Book cover Who is Melvin Bubble?
Nick Bruel (2006) , under 40 pages
Illustrated by
Audience: Primary (k-3rd grade), Intermediate (4th-6th grade)
Category: Humor, NCCBA, Read Aloud
(This book has outstanding illustrations)


The book begins with a boy named Jimmy writing a letter to the author asking him to write a book about his best friend, Melvin. What follows are mini- interviews from characters in his life. For example, there are characters who know Melvin well, like his mom, dad, teddy bear, and even Santa Claus. Then, there are those characters that don't know Melvin at all, like a zebra and a mean man, but they add to the silly fun of the picture book. Bruel's fun illustrations mostly cover two-pages and much of the text is written in conversation bubbles. So, who is Melvin Bubble?? Read to the very end to find out.
