Boris

review 1: Boris lives with his parents on a bus. The bus - and his parents - used to travel a lot, but now it just sits in one place all the time. Boris reads and dreams about travel and great adventures. He wishes the bus would take him somewhere exciting. And, one day, his wish comes true!Clever, colorful illustrations help bring this story to life. Great for young readers who are starting to move away from picture books but aren't quite ready for chapter books.
review 2: Boris books are perfect for students reading at a second grade level. When I was an elementary school librarian it was challenging to find books written at this level that make reading fun, Boris does this. If elementary schools and primary classrooms purchase the entire Boris series they will be... more rewarded with excited readers. In this adventure Boris dreams of adventure and travel to far off exotic locations. He has never even been outside of his hometown of Hogg Bay. His parents decide to gas up the dusty old R.V. and have a family voyage… which was not the grand adventure that Boris had hoped it would be. What I loved about sharing this story with my daughter was that it reinforced something I had just spoken with her about this week: You can make any situation fun, or you can choose to be miserable. At first Boris was miserable and pouted and fussed. However, he eventually let go and enjoyed their mini-escapade. less
