Alfie's Lost Sharkie

(4) PS Reptilian preschooler Alfie undertakes detour-filled preparations for bedtime (Lost Sharkie) and a playdate (Hurry Up), all under his mother's gentle guidance. While the minimalist, all-dialogue text perfectly encapsulates distractible Alfie and his patient mom, the absence of speech bubbles may make it difficult for young readers to track. Ink and collage illustrations capture Alfie's infectious energy. Review covers the following titles: Alfie's Lost Sharkie and Hurry Up, Alfie!.
