Book Reviews of Mars Needs Moms!
Book Review: A treasure to the bedtime library
Summary: 5 Stars
After hearing an interview with Berkeley Breathed I sought out this book. I was very touched, and my daughter was expecting our first grandchild. I presented this to her and read it aloud at the baby shower. We were all in tears by the end of the book. Almost three years later, it is one of my grandsons favorite bedtime stories. The illustrations are delightful to adults and children. I have purchased one for my library and each of my children to add to their libraries when they have children. Lovely, lovely story.Book Review: Amazing

Book Review: Amazing illustrations
Summary: 5 Stars
My niece loved this book. I am an artist myself and loved the illustrations. Thanks for the great book. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who has kids or just likes fun drawings.Book Review: An Enchanting Tale
Summary: 5 Stars
Having been a fan of Berkeley Breathed's since high school and his BLOOM COUNTY days, I was excited to find this picture book about the relationship between a boy and his mom. As the mother of twin boys, I can understand being on the receiving end of feelings similar to Milo's. The story was funny and ultimately moved me to tears. And of course, Breathed's pictures are phenomenal, characterized by his unique style and attention to detail. When I read the book with my 11-year-old boys, both of whom love to draw and dream of being comic book artists, they were very impressed with the artwork and spent time on each page, searching all of the pictures to be sure they didn't miss any elements.
With Mother's Day just around the corner, this is the perfect book for the mom in your life, especially if she has sons.
Book Review: Another Berke masterpiece
Summary: 5 Stars
I picked this book up on Friday and read it to my kids today.
My six year-old made me read it again as soon as I reached the last page. She made me promise to read it to her again before she went to sleep.
If you're looking for great family-oriented messages in children's literature, I also recommend Berkes' Edward Fudwupper - my kids love that one too.
