Such an adorable and hilarious book exploring the silliness of classroom lineups!

Have you ever been the line leader? Ever? Is it fun? Or is it fun being the 'Caboose'?

Title: Caboose

Author: Travis Jonker

Illustrator: Ruth Chan

Publisher: Abrams Books for Young Readers

If you have ever been a line leader you know that you control the line - you can make it go fast or slow like a turtle - it is up to the line leader! The silly chaotic part of being the line leader is that you can also make the students in the line abruptly stop and tumble over one another!!! So, now we know that the line leader is 'super powerful'.

In this story, Cedric aims to be the first in line always and when he becomes the line leader, his silliness gets a little too crazy that he gets ousted away to the back of the line. Oops!

But, does he stop his pranks after losing the spot of the line leader??? What do you think???

HINT: It is going to be a little too tough to control Cedric's tricks!!!

📚 A delightful read for kids who are in school (especially little kids!)

📚 Illustrations hilariously drive and support the story beautifully well.

📚 Recommended for kids ages 4+
