As a parent, I have been discouraged when browsing the available selections for young readers. Whatever happened to "How to Eat Fried Worms", "The Great Brain", "Henry Reed", or "Ramona the Pest"? It seems now as if children's books only consist of witches, sorcerers, and vampires? What happened to the innocence?
I stumbled upon "Introducing Serina K., Ph.D. and Future Famous Person" while browsing through Amazon. The book was published through PublishAmerica, a young publishing company that is growing rapidly. On a whim, I ordered the book based on its description posted on Amazon. If it was half as good as the review described, I knew that I would be in for a treat. I was not disappointed.
Growing up as a fan of "The Great Brain" series and "The Henry Reed" series by Keith Robertson, I have been searching for a book that resembles the innocent mischief of childhood that could live up to the same standards.
"Introducing Serina K., Ph.D. and Future Famous Person" is a hilarious throwback to those books of yesteryear. I laughed nearly the whole way through it. The premise is the misadventures of a third grader as she tries to raise money to go to the carnival. Along the way, the character learns many lessons about growing up as she delves into various business ventures. Hilarity and insanity ensues. I hope that the author continues the character as a series. For now, the book can be ordered from Amazon or Booksamillion.com.
