Bentley's Best Birthday EVER! Book Tour Giveaway

 

My Review: 

Bentley's Best Birthday Ever! is yet another wonderful and sweet story by Claire Eckard. It is about an excessively giant of a dog named Bentley, who is celebrating his birthday. While he thinks his friends has disappeared on his big, they are actually secretly planning a surprise party for him. It was a fun adventure following the characters around and eagerly waiting for the big reveal. His friends were so cute making sure everything so special for their huge friend. It really warmed my heart reading the lengths they took for Bentley’s big day. 

Bentley's Best Birthday Ever! is illustrated by the talented artist, Anne York. The pictures are colorful and vivid. They perfectly follow story and help bring the characters to life. They help the story flow and make it easy for younger readers stay focused on the  story. I loved seeing Bentley and his friends brought to life. 

Bentley's Best Birthday Ever! is getting a very well deserved five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for readers who are between the ages of four and eight. It would be a great addition to a classroom’s reading shelf, as well as, the local library. As always, I look forward to see where else Claire Eckard will take my young ones to next in her upcoming releases. 

I received a soft cover copy of Bentley's Best Birthday Ever! from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
