From School Library Journal:
Davide Cali is an illustrator, cartoonist, and children's book author. He has published more than 40 books, including I Didn't Do My Homework Because . . . His books have been translated into more than 20 languages. He lives in Paris, France.
K-Gr 2—The young hero of I Did Not Do My Homework Because...(Chronicle, 2014) is back, this time with inventive reasons why he was late for school. The fantastical tale has it all—giant ants that steal his breakfast, a ninja attack, an encounter with Yeti and Bigfoot, invading aliens, and many other unlikely escapades. A clever twist at the end involving a time machine and dinosaurs imparts unexpected credibility to the boy's story. The plot might be somewhat tenuous and the series of events seemingly random, but nonetheless are true to how a child's runaway imagination might work. Chaud's signature cartoon illustrations delight with eccentric and humorous details on every page, the expressions of the protagonist's canine companion especially silly and fun to follow. VERDICT Best suited for a personal perusal or one-on-one sharing due to its small format, this book will appeal to fans of Cali and Chaud's previous work as well as those who appreciate a whimsical romp.—Yelena Alekseyeva-Popova, formerly at Chappaqua Library, NY
