Book Details:
Book Title: Muddy Spokes by Katie Kuperman
Category: Children’s Fiction (Ages 4-10), 31 pages
Genre: Children’s Picture Book. Children’s – emotions, life lessons, self-esteem
Publisher: Katie Kuperman
Publication Date: June 11, 2024.
Content Rating: G
Book Description:
This is a fun and comical story about resilience and resourcefulness.
Spokes is a bicycle wheel who wakes up happy and excited for the day ahead. Everything doesn’t quite go as smoothly as expected, however, and after a few tricky twists and turns, Spokes is covered in mud! This isn’t exactly an ideal situation for a wheel who’s trying to roll efficiently through the town to make it to school on time. Now Spokes is muddy, discouraged, running late and moving very sl-o-o-o-o-wly.
How will this cute and lovable wheel get out of this mess?
It’s going to take strength, determination and a wee bit of courage. Written for children aged 4-10, this is a story of resilience and resourcefulness because I truly believe these are two of the greatest teachings we can impart on our younger generation.
After all, life is full of mud. And we all get a little muddy sometimes, don’t we?
The mud isn’t the problem. It’s what we do next that counts.

That is right……1 Lucky Winner Will Win The Complete ‘Cookie Chronicles’ Series (Books 1 – 6)! Book 6 Releases August 6th!
From the husband-and-wife, author-and-illustrator duo that brought you Ben Yokoyama and the Cookie of Doom comes a tale about keeping your friends close—even when they start to look like enemies
BEN YOKOYAMA AND THE COOKIE WAR
Cookie Chronicles #6
By Matthew Swanson and illustrated by Robbi Behr
It’s the start of a new school year at Honeycutt Elementary and that means one thing: student council elections! Best friends, Ben and Janet are determined not to let mean girl Amy Lou Bonnerman win for the fourth year in a row, but when they both decide to run against her, they become rivals!
At first, it’s all funny posters, free candy, and pie-in-the-sky ideas for how to make the school a better place. But before long, the campaign turns sour—with mean rumors, dirty tricks, hurt feelings, and even sabotage! Ben and Janet’s legendary friendship is put to the test. To make things right, they must expose a conspiracy, swallow hard truths, and remember what’s most important—their friendship.
The Cookie Chronicles series has been hailed by Lemony Snicket (New York Times bestselling author of A Series of Unfortunate Events) as “marvelous… If I could, I would eat it.” In each installment, literal-minded Ben Yokoyama gets a new fortune cookie fortune, which he takes far too seriously—prompting humorous misunderstandings, ill-fated adventures, and a deeper understanding of language and life. The series is funny, heartfelt, and loaded with illustrations that will delight confident readers while drawing in reluctant ones, and stars a half-Japanese young boy whose mixed race family is drawn from the illustrator Robbi Behr’s own experience growing up Asian American.
COOKIE WAR is a great way to engage kids with politics in an accessible way. Timely for the US presidential election this fall, the book promotes the idea that politics should be about:
1) sharing your ideas for a better world and letting people decide if they like them
2) saying nice things about yourself instead of bad things about others
3) the idea that people should be able to have differing viewpoints but still respect each other (and get along)
VERDICT This series will be a huge hit for readers of “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” and “Big Nate.” A great addition to all middle grade collections.”

Let’s Hide From Mom
by Parimalasri Doktor
Genre: Children’s Fiction
Synopsis
Let’s Hide From Mom is a true story of Radha having difficulty going to sleep. Every night she finds different places to hide since she does not want to go to bed. Krishna tries to go along with her game but ends up going to sleep in some corner. Mom tries her best to calm Radha down every day by giving her a treat: a small piece of cucumber. Radha learns that when lights are turned out, she must wind down and try to go to sleep. She also learnt that she must learn to fall asleep on her own and that Krishna cannot always play with her, since he goes to sleep early. Radha is still trying to find her comfort zone. She is very active and loves to play. Just like us humans, pets also have sleeping issues or sleeping disorders that we are not aware of, until we tune ourselves to their senses.

MY REVIEW
I never wanted to go to bed when I was a youngster. To be honest, I still don’t. I’m a night owl at heart. That said, I found this children’s story about avoiding bedtime to be such a delight.
The author using tortoises as her main character’s was a great idea. The illustrations of Radha and Krishna‘s scrambling to find the best hiding spots to avoid going to bed were fun and brought back some precious childhood memories of my own.
The author also included a couple of fun games at the end of the book, along with photos of the real, Radha and Krishna.
A lighthearted tale that’s sure to capture a young reader’s attention. And perhaps give them some great hiding spots!
