Reviews
PreS-Gr 1–A zany traffic-jam story. An antlered bookseller in a yellow roadster totes a stack of books titled Bang and has a fender bender with a trash can, into which all the books fly. Behind the accident, a pig in a red truck bearing 16 google-eyed chickens can't stop quickly enough. Chickens fly, then land atop the head of the bookseller. Next, a giraffe with bags of clothing in its open-trunk roadster piles into the pig's truck, sending the garments soaring into the air, then onto the chickens. The fun compounds with an alligator-piloted tire truck, a purple jalopy toting fish, and more. Each “BANG” scene uses the background color of the crashing vehicle and brings more hilarity and opportunity for conversations about colors, names of animals, and predictions. Single-word repetition and a final brake-squealing “eeeeeee” near the end will encourage audience participation. The spreads stretch out the humor, and a gatefold scene after an ice-cream truck nearly bumps into a paint-can vehicle leads most characters to a happy ending.–Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VAα(c) Copyright 2013.
