Winnie Perry’s sweet baby brother, Ty, is the quintessential dreamer, full of big ideas and wacky plans that only a seven-year-old boy could hatch. Whether it’s battling the family cat with a Dustbuster or smuggling a baby penguin out of the aquarium, Ty is always in the middle of a well-intended, big-hearted scheme.
In the spirit of the Judy Moody spinoff Stink series, Ty will work his way into the hearts and funny bones of a whole new generation of Myracle fans.
The Life of Ty: Penguin Problems was so gosh darn cute! Penguin must have sensed my need for an awesome children’s book. This is a really quick read, and I have to stress that it is meant for children. It’s a little lower than a middle grade book. It’s more of a children’s book, probably for younger elementary students.
The illustrations in The Life of Ty were well done. They fit in perfectly with the story and kept me entertained. I can see this book being a definite hit for younger kids. Heck, it was a big hit for me, and I’m well over the age range for this book!
I loved reading a children’s book focused on a boy. When I was growing up, there were a lot of books featuring girls, and it’s a nice change to see. Boys and girls alike are going to love this book, but boys especially are going to get a thrill following Ty and his silly adventures. There’s even this cute little plot featuring a penguin! And honestly…who doesn’t love penguins?
Parents…librarians….add this book to your collection! It’s going to be a big hit with your little ones, and you will not regret it!
