Kim's Reviews > Bumble-Ardy

Normally I do not list picture books here because I read quite a lot of them for my job however I felt this one needed attention. I read Bumble-Ardy and was horrified in a way that I haven't been in a very long time. I felt the rhyme was lacking in the story, the illustrations were creepy and the story in general was dark and scary (insert image of Bumble-Ardy's aunt going after the party guests with a meat cleaver). This is not a book for children and to be honest I felt the plot didn't track from the beginning to the end.

However, if you are looking for a new picture book that has a bit of dry witty humor try I Want My Hat Back by Jon Klassen.
