Al Yankovic writes children's stories in a way that an adult can relate and how a child thinks. Yankovic really focuses on the idea that children are over creative and think that they see things that they cannot. The young boy talks about many different adventures, and his teacher thinks that he's making it all up. He's even drastic enough to say that the young boy dug a whole to China to the point where he finds a dinosaur.Wes Hargis is really what makes the book so appealing. The pictures in the book really catch the attention. The words are written all over the page, and not even all in the same directions. There is a lot of things going on, but it explains everything the text is say in the images. So while you read the text, the images are action out what the story is. Over-all it's a really cute book, and very relatable and explained. Basic Plot: Billy starts a new school year with a new teacher who doesn't necessarily believe all of Billy's stories.Al Yankovic was born to make the world laugh. He's been making me laugh almost my entire laugh, so I love the fact that he has written a couple of books for children that I can now read to my son and a new generation can discover the genius that is Weird Al.This rhyming tale is a lot of fun as Billy spins his unlikely tales. The art adds to everything, from the stodgy, older teacher to the tales as unlikely as a small boy can make them. There are lots of great details in the art, which is well worth looking through, even though the story moves quickly and makes you want to read ever faster.Thoroughly enjoyable, though, as a teacher I must say I sympathized with the teacher just a tiny bit, as I've heard some true whoppers in my own time. :)
What do You think about My New Teacher And Me! (2013)?
Cute with a great message about dreaming big.
