Book Series Review: Book-O- Series



When I first saw these books come across the library shelves I knew I just had to pick them up and check them out. There are four books in this series by Donald Lemke and Bob Lentz. There's a Book O Beards, Teeth, Masks, and Hats, respectively. A review on the back of the book describes them as "Old-timey interactive technology at its best." 

Each book doesn't really tell a story, but rather has a short description of the person who may go along with the beard, teeth, mask or hat that is featured on the page. Such characters include lumber jacks, ninjas, pirates, and sharks just to name a few.

These books really create a fun playtime out of reading. Kids of different ages will have fun "putting on" the different disguises while learning fun, descriptive words. 

This book series also lends themselves very well to story telling as they have fun little phrases associated with each description that can be fun to read aloud with different voices.
