I love when books acknowledge that the book is a book. In this story, like in his last book, Byrne brings the reader into the fold of the characters. Bella and Ben get knocked out of their book by Bella's dog. And they have to travel through many other books to find their way home.A few of the other books are interactive. There is a picture comparison, a maze, and a how-to folding instructional page. My son and I both enjoyed those elements and followed along or discussed doing the related activity.We both enjoyed this book although I didn't like it quite as much as This Book Just Ate My Dog! which was a bit more amusing. I don't see this as a book that we would read over and over again, but it was certainly entertaining for one read. It was a great library book.[...]
Previously I'd read This Book Just Ate My Dog by the same author, We're in the Wrong Book isn't as interactive as that one for the kids you're reading it to. Well this is a scene where you could make a paper plane out of the book but you're not real likely to. Basically Bella and Ben are having a sack race from one side of an open pages book to the other when their dog knocks them into another book. It's a counting book, they escape and next are in a comic book where a character takes them to a library where the librarian tells them the book they described is in the next room, but this turns out to be a non fiction book with photos of Egypt, they eventually go through a few other different types of books before fleeing a monster, the dog mysteriously may have something to do with.It's a good book to maybe start a discussion on the different types of books you might find in a library, bookstore, their school or somewhere but as an overall story it doesn't flow as well as it could.
SUCH a cute book! I purchased this book to use in my Kindergarten Classroom as part of a writing mini-lesson and it worked perfect! Would be super cute to just have at your home if you have little ones as well. Definitely one I'll have around when I have little ones.
Cute but much less dialog than I anticipated and really too young for my five year old grandson.
