One Toy, Two Toys, Too Many… Shoo Toys: A Rhyming Tale of Two Toys Too Many

In an age of consumerism, this book tells the tale of a friendly family of blue avian alien birds that ends up learning there are other things that are much more important than ‘things.’ As Miss Capri says at the end: It’s easy to want to have all of the gizmos in the galaxy … Especially when there are so many clever things to play with. But please remember that shiny bright objects often fill a void in our lives that otherwise might be filled with good old fashioned LOVE!

The book reminds one of a classic cautionary Dr. Seuss tale combined with Shel Silverstein’s Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout, (who would not take the garbage out). The illustrator, Sneha Paradeshi, captures a fanciful cast of characters that include really cute reptillians, playful praying mantis, alongside greys and greens with antennas. The blue avian’s favorite toys are of course, a spaceship and a human baby doll!Perfect for someone who loves stories about outer space, UFOs, and Area 51. Guaranteed to make you smile every night you read it.
