Book Description:

Rocket Red is a little guitar-playing, singing ant who dreams of becoming a big rock star. His mom, the queen ant, disapproves! She believes his job is to work and feed the ant colony. The only one who seems to believe in him is his pal, Beebop Bea.

One day, delayed by practicing with his Lucky Bug Band, Red finds himself all alone and in a dreadful jam. Can his music somehow save him?

I received an advance review copy for free and am leaving this review voluntarily. Thank you Cheryl DaVeiga and iRead Book Tours. I'm excited to be a part of this tour.

Oh my! Can this series get any cuter? I continue to be impressed with the illustrations and colorful pages contained within this book! The characters are well developed and the premise of Rocket Red and his big dreams about being a rock star set against the backdrop of his mother’s approval is full of positivity. The underlying message is that you can accomplish big things so long as you believe in yourself. The cast of characters added to this story and helps the reader learn how to lean into those who support you while ignoring those who don’t. This is an important life lesson. The fun facts about the ants were a perfect addition to the book.

The accompanying workbook is also a lot of fun and engaging. It offers a mix of coloring, puzzles, and games. I could see this book being a regular part of your young readers because it’s aesthetically pleasing with elements that stick with you. I’m not sure I’m going to be able to let this one go and I look forward to reading more!

    Mystery Date Published: March 15, 2023     An obscure rock'n'roll roadie dies under mysterious circumstances. His prized Jimi Hendrix guitar has gone missing. Can Rolly Waters save his new client from the ruthless collectors looking for it?
