What does a young book lover and book reviewer eat while he’s reading? What does his dog eat while keeping the book lover company? What are the book lover’s favorite books to review–and why is he writing his own series of books, along with his mom?
In an interview with Sirius Radio’s Kim Power Stilson last week, our book lover, Michael, age 6, answered these questions. Stilson, who is very adept at interviewing young children, called him “the world’s youngest book reviewer.”
Michael told Stilson he likes Nate the Great, Scooby-Doo and Henry and Mudge books, along with A to Z Mysteries. Michael said his dog’s favorite book is “Bash and Lucy Fetch Confidence,” (which Michael helped write!).
He told Stilson that his favorite part of “Bash and Lucy Fetch Confidence” is when Lucy pees on the coach’s shoe.
Michael then gave away the plot of our upcoming book, “Bash and Lucy Fetch Jealousy,” which is due to be released this fall.
During the interview, we explained why Michael started doing book reviews and how surprised we were by the response to his reviews. Lisa explained that Michael often rates books, giving them anywhere from 12 out of ten possible stars to 1 billion stars out of ten!
