Elbow Grease vs Motozilla by John Cena and Howard McWilliam - ESSENTIAL

Elbow Grease vs Motozilla by John Cena, illustrated by Howard McWilliam.  PICTURE BOOK. Random House, 2019.  $18. 9781524773533

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K - ESSENTIAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Elbow Grease knows that he’ll probably never be faster, stronger, smarter, or more daring than his older brother trucks, but in order to defeat Motozilla, he may just have a way for them to be all that -- together!

I love that Elbow Grease is back in the Demolition Derby and showing that TEAMwork is the most powerful kind of work.  McWilliam’s illustrations draw everyone into the action.  Tip for librarians -- don’t tape down the back flap - kids will want to see what’s under there!
