Final Smackdown Quest VS Finding Winnie
Grade 4 Mini Mighty Smackdown
Opinion
The winner of our final Smackdown with a vote of 27/49 was QUEST, by Aaron Becker!
We chose this wordless picture book for many different reasons, one of the most important was that it demanded that we use our imagination to explain the story. This forced the reader to really pay attention to the images. Depending on who the reader is, the perspective could also change. It seemed that there was suspense on every page, leaving the reader have to see what was happening instead of just reading the words. The details in the illustrations really brought out the characters different emotions and personalities. We loved the idea of how it was kids who saved the king and his whole kingdom. This helps remind the reader that kids can do BIG things and make a difference in the world. This book shows cooperation and teamwork throughout. The illustrations were like a beautiful painting that came to life. The illustrations started out as dull gray in colour and moved into to bright colours as the adventure unfolded and new crayons were found. You would really like this book if you like to use your imagination and like reading about magical worlds.
