King Boogie is written by N.D. Byma and illustrated by L.A. Harper. This is the story of King Boogie and his daily routine, as he is looked after by his royal caretakers, “N” and “M”. King Boogie lives in the royal tower at the top of his castle. Every day N and M see to his every need. They carry him to and from his tower, prepare his food, keep him entertained, and generally make sure he is happy. King Boogie has his special friend, a big blue bear called “Bear,” and he goes everywhere with the king. He’s also a messy king, and N and M have to constantly clean up after him. King Boogie also loves to dance and every time he hears music, he starts dancing. He enjoys every day, although N and M are exhausted by the end of the day.
This is a delightful story with lovely colourful illustrations that really enhance the story. Whilst an amusing tale of a rather spoiled and self-indulgent king, the story can really be likened to the everyday life of a young child. N and M would be the parents and King Boogie would be the mischievous and lively child. Most children have a special toy that they look on as their best friend and that is represented in the big blue bear. It is a sweet story that children will love to have read to them while they look at the busy and colourful pictures so cleverly created by the illustrator, L.A. Harper. The author, N.D. Byma, has penned a story to delight and one that will be perfect for parents to read and explain and relate to the child’s own behaviour.
