Poet Eric Ode has created a hilarious read-aloud about the town of Mossy Pockets and the birthday party the residents throw for reluctant Bigfoot. Internal rhyme gives the growing lists of people, instruments, pies, and animals a delightful momentum. The party excitement builds until it all comes to a pie-smashing disaster.

Bigfoot Does Not Like Birthday Parties, by Eric Ode

Review A town prepares for Bigfoot's birthday—whether Bigfoot wants a party or not. The town of Mossy Pockets is abuzz with excitement. Today is Bigfoot's birthday! But alas, he will not be at the party because (as readers are told in no uncertain terms, with the words sprawled boldly across the page) Bigfoot does not like birthday parties. It's no matter. The town gathers anyway. The mayor, in his dapper plaid suit, the marching band, the baker with tray piled high with pies, and all the rest: "the cowboy in his boots and vest, / the lady with the purple hat, / the circus clown, the acrobat." They all parade to the mountains to celebrate. Bigfoot, who in theory should be far away since he dislikes parties so much, has bright blue fur and is seen hiding (ineffectively) on almost every page—peering around corners, concealed in trees, etc. His proximity muddles the suspense a bit, but a comical, cumulative chain of events resulting in a pie-flying catastrophe will make readers (and Bigfoot) smile. Temairik's flat illustrative style, with pops of color, is full of visual wit—not to mention particularly diverse townsfolk. An energetic read-aloud with plenty of repetition and zest.—Kirkus ReviewsThis is a fun, imaginative, brightly colored book with a large, bright blue Bigfoot. There are fun things to find on every page: no two of the town’s people are the same. It is well written and illustrated, fun for any kid and any parent who will likely be forced to read it again and again.—Portland Book Review

Bigfoot is not a good hider By Darilee Bednar Bigfoot does NOT like BIRTHDAY PARTIESWritten by Eric OdeIllustrated by Jaime TemairikReviewers Leilani Smith and GrammyLeilani, aged 5, says.I liked the pictures.I liked finding Bigfoot on the pages.I liked all the people. There was the girl with the pink hair and the girl with the flute and the boy with the clarinet and the lady with the purple hat. I didn’t like the dog. I liked the fly and Bigfoot.The dog was sleeping so he didn’t see the snake,The frog saw the snake so he hidThe fly didn’t want to be near the frog but he liked the pies.The baker baked 26 pies. I know because I counted them.Bigfoot does not like Birthday Parties but he does like Birthday Messes.Grammy are you writing this down.Grammy, aged old, saysIt is obvious that the author is a song writer. There is a cadence to most of the words and definitely bits and pieces of chorus. The story is a little longish but, because of the storyline, it is an easy quick read. The repeating of words and phrases helped my 5 year old beginner reader to identify words and complete sentences.The drawings kind of reminded me of 1950 Dick and Jane type artwork with a multi-cultural representation.Of all the books we have read together this book was the first one that was a requested repeat reader and the book review took two days to write.Together we give it 5 stars because Leilani really liked it. The Best Part for Leilani was when the mayor knocking over the pie baker… and Grammy thought it was the head on view of the fly.A good read for a beginner reader. No violence. Not scary. Plenty of action and no one gets hurt or angry.SincerelyDarilee Bednar. Third Street Books, downtown Marysville

Leaves us still wondering why Bigfoot doesn't like birthday parties By Travis Ann Sherman A children's picture book dealing with Bigfoot AND birthday parties! This book would seem to hit two very hot topics in the market right now. There's a woeful lack of good children's books dealing with either subject, and both subjects are endlessly fascinating to kids today.Unfortunately this book just misses the mark. A child getting ready for his/her own party would be bewildered by the preparations being made for Bigfoot's. No invitations, no guests, no party favors or decorations. Instead the mayor is putting on his fancy suit, a lady wears a purple hat and the baker bakes a lot of pies. True the text rhymes -- if it doesn't quite scan -- but that doesn't seem enough. So we have a procession of people and pies, determined to celebrate Bigfoot's birthday while he hides on every page, and then in the middle of it there's one of those episodes of the fly startles the frog who wakes the snake who chases the frog who wakes the dog on the log, the fly lands on the pies and everything goes flying. A giant birthday mess. Which Bigfoot just loves.It's a cheerful book for an enjoyable read, cute, but not fantastic. We're still left with wondering why Sasquatch doesn't like birthday parties. The attention? The cake? The presents? And you know, that issue could have been addressed in this book using the shy Bigfoot character. It wasn't.

The illustrations are quite clunky, and the rhyme and rhythm are not consistent and broken at times, so the text does not go fluidly, at least for me. But then my 6 year old got a hold of the book, and we read it again and again every day for a whole week. I know that part of the appeal for him was the marching band members joining the party - his brother is in the school band, so this theme is familiar for him. Another thing that seems to be appealing is the birthday party theme - he just cannot wrap his mind about the idea of someone who does not like parties. The story ends with huge mess when a whole bunch of pies flies through the air and lands precisely on each every party attendee's head, including the Bigfoot, too, and what 6 year old can resist this kind of mess?Seems like my son enjoyed the book very much, much more than me, he picked it up and read it himself a few times, too, he laughed a lot, and wanted to share with family. So, I was wrong about the book.
