Dynomike: What's Heartfulness? by Frankie B. Rabbit is another book in the Dynomike Book Series. The book starts with Dynomike as he is preparing for a day of fun with his friends. He meets up with Spunky and Winky, and together, they head for the home of Jack Brussels. When they arrive, Jack gives them the bad news: his mother is sick and needs someone to watch her, which means he can't go out to play with them. But this is just the precursor to the story. It is how these three friends respond to the situation that makes this book special for every child to read.

As with the other books in this series, I wasn't surprised to find rich and vivid illustrations. There wasn't a single instance of miscommunication between the drawings and the story. For instance, the character Spunky had a trademark pointy head, which makes sense given his name. The other character, Winky, always had one eye closed no matter her facial expression. This visual interpretation of the character's names will make it easy for kids to identify and distinguish between them.

I especially love the way the story was written in rhyme. The author made sure that the last word of every line on each page rhymed. This poetic style of writing will make the book even more fascinating and enjoyable for kids.

The message of Dynomike: What's Heartfulness? is a simple but powerful message, one that even adults forget sometimes. The actions of Dynomike and his friends teach kids to always look for a way to put others before themselves, even if it comes at a cost sometimes. True happiness is found when we make others smile, and this book pointed that out.

As with most of Frankie's books, this one was also professionally edited. I only found one grammatical error and one typographical error. Other than that, this was a perfect little book. There was absolutely nothing I hated about it. I rate it an unreserved 4 out of 4 stars, thanks to its excellent story, rhyming, illustrations, and the message of the book.

I'll recommend this book to every parent and teacher who wants to see their kids develop an attitude of sacrifice and kindness towards others. It will teach kids and remind adults of what it means to be selfless. The world needs a lot more of that.

Wow!
Children book reads are very tough to review.
Yet you pulled through and gave an honest review.
Thank you

this seems to be a enoyable book for children which will help them to improve their knowledge as well as critical thinking, while enjoying the story. Thanks for the well written review! :tiphat:
‘In a world that increasingly obsesses over the gods of power, money, and fame, a writer must remain detached, like a bird on a rail, watching, noting, probing, commenting, but never joining. In short, an outsider.”
