Harry is a little boy with a big imagination. (I wrote that before I read the book description, and I'm keeping it!) Join Harry as he battles his way through the perilous fields of lava. Who will save him?

Like the author's fabulous "My Yellow Umbrella", "Harry and the Hot Lava" celebrates childhood imagination and play, but this time from a boy's point-of-view. And of course, boys love adventure. Full of the author-illustrator's wonderful images and graphics, this book is sure to become a favorite with your little guy ... or girl. Just out of interest, Harry is based on the author's son, and the author himself also makes an appearance.

Another winner!

I received this book in return for an honest review.

My four year old loves playing “hot lava” in the house and watching the show on Netflix that came out this past summer. When I saw this book in the scholastic catalog I knew she needed it. The pictures are great and the writing is simple. Not my favorite bedtime book but my daughter really liked it.
