Book Reviews of Maybelle in the Soup
Book Review: Palmetto bug rules!
Summary: 5 Stars
What spunk! Maybelle takes on a rollicking adventure "because a cockroach may not get exactly what a cockroach wants, but you can't blame her for trying."
Mrs. Speck's delightful choice of words captivates the reader while combining humor and the hair-raising exploits of this likeable cockroach. Young readers will not be able to put this book down until the final page, and in addition, what a perfect read-aloud for librarians, teachers and parents!
Underlying all, the true meaning of friendship permeates throughout the tale.
Upon conclusion the reader is left avidly anticipating more tales of this unique little character.
Summary of Maybelle in the Soup
Maybelle is a lovely, plump cockroach. She lives in her own cozy little home under the refrigerator of Mr. and Mrs. Peabody. Maybelle knows it's best to stay hidden away, but she simply adores food. Just once she would love to taste something yummy before it hits the floor!
When the Peabodys invite a Very Important Guest for dinner, Maybelle can't resist. She takes a teeny taste--and splashes into the biggest adventure of her life!
