A review by cshcolson
The Jolly Regina by Kara LaReau

4.0

To be honest, I picked up this book after realizing it was the same author of my baby’s favorite book Good Night Little Monsters. I ended up really loving the story and the illustrations. I also loved the integration of the pirate language and the definitions of new words. While it was almost all completely charming, there is a portion of the plotline that centers on disordered eating / body shaming that I honestly didn’t think was necessary, and I dropped a star for that.
