White Dynamite & Curly Kidd (Owlet Book)

This book would be a good option for a read aloud book for primary aged students.
This book is about a young child who wants to be a bull rider like their father. Throughout the whole book, the reader is led to believe the child is a young boy, but it is later revealed in the book that the young child is a girl, and she wants to be a bull rider just like her father.
I would choose to read this book in my class because it is a great book that breaks down the gender stereotype that only boys can be bull riders. In today's world, gender stereotypes aren't as bad as they were when this book is published, but it is still a book that could be used to show that everyone can do anything they put their mind to.

"White Dynamite and Curly Kidd" by Bill Martin Jr. is about a son and father's conversation before and during a bull riding tournament. Curly Kidd's father, rides bulls and the two talk about how to cope with the nerves and anxiety of having a loved one on a bull. The story was a bit confusing to read because nothing was in quotes or cited of who is saying what. Although the story was a bit confusing, I enjoyed Martin's style and use of rhythm when writing. He used expression in the text as Curly Kidd counted places while coping with his dad being on the Bull.

This book would be good for primary and lower intermediate students. It would be good to showcase different family units and teach about stereotypes. The book is about a father who is a bull rider and his kid who wants to be just like him, and at the end we find out his kid is a girl.

This is a good book for a primary age group. It tells the story of a girl interacting with her father, a famous bull rider. I wouldn't prioritize having it in my classroom, but it could be a good example of telling a story through dialogue.

Father and child have a conversation as dad prepares to ride a bull iin the rodeo. Very sweet story about family bonding. Amazing illustrations - shows the wild action of the rodeo in full color and full page.

This book would be good for all ages to show that just because youre a girl doesnt mean that you cant do boy sports. It is a story about believing in yourself even though others might think that youre something else

this book was super cute because it shows the patience that a father has for his daughter. i would use in classroom just for reading itme or to have on my shelf.
