Book Reviews of The Secret Shortcut
Book Review: Beautiful pictures, cute story.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a cute story about Wendell and Floyd (two characters Teague has written about before)and the reasons they are always late to school, reasons their teacher will never accept. And who could blame her really, until we see for our own eyes.
The boys decide to get up extra early one morning before school and end up taking a shortcut Wendell makes up all by himself. With Floyd following, they swing from vines in a hidden jungle, meet monkeys and dodge alligators all just to get to school on time.
As I read this story to my young boys, I enjoyed how they studied the detailed pictures and imagined themselves in the characters positions. That's what I like in a story-being able to picture yourself inside it!
