"Have You Ever Seen?" is a laugh riot that'll please many young readers!
"Have You Ever Seen?" strives to bring joy and giggles as readers follow Max the Mole as he wanders about the land running into animals, vegetables, bugs, fish, and ice cream. His journey involves many unlikely scenarios, including a flower taking a shower, a goat in a boat that doesn't float, and a fly that is an international spy. This book is sure to bring a smile to children's faces.
Have You Ever Seen? With "Max" the Mole asks children questions that center around silly and impossible scenarios. For example, have you ever seen a bat on a date with a gnat or a bunny with lots of money? What about a moose and a goose enjoying a cup of orange juice? I bet the only time a child has seen a dragon pulled in a wagon is if the dragon was stuffed or made of plastic.
There were so many ridiculously funny questions and images. Jacqueline "MAX" Zarro (writer) and Ron Zarro's (writer and illustrator) imaginations will have children giggling nonstop. Even adults will be smiling at the creative artwork and silliness of the writings.
Nearly all the scenarios were unlikely. However, I found one that could be plausible, thanks to the Muppets. Miss Piggy has blonde hair. She may have stood on a twig at some point. Therefore, I'd like to answer the writers' question, "Have you ever seen a pig standing on a twig wearing a wig?" with a firm....maybe.
Since a child's imagination seems limitless at times, I think they might answer yes to several of the have you ever questions. Children love "tea parties," so questions involving an animal eating or drinking could land in the yes category. I'd be stunned to hear one say they've seen a banana wearing a bandanna unless they like to play with their food.
In the final moments, Have You Ever Seen? With "Max" the Mole prompts readers to share outlandish scenarios they've seen. I bet children will come up with exciting and hilarious combinations.
Amazon has the set recommended reading age of six to eight years, but anyone from pre-k to fifth grade will find this book highly entertaining. It's a laugh riot that'll please many young readers and the adults sharing it with them!
