Chu's Day: 08/19/18
Chu's Day by Neil Gaiman and Adam Rex is the first in a series of picture books about a young panda with a very big sneeze. Chu's parents take him out, knowing full well the destruction one of his sneezes can have. They think they've escaped disaster when, boom, he sneezes. Of course with all that build up, when Chu does finally sneeze, he doesn't just take out the circus. He takes out the places he visited before: the library and the restaurant. I think this book would be fun for story time. Reading it quietly, there's just not enough here beyond the obvious gag. The fun would come in the acting and in the audience participation.
