Author Michele DePalma excites and entertains readers with a hilariously wild adventure in her vibrantly illustrated book, Joey and Hercules. Most moms think kids are always making a mess. Although it is quite debatable, it may hold true in the story of Joey and Hercules, a young boy and the family's English mastiff, who make a mess during their hilarious misadventure. Readers can witness how they spread havoc inside the house when the boy's mom was not around and see if they would be able to face her disappointment.
It is but common for children to have fun with their pets in the house-they would call it a wonderful adventure and bonding. In this amusing book, the author wittingly crafted a unique tale that will remind young readers of the true meaning of adventure and misadventure. Joey, the perfect young boy and 200-pound slobbering, stinking, food mooching English mastiff tandem exemplifies the beauty of friendship-a bond that offers protection demonstrated by how they try to save each other from the intruders in their make-up game. The story takes a wild turn when the height of their excitement in the game leads them into the pit of disorder, a misadventure that will show children the boundary between fun and mess.
Readers cannot miss the mess these two characters make during this hilarious misadventure. They must find out if the house would ever look the same and see if they would be able to pacify the boy's mothers- steaming annoyance after what she saw. Also packed with colorful illustrations, this book is a perfect tool for parent-children bonding and to teach children lessons about friendship, fun, obedience, orderliness, discipline, and the true meaning of adventure.
