A rhyming children's picture book about an alpaca taking the narrator on a journey to right wrongs and save his friends. A heroic tale of teamwork, friendship, and adventure.Editorial Reviews:“Tuneful rhymes... The play of language is fascinating, and it may aid in the development of phonemic awareness in children. ...vibrant and zingy illustrations capture the alpacas adorably.” — KH“...a playful burst of color. ...beautifully illustrated. ...an adventure on paper. Everything about this book is terrific! ...I rate Alpaca in the Back’a my Car! four out of four stars.” — Sam I.
We saw Ben Farber juggling at a community event, and were so happy to get his charming book! It's full of playful, natural-sounding rhymes that move the story ahead in sweet and unexpected ways. For example, when there are 4 more alpacas in the car, "somehow they managed to pull shut the door/" and Ben's car has "alpacas from ceiling to floor." Even the number *4* rhymes on that page, and my daughter really enjoyed keeping track of the count while repeating the silly rhymes. As a lovely bonus, this book ended up being a starting point for a chat about how helping others provides great rewards, even if we sometimes have to give up some of our own comforts. We recommend this book!
