I received an advance reading copy of this book from Penguin Random House Canada in exchange for an honest review. Advert. I’m so excited to share with you these super cute crafts to celebrate the publication of the new Narwhal and Jelly series by Ben Clanton! Cute, funny and very heartwarming. I would say it is a great introduction to graphic novels for kids 6 years old and up. When he meets a jellyfish, they both assume they are imagining one another as neither of them has come across such bizarre-looking animaL before. Nevertheless, they decide to become friends and embark on some awesome adventures together.
With a mixture of fun facts, nonsense stories and an eccentric narwhal song, this quirky chapter book is ideal for junior readers who enjoy something a bit different.The last story features a sad Jelly. Narwhal takes it upon himself to cheer Jelly up but how should he proceed and will he be able to make Jelly happy again? From the second piece cut out the bottom part of Narwhal’s tail – this should look a bit like a heart shape. You can see all of the cut out pieces of Narwhal below to give you an idea what I mean! I was super disappointed the formatting was off on my kindle for this little cutie but I still enjoyed the illustrations and the adorable story. Full disclosure: I received a free copy of this book for review through Library Thing's Earlier Reviewers program.) Start by cutting a piece from the bottom of your paper plate to make the main part of Jelly’s body and then paint this plate blue.
We used to call this type of book a Beginning Chapter Book. They're aimed at new readers, those who have just learned to put sentences together and are ready for a bit more but aren't in the full paragraph stage, yet. Humor goes a long way in aiding both reading comprehension and discovery (remember the first time you got a joke in a book that wasn't about jokes?) and helps facilitate reading enjoyment. That's the real reason books like this are important. But I don't care about any of that. I care about the pictures!
When we got these books I read the first book ( Narwhal: Unicorn of the Sea) to both my kids as a bedtime story and then I discovered my son (8) reading Super Narwhal and Jelly Jolt to my daughter who is 5. I actually liked Volume 2 a smidgen more than the first; while both books center the importance of empathy and friendship, Super Narwhal and Jelly Jolt goes a step further, teaching kids that we all have a superpower that can change the world for the better. Most of us just need to dig (dive?) a little deeper within ourselves to find it. Narwhal and Jelly is a series of books that have just launched in the UK from Egmont Publishing. The books are about two friends that love adventures, parties and waffles (especially waffles) and they’re perfect for kids aged five and over who are progressing from picture books as they’re created as early graphic novels with loads of pictures.
