- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A ninja needs special skills and special tools, as the narrator of this tongue-in-cheek picture-book informs us, chronicling his own super-secret ninja mission. Whether it's sneaking up on his snoozing father or stealing some milk and cookies from his baby sister, a ninja has to be able to make himself invisible, and get in and out of a room quickly...The first book that author/artist Arree Chung both wrote and illustrated, Ninja! is an entertaining look at a young boy's imaginative world. Although I never imagined myself as a ninja when I was a girl, I certainly engaged in quite a bit of make-believe role-playing, taking on the role of everything from princess to pirate, so I found this tale both amusing and relatable, and I imagine that many young children will do likewise. The artwork, created with acrylic paint, found paper and Photoshop, works well with the text. All in all, a fun picture-book, one I would recommend to anyone looking for children's stories about ninjas, or about a youngster's imaginative games.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great fun for young ninja wannabes everywhere.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5There aren't enough words to praise this book!Super cute! Imaginative! Sweet! Adorable!Maxwell is a ninja! His mission today is to get the cookies and milk...a ninja must be quick, but quiet. He must be the master of danger and surprises.Let no obstacles get in the way of accomplishing his mission. I feel that this book can encourage small children to use their imagination not only in playtime, but to use their 'ninja skills' in everyday situations too - especially with small ones that are still learning to talk, or have a hard time using their words. Being a ninja requires patience and strategy. Max is not only trying to get the cookies, but he also has to get 'the cup' and milk... not an easy task with a little sister around. Once Max masters his ways, he decides to share what he's learned and accomplished with his younger sibling. A very sweet ending indeed. I cannot get over adorable this book is!The illustrations are so different and original - most picture books are expected to be cutesy with either pastel-like or monochromatic colors. NINJA isn't! It's dark and mysterious, just like a ninja. The illustrator was not afraid to go where no other children's picture book has gone - with the unexpected dark color scheme and pages. But still managed to keep the little boys adventure in a light tone in a way that a small child can relate too and not be afraid by it. Extremely fun and light-hearted! I highly recommend this book to children ages 2 and up.Especially if you have a little ninja on the loose... look behind you!
