big Bad Bullybug! [Hardcover]

Ed Emberley (Author, Illustrator)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 1, 2007 | Grade Level: P and up

Here comes Big Bad Bullybug! He's big, mean, and scary--and loves to pick on little itty bitty bugs! With the turn of each die-cut page, Bullybug grows bigger, meaner, and scarier. But it's the itty bitty bugs who get the last laugh in this exciting, new, frighteningly-fun adventure.

Caldecott award-winning author-artist Ed Emberley, author of the enormously popular Go Away, Big Green Monster!, offers readers another ingeniously crafted novelty storybook that helps children face, and then chase away, their fears.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful fun!, July 1, 2008

This review is from: Bye-Bye, Big Bad Bullybug! (Hardcover)

We recently picked this up at the library. My son is three, so stories with little text are still good for him, he always wants to turn the page if there is too much text. He likes that the story is a little scary. I do different voices for the big bad bullybug and the baby bugs, and tickle, pinch, or pretend scratch along with the story. We've made it very interactive, and there is a big squooshing sound I make when the tennis shoe squishes the big bad bullybug. This is great fun. We read it at the library with a little girl, who was about seven or eight, I would say, and she also liked it.

I love all the books by this author, having first read "Go Away Monster" years ago. This is probably my favorite of all his books and my grandkids love to have it read to them.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Bye-Bye, Big Bad Bullybug! (Hardcover)

What a fun story! Leaves room for tickles and laughs and is a good time for both of my boys age 1 1/2 and age 3 1/2. You can use funny voices and sound effects and is a good time for everyone in the room...
