My Opinion
It is really nice to see children penning down stories and poems that reflect the innocence and sincerity. The author duo has done a wonderful job in making the story interesting by not only making the narration expressive but also including the illustrations. Probably every child will love reading this book.
Coming to the technicalities of the book- the cover of the book is colourful and comical. The story goes in a flow and the presence of frequent rhyming words makes it interesting. The title is suitable. The typeset, font (size, colour) and the layout, is catchy. The presence of innocent punches will definitely make children laugh.
However, there are several grammatical and syntactical errors like wrong use of tenses, missing words, punctuation errors. The text is baffling and repetitive. The sentence formation is wrong (even in the blurb- which is more of author biography than the plot summary). The proofreading and editing are not refined and this can act as a negative factor if this is the book is used for enforcing reading habit in the kids.
Overall, a great effort by the author duo (the wonder kids)! Best Wishes!
