Description of The Good Egg
From School Library Journal K-Gr 2�From the creators of The Bad Seed comes an organic and locally sourced tale of the importance of self-care. A self-identified 'good egg' lives in a carton at the farmer's market with 11 other eggs who all have a tendency to misbehave. The good egg tries to be perfect and take charge but eventually, the stress of it all starts to show and it becomes clear that a big change is needed. So the good egg sets off on a journey of self-discovery and self-care that involves relaxation, meditation, and even painting. Finally, the good egg returns home having learned that nobody is perfect and it's important to take time to be good to yourself and your fellow eggs. The illustrations are an egg-cellent source of amusement with the 11 'bad eggs' practicing feats of naughtiness and rude behavior at every opportunity. Images veer from melodramatic to preposterous and some of the jokes may fly over the heads of children, but will get adults laughing. The simple text provides an important counterbalance to the absurdity of the illustrations and the focus on self-care provides a helpful starting point for conversations about being true to yourself and how to take time for self-reflection. VERDICT Perfect for storytime and one-on-one sharing, hand this to readers seeking comic silliness with a deeper message of self-reflection and kindness.�Laken Hottle, Providence Community Library Read more Review �Eggs-quisitely excellent.� (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))� [An] earnest counterpart to John and Oswald�s hilarious The Bad Seed (2017)� (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))�Both text and art complement each other perfectly.� (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))�John embeds a seed of a great idea�finding a balance between personal and social responsibility�within a rip-roaring, touching narrative.� (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))�Oswald�s digitally composed, bright artwork pops with rib-tickling close-ups and character-building moments.� (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))�[A]nother thought-and laughter-provoking morality tale...� (Booklist (starred review))�The art, using watercolor textures and digital paint, is filled with comic detail...� (Booklist (starred review))�An enormously entertaining lesson about the perils of perfectionism.� (Booklist (starred review))�...an organic and locally sourced tale of the importance of self-care.� (School Library Journal)�The illustrations are an egg-cellent source of amusement...� (School Library Journal) Read more From the Back Cover I�ve always been a very good egg.I bet you�re wondering, How good can one egg really be?Well . . .
