Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Book?

Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Book? By Lauren Child is a fun children's book to read. It is geared for children ages 4-7. It is about this boy, Herb, that fell asleep reading a book about Fairytales. He ends up falling into the book and runs into Goldilocks and the 3 bears, Cinderella, The King and Queen, the Ugly stepsisters and stepmother. Each page he walks into he sees is messed up in some way and remembers how he drew on it or cut something out. Through the book Herb is trying to figure out how to get out of the fairytales book. It is a humerous book that helps kids understand that books are precious and not to draw or cut things out of them. I thought this book was good and helped show that message. The illustrations were great in showing how a kid may change things in the book. I would recommened reading this to a classroom at anytime.
