Review: The Alekizou: and His Terrible Library Plot! by Nancy Turgeon and Patricia Cullen Raine (Illustrator)

/

The Alekizou is a mischievous creature. Find out what happens when he gobbles up the vowels from all the books in the library. Then help him fix the terrible mess using just your fingers! An inspirational literacy adventure that Dr. Seuss himself would enjoy.

Review

Through humor and rhyme, The Alekizou and His Terrible Library Plot take a creature named Alekizou and his friend the Wise Owl on an adventure to the library that leaves your child with a fun and wonderful message that not only supports literacy but promotes libraries and the importance of books. 

Wonderful, colorful illustrations with an engaging story, we experience Alekizou going from not liking libraries to loving them. This would be a wonderful addition to add to your child’s collection or local library. One note to mention, I appreciated greatly the introduction of ASL for those not familiar and how it was incorporated in the story. I feel that would be a wonderful conversation and invitation for them to learn more.
