Review

Moo bird is a story about a baby bird that moos and can't find anyone else that does. This is a fun graphic novel style early reader. It has a nice story line that is funny and cute illustrations to go with it. The one part that might be tough for new readers is the format. Instead of reading from top to bottom, a few of the drawings have you read along the top of the page and then jump across to the top of the page on the other page in order to finish reading the entire text box. With the simple text and drawings, it is hard to tell that this is the direction the author wants the reader to follow.

Overall Book Score: good
