This is my kind of martial arts book; a beautifully illustrated picture book by Emily Arnold McCully who never wrote a bad book.

[picture book, ages 4 and up] There are so many books about young "Ninja Maxwell" by Arree Chung that we can't decide which one is our favorite because we love them all so much, too. This one, on the other hand, always makes me laugh. It drives Maxwell crazy when his parents and little sister are too busy to play with him. While he meditates alone, though, they come up with a plan of their own. They surprise him with some ninja moves of their own. One of the best stories about the power of being in one's "clan." Wink: The Ninja Who Wanted to be Noticed, by J.C. Phillips

We love Dan Santat’s illustration work. Combining it with Schwartz’s fresh spin on the Three Little Pigs ends up very cute. The ending won’t be much of a surprise for adults, but I love the spotlight on a female ninja and the happy ending achieved through practice. This book worked well even though Boy Detective wasn’t familiar with the Three Little Pigs fairy tale, as the strong storytelling and humor in this version stand completely on their own.
