Babymouse #6: Camp Babymouse (Paperback)

~ (Author), Matt Holm (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Babymouse is convinced she'll have a great time at summer camp, never mind that she doesn't like the great outdoors. Despite her daydreams of derring-do, she succeeds only in getting into trouble, racking up an impressive number of demerits for her team, the Buttercups. What is she to do? This charming series entry, illustrated as in the familiar black, white, and pink, continues to put Babymouse into situations that most children will immediately recognize. The book's small, square size will fit perfectly into young hands, and the story promises great fun for both new comics readers and avid ones. Kan, Kat

It is nice to have a book that is just fun to read and does not insult intelligence with repetitive text. I highly doubt that any kid will learn to read with Babymouse but they might just learn to love reading. Most teachers poo poo graphic novel format but with 25% of the population as visual picture thinkers and that is increasing it is time to put them on the shelf with pride. Any 1st grader can pick up this book up and enjoy it. Most readers for this age level and reading level are just plain boring. This is a nice change of pace. Just make sure when your big kid steels it to read it they give it back.

Another hit by the Holms siblings. My younger child enjoys a graphic novel of her own while my teenager steals it to read also!!! Way to go Babymouse.
