31 Days, 31 Lists: 2019 Funny Picture Books
Judging a picture book based on humor alone really comes down to the sense of humor of the reader. On that note, let me state clearly that the books you'll see here were just the ones that highly amused ME this year.
Review of the Day: The Usual Suspects by Maurice Broaddus
You know why you haven’t heard more people talking about this book? Because nobody knows how to sell it. Well, sorry folks, but the secret is out now. It’s one of the best books I’ve ever read for kids, and maybe the best school rated children’s novel I’ve encountered period. This, right here, is the book of our times.
Review of the Day: We’re Not From Here by Geoff Rodkey
There’s the usual historical, factual stuff . . . and then there’s the pure science fiction. Books like We’re Not From Here by Geoff Rodkey. Unapologetically bold, it wears its little science fiction loving heart on its sleeve. Managing to also be funny and strangely poignant, this isn’t a book about “Why can’t we all just get along?” It’s about what happens when our differences are so glaring we have no choice but to acknowledge that they’re there at all.
