Bernard Pepperlin by Cara Hoffman

4.0

Delightful. With wonderful illustrations, Hoffman takes some of the familiar elements from Alice in Wonderland and transforms them into a modern adventure through the strange land of New York City. Whimsical and full of adventure, the story of Bernard Pepperlin nevertheless captures timely and resonant themes about differences, apathy, and the power of community. It's a fun read that also has a lot to say about the world we live in, and Hoffman weaves those two halves of the story together into a fantastic adventure sure to delight readers of all ages.
