Review:
"This clever guessing-game story will sharpen observation skills in a fun way. Roxanne sets off for the beach with five things: a turtle, an umbrella, a book, a ball, and a baby. When her car won't start, resourceful Roxanne tries alternate methods of transportation. Each time something has to be left behind, and youngsters are asked to identify the item. The illustrations play a key role, and Tharlet's perky pictures are up to the challenge. Interactive fun."
"Text and picturs mesh beautifully. Toddlers will love the uncomplicated story, while older preschoolers will be involved in guessing what must be left behind. An absolute delight."

About the Author:
J.D.Netto (Jorge de Oliveira Netto) is Brazilian-born. Raised in Framingham, MA, J.D.Netto always had an eye for epic fantasy and story-telling. At an early age, J.D.Netto had the habit of locking himself in his room, turning on any soundtrack he could find, and there he wrote for hours. During his senior year in High School, J.D.Netto had an idea that changed his life: 'What if Lucifer had a Diary? What if the Diary was a secret? What if the secret was a reality?' These simple questions led J.D.Netto to write for six consecutive years, creating the world of Elysium. Apart from writing, J.D.Netto is a graphic designer, musician, and an illustrator.
