Editorial Reviews

I love that Buzz does not succeed in his first efforts, but keeps trying and I love the humor in the illustrations and story. It is told in simple, nearly all one-syllable words and is vividly illustrated with expressive characters. Beginning readers will find a lot of satisfaction in the “Buzz Beaker Books” series.
