Roy, a wild boar is waiting for his clover patch to bloom. Once it does, he can have a snack of sweet blooms. But before this can happen, his neighbor, Jarvis the gopher distracts Roy will all kinds of interesting books. While Roy is busy reading his books, Jarvis sneaks into the patch and steals all of Roy’s clover. Roy has an idea to get even by getting his own book “How to Catch a Clover Thief”. This book lays out a very elaborate contraption that will catch the clover thief and send him off into space on a rocket. The contraption reminds me of a “Rube Goldberg Machine”, and it is fun to go through all the steps with your child.
The book displays great illustrations along with engaging word presentation. My grandchildren like all the Wup’s , Clonk’s, and more. It also shows young children that books can provide you with a wealth of knowledge. This book is a homerun and can be read again and again. It would be a great addition to any home library.
Fun Activities: Find out what a "Rube Goldberg Machine" is and build one. Look for a patch of clover in your neighborhood or local park.
