Why a Disguise?

I think this is a great book that focuses on creativity. I like how the boy uses his disguise to help with what he thinks are problems in his life. I Think its great for students to use creativity and this book really focuses on it. I love how the author used different problems kids may face so it can be relatable to them. I also love all the different illustrations used in the book to show this issues.

I will not say that this book was enjoyable because I honestly did not like it and the illustrations seemed very dingy and outdated but I think it is because this book was written in 1996. However, I will stay for a book being written 22 years ago, it definitely held up and the message is quite adorable. It is all about being is disguise is fun but being yourself is okay too.

The purpose of a disguise is to hide one’s true identity and fool other’s into believing that he or she has is actually someone else. Why a Disguise? provides example situations of when a disguise could be useful. However, at the end of the book, it reminds readers that it’s important to still be yourself.

A cute book about a little boy who dresses in disguise so he doesn't have to do things. The story also has the little boy explaining why the disguise and why he wears it. The book is cute and it would be very enjoyable for children to read. The book shows how the little boy teaches his sister how to dress in a disguise. Very cute book to read to a class one day.
