Three young boys meet up in the park and pretend to be ninjas, each with their own power: strength, speed, and a … stick?
Bingham’s story has a fun illustrations and a great message. However, the whole thing is written in awkward, inconsistent rhyme. Had this just been written as sentences, it would have been so much better. I tried reading this out loud, but because the meter is unpredictable, it would take a lot of practice to read it well.
