Where is Coco Going?

Rating:
Summary: Exactly what it should be.
Review: 'Bitter with Baggage' the first book by this author was a cute concept--step in the right direction, 'Coco' is the arrival of the right direction. An entirely cute story of the chicks I always loved to get in my Easter Basket. A friend of mine and I sat in a book store and read it, it is just far too cute.

Summary: Move over Eloise...there is a new bow in town
Review: Coco is adorable! If you love Bitter with Baggage, buy this book. I have Bitter with Baggage on my coffee table and whenever a friend comes over with kids, the kids immediately want to look at the chicken book. While Bitter with Baggage is rated PG13, "Where is Coco Going?" is the perfect book for kids. This book has the same wonderfully detailed technicolor photographs and funny chickens, but with a kid appropriate story. The question is not where is Coco going, but where is Coco going next? Each turn of the page brings a new adventure. And because there isn't a lot of text in the book, kids are invited to use their imaginations and make up their own stories. I've already given two copies as gifts and everyone loves it. This book is definitely tops on my list of gifts for kids.

Summary: Lots of Fun!
Review: I picked this book up on a whim for my 17 month old daughter. She absolutely loves it and insists that we read and reread it many times in one sitting - unusual for her. Although short on text there is much going on visually and lots to talk about with your little one. Enjoy!

Summary: A Feast For The Eyes
Review: The actual words in this book are few, however, the artwork and the stimulation it offers for children's imaginations is outstanding. Visually, it's one of the best children's books I've ever seen. Coco the chick starts out on her trek by hopping a taxi outside her suburban house. To get to her destination she rides a train, a skateboard, pliots her own plane, bikes through Paris, crosses the Sahara with a camel caravan, goes under the sea, rides a pegasus, goes to outer space and finally arrives in a parachute. Where is she going? To grandma's house, and it looks just like the landscape where she started out. The words are few here, the pictures tell the story, and they are fantastic. The bottom line is that no sea is too deep, no planet too far, no terrain too treacherous or no vehicle too scary to keep a little chick from reaching the warmth and love of her grandma's house. I would recommend this book not only for it's beauty but because it's bound to spark a child's sense of adventure.

Summary: The Chenile Chicken Rancher does it again!
Review: The author and "chenile chicken rancher" of the somewhat R-rated Bitter with Baggage has done it again; this time, it's a funny and meticulously executed children's book. Sloane Tanen once more uses her leading character, Coco the chicken (she's all of 1" tall), and takes her on a playful romp to Grandma's house. Coco makes use of many different forms of transportation, from a car to a unicorn - traversing deserts, forests, seas...even Paris! Hagen's photos are vivid and engaging, the reader can't help but become an active participant in the story. The story line is simple enough for very young children, yet might be used with the older grades in helping them create story lines for books and/or classroom-produced movies. While it's easy to give this a call number, this is a book that defies shelving as it will be very popular with all ages
