Book Review: Little Bit Big Byte, Go Green

Little Bit  Big Byte, Go GreenLittle Bit  Big Byte, Go Green by Craig Feigh

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


 The new book by Craig T. Feigh is a fresh addition in the ‘Little Bit & Big Byte’ series and this time with a relevant and an important message which is imperative for children of today’s day and age to understand.

The book opens with an innocent pictorial riddle, asking the reader to find the recycle logo and then moves onto weave a story around the importance of environment and energy conservation by saving our natural resources.

The author takes examples from the real-life scenarios and immediately provides the ways by which one can contribute towards saving the environment while doing the daily chores. ‘Go Green’, very effectively captures the imagination of a child and help him/her connect the cause with the impact.

The language is conversational, and the characters are relatable. A short 33-page story is beautifully illustrated read with attractive colors and nice-looking characters. The illustrator, ‘Patrick Carlson’, has done a commendable job in creating eye-catching sketches and complementing them with his startling color palette. The illustrations are the backbone of the story and keep the reader hooked and looking out for more.

It’s an excellent read not only for the kids but also for the adults, which very effectively first instill the importance of saving the planet and then lists down the ways in which one can contribute.

The book ends with an uncolored sketch of the characters to kindle the creative side of the reader and gives them an opportunity to paint their world of imagination.

Sweet memories from 90s!

Lets confess, we all loved those colourful sweet balls called toffees and candies. Every kid's prized possession, one look at them now will take you to back down the memory lane.
