Book Reviews of The Whoosh of Gadoosh
Book Review: Colorful, eye appealing, and PERFECT!
Summary: 5 Stars
...Any child who saw this book on a shelf would grab it at once! It has immediate and wonderful eye appeal with all its bright colors and whimsical objects flying around on the cover...as if by magic. Then there is the button with the words, "Press Here To Start". What could be more appealing to a child - or an adult looking for a child's book? I was enchanted by this delightful new title from Illumination Arts: The Whoosh of Gadoosh. The story follows best friends Jaimy and Jake as they find a home for a wacky, magical and mysterious woman named Gadoosh. She wears shabby shoes (magic of course) flipped inside out, has purple hair, and sells magic buttons from her cart which are to be worn over each child's heart. The laughter of a child causes Gadoosh to whoosh through the air, spreading her gift of laughter to everyone. The colors are eye-popping and the catchy rhyme is reminiscent of Dr. Seuss.
Laughter is often the best medicine, and children of every age will realize that when they put on their magic buttons and "Press Here to Start". I highly recommend this book!...
Summary of The Whoosh of Gadoosh
The air sizzles with excitement when kids catch sight of Gadoosh and her wild purple hair. As her floppy inside-out shoes leave the ground, the whooshing caper begins and magic buttons fly everywhere.Although it s a mystery where Gadoosh comes from, best friends Jaimy and Jake think they know exactly what she needs. Follow along as they lead their classmates and perplexed teacher on a topsy-turvey hullabaloo of an adventure to find a home for Gadoosh.
Wacky as Dr. Seuss and reminiscent of Mary Poppins, this enchanting tale whisks us into a world of love and laughter. The delightfully dazzling illustrations perfectly capture the whimsical yet powerful message of Gadoosh.
