DESCRIPTION:
Another cute Dojo story. Grateful Grandma This is the third book in the Dojo series. The six little ninjas of Dojo Daycare and Dojo Daytrip are back for another adventure—this time, planning a surprise birthday party for their master. They are quick to move and hide, quiet so as not to get caught and generous in their planning and execution of the party.While the Master sleeps, the little ninjas decorate and tiptoe around to get the Dojo set up for a surprise party for the master. There is a lot of screaming, repetition and rhyme that will make this story a hit with youngsters. The illustrations are very simple,. Maybe I just don't get it. Jessica Any book that includes bright illustrations, rhyming, and entire pages dedicated to yelling is sure to entertain elementary school kids. This tale of little ninjas preparing a surprise party for their jumpy dojo master may be a fun read aloud to a upper primary/lower elementary audience.However, having not read any of the other Dojo books, I'm a little confused as to why the Master is so high strung and frightened. Frankly, it came off as a little creepy.I received this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.. "This book is really fun! " According my my six year old daughter "This book is really fun!" According my my six year old daughter. The little ninjas are full of just enough daring and mischief. Great book for new readers who love super heros, spies, and ninjas but are not yet ready to read graphic novels on their own. I especially appreciate the diversity of little ninjas -- unexpected bonus! Great birthday present for boys and girls.
