This review is from: Go Go Sadie (Hardcover)
This was an adorable book with some fun quirkiness and adorable illustrations. The story starts with telling us a bit about Sadie and how she's a sloth and what she does. Then it tells us just a bit about Costa Rica and some of the animals that live there. It then moves on to the story about Sadie who is going to run a marathon. She gets some new running shoes {funny and cute for the kids} and my children {6 &2} loved pointing out the running shoes on all the animals. Sadie runs the race even though she's really slow but her friends help and she completes the race even though she knows she's last. The end of the book includes coloring pages as well {kids loved that!}.

This is a medium length book that didn't take me long to read to my children. They enjoyed pointing out different things and I felt like they 'got' the message. The illustrations are full spreads and very colorful. I felt like I got a 'feel' for Costa Rica and the scenery as well as the animals that live there.

The whole family enjoyed this book and the kids are always eager for me to pick it up and read it to them again.
