Pure interactive fun between two covers! A book that begs to be doodled in with 96 wacky prompts, games, and crafts, and adorable creatures to boot, The Kid's Awesome Activity Book is packed with activities that take delightful twists and turns, inviting kids to design, draw, and dream--and encouraging creativity on and off the page. Enter an ancient cave to decode a mummy's message. Find your way through a beehive maze. Write a song for a cat rock band. Design a personalized spaceship--and so much more. Plus, plenty of goodies to return to again and again for hands-on play: paper dolls, finger puppets, bonus stickers, and a giant pullout poster designed to kindle curious minds and active imaginations. A great boredom-buster for travel or rainy days, and a fun birthday or holiday gift. From the author and illustrator of the Doodle Adventures(R) series and based on the Kid's Awesome Activity Calendar, the book showcases Lowery's inimitable quirky style and humor that clicks with all ages--get the whole family in on the fun!

Starred Review

With bold, goofy artwork, a plethora of activities, and more than 400 stickers, this jam-packed offering from Lowery (the Doodle Adventure series) lives up to its name. Opportunities for creativity abound: "Design an ugly sweater for this fox," Lowery invites on one spread. Elsewhere, readers can draw new hairstyles in a "Monster Hair Salon" and count the number of gnomes in a "super old library." Punch-out pieces broaden the range of activities: readers can make an alien-themed flip book, finger puppets, and a mask. Jokes and wordplay accompany the cast of loveable, dopey, and deadpan characters, and a detachable poster makes this exhilarating interactive book even more multidimensional. Ages 6-11. (June)

"With bold, goofy artwork, a plethora of activities, and more than 400 stickers, this jam-packed offering from Lowery (the Doodle Adventure series) lives up to its name...Jokes and wordplay accompany the cast of loveable, dopey, and deadpan characters, and a detachable poster makes this exhilarating interactive book even more multidimensional." —Publishers Weekly, starred review

"More than 90 prompts, crafts and activities cram the pages of this wackily rendered mine of creativity. Let the doodling begin, and don't let the 'Kids' in the title put you off— no matter what their age, everyone in the family will want to partake." —The Florida Times-Union
