'Stephen Seagull is Bad' is a children's picture book written by Dawn Lippiatt. Stephen Seagull teaches what is good and bad. Dawn Lippiatt has written this book about a seagull named Stephen to live up to what his father seems to think how a seagull should behave. Stephen wants to make his father proud. Will he do it? Dawn has written a picture book that is quite descriptive in and on various behaviors exhibited by the main character of Stephen Seagull. The artwork seems to give me the impression of watercolors or even the use of pastels to give the readers the sense of a seaside environment and how seagulls live and act around others. The use of boldface words for emphasizing various words was a good technical device for young readers to understand the story. It could also be a good story to share about various cultures just by seeing some of the human characters and how they look.

Phew, I’m so glad it’s not about the actor who definitely has no place in children’s books. Or if he does, then as a villain in which case the title would be fitting, I guess.
I don't have kids, but I am tempted to look this one over...
