Book Review Activity

1. Catch the eStory – 脏兮兮的小男孩 (Written by Rattana Kodchanat and Illustrated by Lalana Manussirikiat and Published by Penerbitan Pelangi Sdn. Bhd.). This book is great for kids who don’t like to clean themselves. It is a very creative way to let kids understand the consequences if they do not maintain their personal hygiene. He will learn that it is very important to shower, brush teeth and wash hair. It is beautifully illustrated and kept my boy’s interest high throughout the entire book!
