Bonaparte Plays Ball by Margery Cuyler and Will Terry - ADVISABLE

Bonaparte Plays Ball by Margery Cuyler, illustrated by Will Terry. PICTURE BOOK. Crown (Random House), 2020. $18. 9781984830470
BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

It’s Monsters vs Aliens at the Weird Series and Bonaparte is worried! Even after he practices like his coach encouraged him to, the Little Monsters team can’t seem to catch a break.  Will they bottom out in the most important game of the season?

For all that the monsters and aliens are super adorable, the story itself is rather as expected for an underdog baseball story.
Will Terry also has an etsy shop where you can buy prints of his cute baby monsters.
