Kit Feeny: On the Move

Kit Feeny: On the Move by Michael Townsend (978-0-375-85614-3)

This was on a recent list of recommended books, so I signed off on it when it came up on the ordering list for last month. I didn't realize it had actually come in until recently. Quick summary of the plot: Kit Feeny's family moves, and he misses his best friend greatly. This book reminds me a lot of a boy-oriented version of Babymouse, especially with all the art being in black, white, and orange (like Babymouse's signature pink) and the book being of a similar size. The humor is a bit cruder, but again, that seems to give it more boy appeal. I'm sure it will do well on our shelves.
