Yep, kids love gross. They will all find it totally hilarious for sure. And so, it will get their attention!
Apart from the grossness, very well done!

Believe me I have seen grosser things than this in kids books. I thing this is excellent and it teached kids that there are gross things in life and not all is perfect. Well done Corrina and thanks for sharing.

Regards,
Robin.

    ha ha so have I, can you believe my son was given a book about a little mole that had a doo doo on his head and the whole book was about finding out who did it. I loathed reading it to him but he loved that book!! Thank you so much for the encouraging review

Oh my, yes they will definitely love this--icky! Great colors. Your bright choices are going to appeal to the children. Good story with this. Love the mice using the flower for protection.

Now I have to tell you that boogers freak me out! Guaranteed to make me retch straight away. So I can't personally take to your snotty bat BUT I also know that kids love this sort of thing and I'm sure he will be a huge hit with them! I have to laugh at the little flower umbrella too - inspired!

    Thanks Chrissie. I was a little worried the grown ups wouldn't get it but I have been pleasantly surprised on here. I find it a tad on the gross side but like you say, its all about the kids
Comment from Photography byTrixie


Cute dragon-ness bat. It is gross. Exactly what I thought with the snow dripping out of his nose. Could you give him a handkie or kleenix so he does not spread his stuff to other children? You are right about the gross stuff..son in Tip program invited to UT Knoxville to hear Dr Bass the famous forensics guy with the body farm...had skull from guy in Waco said there were 50 - 60 pieces to reconstruct I thought ugh he though cool

Very educational information, too, aside from alphabet. Love the visual aid. Painted with great colors and is very defined in details. Very pleasant to the eyes for the Little Ones. I like the gentle colors and setting. Absolutely, painted with great skills, technique and conceptualization.
