5 out of 5 stars Amazing book for a speech/motor delayed 4 year old.......2003-10-31

My son loves this story...and reading it together gives us wonderful opportunities to talk about fun new concepts and phrases like "wierd" "spiky" "why - why would a boy wear a bag on his head?" "why would a boy cut holes in the bag first" "what do you think happened to his hair?" etc...It strikes a perfect balance of telling a fun story, while keeping a little bit of mystery for the parents and kids to discuss. Cool ilustrations too.

4 out of 5 stars A "Bag" Idea............2003-03-05

"On Wednesday morning, Josh had an idea. A very BIG idea. A very BROWN idea. A very BIG, BROWN, BAG idea..." After cutting holes for his eyes and mouth, Josh dons a paper bag and heads downstairs for breakfast, and then off for his busy day at school and soccer practice. None of the adults in his life, his parents, bus driver, teacher, or soccer coach is pleased when they see his bagged head... "You can't eat breakfast with a paper bag on your head!" "You crazy kid! You can't go to school like that!" "How do you plan to play like that?" But to their surprise, he has quite a successful day, even scoring three goals during his game. Finally at dinner, his little sister asks the big question we've all been waiting for... "Why are you wearing a bag, Josh?" Jarrett Krosoczka's simple, charming, humorous story engages, and is complemented by bold, bright and expressive illustrations. The inevitable answer to Josh's unusual heargear is revealed at the end, and youngsters 4-8 are sure to enjoy his sister's creative solution to the "baghead" problem.

5 out of 5 stars great fun, wonderfully rendered.......2002-09-16

Baghead is terrific - fun and funny and engaging on every page, with a surprise ending every kid will adore. I read it to a group of eleven-year-olds, and they loved it, too. What a delightful story - I'm glad I stumbled across this book!
