HarperCollins Bloop

Whoever came up with the saying, "It's a dog's life" got it all wrong! And if pampered puppies could talk they would tell you so. Bloop is a hilarious story that shows what it means to be a top dog who is loved to the moon and back! Kids will want to hear this one on repeat!!

I love Tara Lazar's work because she is always so fun and clever. This book begins with the premise of an old joke...if aliens looked at the earth and saw us picking up dog poop, they would assume the dogs ruled the earth and we were the servants. Some aliens, who happen to look like dogs make this very mistake. And hilarity ensues. Tara's bouncy, kid-friendly text is perfectly matched with Mike Boldt's colorful, almost claymation like illustrations.

This has quickly become one of my 7 yo daughters favorites. We've already read it a dozen times in the short span we've had it. Finding a good kids book can be tricky, it has to be humorous and have the illustrations to match, and this one fits the bill. These are the types of books that keep kids reading! We have our fingers crossed for a sequel 🤞.

Oh, the hilarity! A paw-fectly paced story packed with puns from the clever wits of Tara Lazar. Mike Boldt’s out-of-this-world illustrations charm and add to its out loud readability.

If there's someone who understands what kids love reading about, it's Tara Lazar. BLOOP brings together a brilliant combination of things kids love and a relatable yet unique character for kids to cheer on. Even the teenager in my house couldn't help but tune in for this story time.
