First sentence: The Beanie Boos' world is full of beauty, wonder, and even a little magic. Beanie Boos live all over the world--in the Fantastical Forest, on the Mystic Mountains, in the Iridescent Islands, and even in the Shimmering Sky. Each bighearted Beanie Boo is unique, but they all have one thing in common: They love making new friends. These cute and cuddly creatures can't wait to meet you!
Premise/plot: This book introduces the current--as of Spring 2018--Beanie Boos available to purchase. Each Beanie Boo gets his or her own page. The book includes the names, the poems, other statistics, and a few sentences of story.
For example, Kiki is the grey-striped kitty with the pink bow. This is what we learn about her.
Personal poem: My friends call me kitty, kitty/Because they say I'm pretty pretty.My thoughts: It is what it is. What you see is what you get. If your little one loves Beanie Boos, then chances are they may want this one. It does include one page of stickers. It isn't fantastic literature in the grand scheme of things, but it may just get your little one excited about books.
Likes: The color pink, bows, photography
Dislikes: Poor lighting, bad angles
Favorite food: Spinach
Hobby: Modeling
Motto: Vogue! Strike a pose!
Birthday: August 16
Kiki dreams of becoming a world-famous model. She practices her strut every day on the kittywalk and poses in the mirror. She doesn't just want to be in front of the camera, she wants to be behind it, too. She loves photography and is always snapping great pictures of her friends.
I had very low expectations of this one--in terms of writing. It is better than I thought it might be. I have three of the Beanie Boos featured in the book. The book is not comprehensive. There are plenty of Beanie Boos not mentioned or included.
