Ralph Cosentino is a talented author, illustrator, and designer.A line of toys inspired by his books is available through his company, U.F.O. Toys. He lives in North Ohio.
PreSchool-Grade 2–A mischievous boy with a wild imagination finds that his adventures dont always turn out exactly as he planned. Readers follow Fun-Boys escapades in 12 brief vignettes, each introduced with a short phrase and presented in 4 comic-strip panels–think of this as a graphic novel for the younger set. In Reading is a blast, Fun-Boy consults a how-to book and builds a robot that immediately attacks him; the last picture shows him with hair smoldering, reading How to Care for Baby Bunnies. In another scenario, the childs play fight between two action-figure monsters is interrupted when he spots a spider and gets spooked. The art features simple lines and bold graphic design rendered in muted colors. As in any series of short stories, some adventures are more successful than others. But pre-readers and new readers who are gaining skills in recognizing patterns and sequences will delight in poring over the pictures and noticing the detail that makes the joke in each sequence. Readers will laugh with and at the indefatigably imaginative Fun-Boy and his misadventures.–Marge Loch-Wouters, Menashas Public Library, WI
