Book Reviews of the Belly Button Book (Boynton on Board)
Customer Review: Lacking the Boynton magic
Summary: 2 Stars
I am a big fan of several of Boynton's books including
"Barnyard Dance", "A is for Angry", "Oh My Oh My Oh Dinosaurs" and "The Going to Bed Book".
Those all have charm, wit and a resonance with me. The Belly Button book had a lot of potential but just didn't come across. The prose is stitled and awkward in its phrasing and rhyming and doesn't always make much sense. For instance, there are some hippos at the beach and the text says "We don't do much throughout the day. That's how we like it best. We nibble grapes and watch the waves. We take a little rest." Maybe I'm missing something.... What does this have to do with belly buttons and why are they eating grapes?
Oh well. I gave it a 2 instead of a 1 because her drawings are still warm and friendly.
