Huw Lewis Jones and Fred Blunt have make a hilarious and humourous picture book that is sure to be enjoyed by kids and adults alike. I enjoyed the colourful backgrounds and dynamic art style immensely, it made the characters pop out of the background in a fun and engaging way. This book is funny and boldly illustrated, with minimal text making it perfect for younger readers with shorter attention spans. I will definitely be using this book in my Storytimes in the future, as well as checking out more books by this author and illustrator.
Thank you for the opportunity to read this arc.
This was very adorable read, I loved the illustrations and the story.
Will be getting this for my niece and nephew.
The art is colorful and gives the classic vibes of old school cartoons. The story itself was not as engaging for my nephews as I was hoping, but I do think the concept and idea was unique.

These are my favorite kinds of books to read aloud, even with small groups of kids. So many dangers along a jungle walk, but Dodo doesn't seem to notice. Very fun!
Children will enjoy the bright illustrations and humorous story about a Dodo that doesn't quite know that it is in danger for nearly the entire book.
Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC of Go Go Dodo. This is a humorous, very quick story of a dodo's walk through the jungle. He keeps safe through a bit of luck, and when things get dangerous, he runs back home. My only complaint is that I wish it was longer! Kids will really enjoy this funny story though, and the illustrations are so vibrant and colorful.
I loved this book! Hilarious story, and the illustrations are beautiful -- colorful and creative. The totally oblivious dodo had me laughing the whole way through. I think the humor may land better with older kids, maybe ages 5-7, but even younger kids will love the illustrations and the simple text.

Thank you for the ARC. What bright and colorful pictures. The story was simplistic but my son was a bit young for it yet. I think he will enjoy what mischief the tiger gets into once he better understands.
Thank you to Net Galley, Huw Lewis Jones and Fred Blunt for allowing me to review your work in exchange for an honest review.
I read this to my four-year-old twins as part of our 1,000 unique books before kindergarten quest, they thought it was hysterical! We read it twice because after they got the premise, they wanted to remember what mischief the tiger had gotten into on the previous page. I loved the ease-of-read, bright colors, and humor.
Thank you for allowing me to review your work.
