This series is just wonderful. This time our main character is letting his problem get the best of him and he can't stop worrying about it. Will he work through the problem or let it fester? Amazing illustrations throughout and a beautiful story.

A cute couple of books in this B&N exclusive found at a Friends of the Library store. Both feature characters with relatable difficulties and how they overcome them. As for the baseball book, it‘s a coffee table book that has a two page spread for each year. Pretty hefty. Very brief overviews. But it‘s baseball, so it‘s good. :)

The kindergartners drew heart maps after reading What do you do with a problem.

I‘m happy #FoodAndLit gave me a reason to go back to the beginning of this cozy mystery series set in #Botswana.

The later books in the series get a little silly, but this one is full of heart.

Thanks again @Texreader for sending the book.

Complaining too much? This book leads to the philosophy: no matter where you go, there you are. Classic Jory John humor and Lane Smith simplicity. 🐧🐧🐧🐧

2.5/5⭐ There's very little connective tissue to the story. Often an entire chapter goes onto a tangent into a side character's full history or Botswanan history/culture. The main plot doesn't make its presence known until 2/3 of the way through, and even then there's no sense of urgency or conflict/difficulty and it's distracted from with sideplots. I like the main character but there was never a hook for me. #roll100

Librarybelle I liked this one but wasn‘t in love with it, if that makes sense. I know others who absolutely devoured this series, they loved it that much. 2y
Ruthiella All the books are like this. I love ‘em but I can see where they would not appeal to everyone. 2y
