Young readers will be glad to welcome the lovable Lulu into their circle of friends. Publishers Weekly Hello, Lulu by Caroline Uff introduces readers to the star's family, pets and favorite snacks at Grandma's. Drawing, playing, dinner and bathtime are all parts of Lulu's Busy Day. Publishers Weekly British artist Uff's attractive debut children's book presents a charming chubby-cheeked girl and the people and things she cares about. The appealing art features bright backgrounds behind Lulu and her family, who appear in full-frontal views. The text is similarly direct: "This is Lulu. Hello, Lulu." "Look at Lulu's new shoes! Red is Lulu's favorite color." On this spread, the pictures segue from Lulu opening a shoe box holding red buckle shoes to a fully attired Lulu in a smart red dress, proudly sporting her new footwear. Children will readily recognize her: she has a teddy bear with a "wobbly" ear and three pets, and she blows "beautiful bubbles" with her best friend. Her dog likes biscuits; her grandma gives her cupcakes; and in a closing spread, her family loves her. Just right for youngsters ready to graduate from board books, this pleasing introduction to Lulu will have them wondering what she is going to do next. Children's Literature Hello, Lulu introduces readers to a little girl named Lulu and the different things that surround her. The picture book invites and holds its audience with bright colors and an easy-to-read text that unfolds Lulu's life. Readers learn about Lulu's surroundings on pages with bright backgrounds of blue, yellow and green. The subjects of the pictures are typically centered on the pages, putting them at the center of the reader's attention. Phrases such as "This is Lulu's mommy" resemble the language of a young child. This, for a younger audience, would be like talking to a friend. The text is also presented in a curvy, slightly shaky font much like a child's handwriting. The illustrations consist of curvy lines that give the reader a feeling of warmth and comfort. Several onomatopoeic sounds complement the illustrations, such as a car going "brrmm brrmm," a fish breathing, "blub blub," and a bubble going "pop." Variety is added when several things are illustrated at once on a divided page¾Lulu's favorite snacks at her grandmother's house and her three pets. Hello, Lulu uses simple, yet appealing textual and illustrative techniques to attract and entertain. While it seems to be geared toward a younger audience, children of all ages will enjoy it. Children's Literature Sometimes you long for a story that is simple. Uff offers just that--we meet Lulu and her family, find out that they all love each other, and that's it. The illustrations serve as the primary feature in this picture book, supplemented with simple sentences that are handwritten rather than type set. All of the family members wear cheerful smiles and have rosy cheeks--even the three pets look happy. Toddlers will enjoy the references to familiar objects (Lulu's teddy bear), and activities (snack time), and parents will appreciate the large illustrations as a jumping off point for c... read more
