A burping boy. A family with quirks. Will their love for chocolate, candy, ice cream and soda burden them forever?
Brother's burping plague is matched only by his Sister's continued sneezes, Momma's hiccups and Daddy's toots. As he makes changes, inspired by his dog Peppy, he learns that his love of chocolate and lack of movement had caused the constant belching.
His family member's other ailments are also associated with crazy food habits and inactivity - each has an electronic device they cannot live without. Will the family be able to make changes to feel better?
This book is for any parent, grandparent or kid who appreciates a good joke. If laughing helps you cope with the many stresses in life and you don't take anything too seriously, you will enjoy reading this story. As a lighthearted read, your young one will wonder if everyday choices could really cause such absurd ailments.
If you want to help kids understand the importance of eating well and moving more, this book is for you and your family. With a common thread of making family time a priority and laughing along the way, your child will select this book again and again.
Beautifully illustrated by Daniel Wlodarski, the images bring the The Boy Who Burped to life!
Kirkus Review
. . . over-the-top characterization of the Everyday family will make young readers giggle. Brother's agency shows that even the youngest family members can help turn a family's problems around. It's simplistic but effectively bolsters the overt message. . . A goofy, gassy tale with an obvious but important moral. -Kirkus Review
Perfect for ages 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8:
