I don't often review children's books here, but that's not because I don't adore them--I just don't get the chance to often! So, when my dear friend Margo Sorenson reached out with her upcoming release, I jumped at the chance. I am so glad I got to read this! It's positively adorable and wonderfully unique. I love that it's told from the dictionary's perspective, which is a great twist. Plus, there are some fun words to learn, woven in perfectly to the story. Calvin's relationship with his brother is authentic and made me giggle. Little boys with milk squirting out their noses? Totally funny and accompanied by illustrations that made me smile, and I know kids will crack up! Speaking of illustrations, Mike Deas does a great job bringing the household and school to life, with great little details readers will enjoy exploring right alongside the new words. Overall, a wonderful book, heartfelt and fun, and perfect for classroom read or at home with some siblings :)
