Blowing bubbles almost blows up a beautiful friendship.Pup-Pup, a dog, loves bubbles, and so does Pup-Pup's monkey friend Bobo. And even better, Pup-Pup loves to blow bubbles, and Bobo loves to pop them-that is, until Bobo insists on popping all the bubbles before Pup-Pup can enjoy them. When Pup-Pup brings in a "SUPER BUBBLE MIX" for making "super-strong bubbles" that "NO ONE can POP," the challenge is on. Can Bobo pop these new bubbles that Pup-Pup is working so hard to blow? No! And that creates quite a problem when Bobo becomes trapped inside a large bubble and begins to float away. After Pup-Pup rescues Bobo, the two friends recognize how important their friendship is and swear off bubblesâ¦at least for a little while. Kicking off the Bobo and Pup-Pup series (No. 2 publishes simultaneously), this book consists of six short, fast-paced chapters generally with one or, sometimes, two short sentences on each page and plenty of pages of "PHOOO"ing (as Pup-Pup huffs and puffs), popping, and poking, all begging reader participation, for fun. Pup-Pup and Bobo are simply drawn, typically set against an ever changing solid-color background with minimal details other than bubbles. Continuity-minded readers will notice that the final illustration is inconsistent with the storyline, as it shows Pup-Pup easily popping bubbles made from the super-strong mix. (This book was reviewed digitally.)Grab some bubble mix and join Pup-Pup and Bobo for a good read. (Graphic novel. 5-8)
A hilarious book about best friends Bobo and Pup-Pup--a monkey and a dog with very different personalities. Perfect for fans of Elephant & Piggie!
Did you ever have a friend who likes doing something that you find completely annoying? Well, Bobo and Pup-Pup both LOVE bubbles. Bubbles are the absolute best--on that they can agree! While Pup-Pup loves blowing them, Bobo LOVES popping them...way too much for Pup-Pup's taste. It's getting frustrating! Pup-Pup has a clever idea to stop Bobo from popping them. But, then Bobo gets carried away...literally!
This hilarious and relatable book will have kids as young as 2 years old on up to age 7 laughing out loud.
