Surf’s Up

This book is about two frog brothers that are going to go to the beach to surf but the orange one named Bro wants to read his book. He reads it on the way on the back of the motorcycle. He tells his brother Dude what happens in the book and he gets so carried away, he doesn’t watch where he’s driving. They tumble off the motorcycle. Bro yells stuff that the frog in the book is yelling because he’s lost in thought. His brother doesn’t understand but he’s starts to get interested. When they finally get to the beach, he sets the book in the sand. When Dude asks how it ends, Bro says, “Not telling.” Dude picks up the book and starts reading. Now he’s the one reading instead of surfing.

The frogs are brothers but they have different ideas of fun. One wants to read and one wants to surf in the beginning. But by the end, it’s the other way around. I really like books too just like Bro. There are a lot of imagination bubbles with the pictures from the book they’re reading. They are painted and also very exciting. This book is good for little kids because there aren’t a lot of words. It also says that reading is fun and you should do it all the time. I don’t think I need this book to convince me to read, but I loved it anyway.
