Genre: Children’s Picture Book
Description:
“The adventurous Jack Russell Terrier, Mr.
Pish, is back - this time to guide readers through portions of the southern and
western United States in Postcards from Mr. Pish Volume 4. Each postcard Mr.
Pish sends is filled with engaging text and full-color photographs designed to
inspire both young and old to read, explore, and learn. As with all his books,
history, geography, and more become inviting and fun - because of the
charismatic traveling terrier!”
Author:
K.S. Brooks has written numerous books in multiple genres including
romantic suspense, satire, and educationally oriented children’s books. She is
administrator of Indies Unlimited (a multi-author blog “celebrating independent
authors”), where you can often catch her pontificating on matters of interest
to both readers and authors. For more, visit Brooks’ website.
Appraisal:
Mr. Pish’s child-like enthusiasm is bound to capture any child’s
imagination in this wonderful, educational series. What great fun it is to
follow this bouncy terrier on his adventures as he teaches readers important
and lesser-known facts about the places he visits. This book starts off in
Georgia then heads west through Alabama, Mississippi, and north into Tennessee.
As he heads into Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas, he visits state parks and
wildlife refuges while traveling on historic Route 66. There are fabulous
pictures of rock formations and national parks through Colorado, Arizona,
Nevada, Utah, and Idaho. Finally, he winds up back home in the state of
Washington.
Each page has several color pictures taken by Mr. Pish’s mom, K.S.
Brooks. I should offer a warning that Mr. Pish’s joyful narration of his
adventures will likely infect any reader with a travel bug.
