If your child loves FGTEEV, this book is a MUST HAVE!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Our 8 yr old has been an FGTeeV fan since he was 3! And as a mother of boys that love YouTube, I can say that this channel/family is just all around awesome. I love how family orientated they are, you can feel the love & respect they have for each other. They’re not as annoying for us parents as some of the other channels (if you know, you know!) So when our son wants a book, we buy it! He has the whole collection now! He rereads them all the time. We also have the activity book on preorder. The books are all set up in comic style. So when our son was learning how to read, this made it entertaining for him & easy to digest. There’s a lot of lingo that is based off of FGTeeV’s YouTube channel. I can’t tell you what they’re about, but our son is constantly entertained & proud to show us what is going on in the books. The graphics are a great representation of the family, who are the main characters on YouTube channel & the book… including the dog Oreo! I wish more YouTubers focused on books like this for children. It’s great way to get them off the iPad & get their brains & imagination running!
