Children’s Book Research

I Love to Eat Fruits and Vegetables

The front cover is very colourful and has a rabbit holding fruit and veg, this is a theme throughout the book and as you can see from one of the page below, although it’s got a nice front cover it looks very bland. It is 38 pages long which means it could be read as a night time book, reading a few pages at a time, or just all at once. Its an educational book trying to get to eat less sweet foods and more fruits and veg. This is important because kids will look to this story and think that it’s ok because an rabbit in a story eats fruit and veg.

Product Dimensions: 21.6 x 0.6 x 21.6 cm

I havent seen any other pages from inside the book, but from what I have seen it doesn’t look all the appealing to the eye. It has had fantastic reviews which means it must be doing something right, but for me it looks a bit too bland. It is aimed at younger children and could be used in school’s to help kids want to eat fruit and veg.

This book is aimed for kids between the ages of 5-8 years old, and even though it is aimed at kids that age, it also looks great so adults won’t mind reading it. The book itself looks extremely fantastic and simplistic, and it has a really deep meaning, a child wishing people good health throughout the book.

Pages – 40

Product Dimensions: 8.5 x 0.5 x 8.5 inches

A #1 New York Times bestseller, this innovative and wildly funny read-aloud by award-winning humourist/actor B.J. Novak will turn any reader into a comedian.You might think a book with no pictures seems boring and serious. Except . . . here’s how books work. Everything written on the page has to be said by the person reading it aloud. Even if the words say . . . BLORK. Or BLUURF. Even if the words are a preposterous song about eating ants for breakfast, or just a list of astonishingly goofy sounds like BLAGGITY BLAGGITY and GLIBBITY GLOBBITY.

Age Range: 5 - 8 yearsProduct Dimensions: 8.4 x 0.4 x 10.2 inches

The book is beautifully simplistic, and does exactly what it says on the front, it has no pictures, just words. But what kids won’t realise is they are learning words for meanings without them even knowing. As you can see from the example on the left you will, it is teaching them words that they wouldn’t normally hear in normal life from there teachers because they are not simplistic. At the same time it will entertain kids because the book has there parents read out silly words that they will enjoy, this makes up for the lack of pictures in the book.
