Review

Chu is at it again, this time with an ocean-bending sneeze that shakes up the entire beach. If young children are familiar with Chu, they will be waiting for that huge sneeze and they will delight in the pictures of its consequences. If children are not familiar with Chu, they will still laugh along as the sunbathers are upended and the fish temporarily displaced. Rex's pictures are full of color and kids will have fun looking at all of the animals (including merpandas) as they work with Chu to fix the situation. A solid addition to the Chu collection.

Overall Book Score: good
