Book Review: Dazzle Makes a Wish (Book Buddies 3)

I finally got up the nerve to borrow some picture books from the library!
Little Fox in the Forest isn't anything I'd ever heard of before, but it had cute pictures. Peter Rabbit I read when I was young, of course, but I've been going through a Beatrix Potter phase (well, I guess more like a Charles Santore phase, the illustrator.)
I just love the illustrations in children's books! It's so soothing to me 😊

I Dream of a Journey by Akiko Miyakoshi. Translation by Cathy Hirano. Kids Can Press, 2020. 9781525304781. http://www.powells.com/book/-9781525304781?partnerid=34778&p_bt
A hotelkeeper has never been anywhere but his little town. At night he dreams of traveling to the faraway places his guests have told him of, and of visiting them.
Miyakoshi's drawings are amazing, particularly the contrast between the black and white drawings of the hotelkeeper's reality and the stunning colors in his dreams. Every page of this quiet book is a wow.
Listen written by Gabi Snyder, illustrated by Stephanie Graegin. Paula Wiseman, 2021. 9781534461895. http://www.powells.com/book/-9781534461895?partnerid=34778&p_bt
This book encourages kids to listen past the noise (particularly the overwhelming noise of a city) to hear individual sounds, to think about sound words, and to be kind. A quiet and lovely book, despite the cacophony it describes. My favorite two-page spread is about rain.
Amara and the Bats by Emma Reynolds. Atheneum Books for Young Readers, 2021. 9781534469013. http://www.powells.com/book/-9781534469013?partnerid=34778&p_bt
Amara loves bats! And she collects bat facts. But after her family moves, there aren't any bats in the nearby park. So she starts a Save the Bats campaign to make the park bat friendly again.
Worth nothing: there are bat faces on the front endpapers! Plus several pages of bat facts at the end.

Youthful Thursday
This is such a beautifully illustrated book. It wowed me the second I opened it.
And it’s good that the illustrations are awesome, the art is awesome, because, there are no words in this picture book. It’s the story of a little girl. She brings her stuffed fox to the playground (rookie mistake…), and then a real fox steals it. She and her friend follow after the fox, going deeper and deeper into the forest.
From that description it seems like it should be a little bit like Little Red Riding Hood, but, it’s surprisingly not, it’s actually a really cool and cute picture book.
You may like this book If you Liked: Beyond the Pond by Joseph Kuefler, Journey by Aaron Becker, or Wolf in the Snow by Matthew Cordell
