ReviewedBigfoot is a fan of roller coasters. Can he sneak into the amusement park without being found out? With a masterful disguise, he gets access to the behind-the-scenes fun. He grabs a funnel cake, plays some games, and, of course, rides some rides! A fiction story, narrated by the friendliest Bigfoot around, sprinkled with nonfiction nuggets grabs the attention of fiction and nonfiction readers alike. For additional fun, play the scavenger hunt for hidden items in each title. Back matter includes discussion questions and writing prompts.
In this hybrid fiction and fact early chapter book series, an illustrated version of Bigfoot explores various places, while sharing facts and lots of photographs of the things he learns along the way. In the vein of the “Fly Guy Presents” series, Bigfoot walks readers through amusement parks, a chocolate factory, the International Space Station, a Zoo, the White House, and Yellowstone National Park. Each book finds Bigfoot sneaking into the location and hiding from staff and other visitors as he explores and shares his findings. A scavenger hunt offers things for readers to look for at the start of each book, while back matter includes a glossary, discussion questions and writing prompts. VERDICT Though the conceit of each volume can feel a little forced, young readers will enjoy the facts and the idea of Bigfoot as their guide. Recommended for most collections, especially where nonfiction early readers do well.
