Sir Reginald's Logbook by Matt Hammill - OPTIONAL

Sir Reginald's Logbook by Makk Hamill. Kids Can Press, 2008. PICTURE BOOK

EL - OPTIONAL

Sir Reginald's diary illustrates his search through the dangerous jungle for the legendary Lost Tablet of Illusion. What turns out to be an imaginary quest is shown in colorful scenes while the reality is depicted on the following page in black and white. He is really only searching his home and yard for a missing TV remote control.

Children will enjoy the imaginary adventure and the humorous illustrations but the old-fashioned language may only be appreciated by adults.
