Midwest Book Review –
“”The Kingdom Of Fu Fu reveals a whimsical land of creatures who live in a blue and yellow island home. When a young little Fu Fu is swept away by a sudden storm from his home and finds himself on a distant shore, he learns that Fu Fus are just blue and yellow, but come in every color and live happily together. Robert Spalding’s engaging, imaginative, and entertaining story is aptly illustrated by Chris Lyle and subtly teaches young readers about diversity and friendship. With its strong theme of friendship and diversity, The Kingdom Of Fu Fu is highly recommended for school and library picture book collections.””
