What is Ivan reading?

Mostly he wants Captain Underpants books, but other recent book loves include:

Big, MEAN Mike by Michelle Knudson
Big mean Mike is being followed by cute bunnies and is worried about his tough image, but it turns out bunnies can be a lot of fun at a monster truck rally. So many appeals for Ivan! This one was his prize from summer reading at the DGPL.

Shake to Assemble – Tap the Hulk to Start the Action by Calliope Glass finally a book that invites the reader to tickle Bruce Banner and roar at him to piss him off enough to become the HULK.

Monsters Love Colors by Mike Austin
Each grey monster asks to be made a new color which means mixing and scribbling and dibbling paints all over the page. This one harkens back to Ivan’s love of Color Crew videos that featured crayons coloring in a scene in the incorrect colors which got sorted out by Mr. Eraser.

Anton and the Battle by Ole Konnecke
Anton wants his friend Luke to know that whatever he can do Anton can do it bigger, louder and more destructively until they are both scared up into a tree by a puppy.

Froggy Goes Out by Jonathan London
First encountered as a read aloud in the library at school, Ivan has become a fan of the Froggy books especially this one about looking for all the things one needs to go out on a bike ride. Particularly funny is dad is looking for the backpack and Froggy points out it is already on his back.

And here is Ivan the day of his big sister’s birthday party which he spent sick. Note that our friend buckety is behind him just in case.
