Two Wheels by David Gibb & illustrated by Brizida Magro - ADVISABLE

Two Wheels by David Gibb & illustrated by Brizida Magro.  PICTURE BOOK.  Candlewick Press, 2024.  $18.  9781536231397

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) – ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

The youngest in a bike-loving family longs for a bike with two wheels. Dad has the perfect plan. First, they will start out with a balance bike, then a bike with training wheels, and finally a bike of their very own!

An adorable story highlighting one of the milestones of childhood, Two Wheels is a celebration of growing up and learning to pedal on your own (both metaphorically and literally). I think this would appeal to younger readers as they are the right age just like our narrator, but I also think it appeals to adults as they look back on their own biking memories.
