Read to my 4 year old. This was a hit for both of us (huge Bluey fans).

I want to like this more, but it just makes me so sad (although the last page is a perfectly chosen still of Bandit getting attacked lol). I suppose it reminds me too much of my childhood, without the happy ending. Ouch.

As always, I love the cute little bluey books. I love how the text is always colored to coordinate with the different characters. I love how some pages are full spread and some are paneled like comics. I love how the characters work out their conflicts and remain empathetic and will to change. This book shows Bluey, Bingo, and their friend Judo playing butterflies, a game when (utilizing a hanging swing) the characters "using pretend) transform into butterflies and have to be caught. It's tag with a fantastical element of make-believe. Judo however, isn't wanting to play with Bingo and is also being very bossy.

This is the best Bluey narrative I have seen with really great social-emotional learning about how to stand up for a little sister (or any friend, really) instead of leaving someone behind. Bingo's "poor little bug on the wall, ding ching, no one to love him at all, ding ching" song adds to the pathos. Besides not knowing that song, there were no geospecific references or inside jokes or potty humor. Bluey does the right thing, and the kids are playing imagination games including Butterflies and Phone. Wholesome, good read.

We found this book checking out a local independent bookshop, I offered it to my son (2) initially but he was in a mood and rejected it, so his sister (5) took it and she's read it about 5 times in the last day. We watch the show, so the kids are familiar with the characters, and the stories that are involved. It's a cute story based on an episode, and the kids having seen the show did help with reading the book.

A very enjoyable book to add to our Bluey collection.

Bluey and Bingo are playing butterflies with Judo. But when Judo wants to abandon Bingo in the middle of playing butterflies, she convinces Bluey to join her. Bluey feels bad, and the trio has to have a talk about including everyone.

There’s a good lesson in here about including others when playing together. The creators of Bluey definitely understand the stream of consciousness of kids, and how it can jump from one thing to another on a whim.

Bluey and Bingo are playing butterflies with Judo. When Judo gets impatient with Bingo and convinces Bluey to leave Bingo all alone during the game, Bluey agrees. Feeling sad and left out, Bingo ends up alone. When Bluey starts to feel guilty and wants to go back to Bingo, Judo doesn't. Finally Bluey steps up and leaves Judo to go find Bingo.

When the three are back together, they come to agree that no one can be left behind and instead they need to play together.

Jack borrowed this book from the Canal Winchester library. He was excited to see that they have Bluey books and picked this one himself.

I'm surprised how much Jack liked the book, as this episode has never been a huge favorite. But he listened to the whole thing and giggled hysterically at the caterpillar/butterfly game. He showed appropriate sympathy when Bingo was upset and seemed to like the little song, too.

3.5 stars--The older pups leave a younger sibling out of a game they are playing, and learn an important lesson. This is a sweet, relatable story for small kids about playing fair and including everyone in the game.

[Brendan Ward · Rating 5 out of 5]

An adorable children’s story set within the Bluey universe. Kids will love that it’s about Bluey and parents will appreciate the strong moral lesson of the book.

[Aleisha Froude · Rating 4 out of 5]

Exactly like the tv episode. My 5 year old was able to read it. Both my 5 year old and 2 year old enjoyed it.

I mean what's not to love about a Bluey storybook?
POOR LITTLE BUG ON THE WALL
NO ONE TO LOVE HIM AT ALL

[curiouskat_books · Rating 2 out of 5]

It is exactly the scene from the show which makes it less fun to read.

[Robyne · Rating 5 out of 5]

Adorable children’s book featuring Bluey and Bingo. This one teaches a lesson about playing together and not hiding from your friends and/or siblings— including them in games and play time.

All of the bluey books just fill me with joy. This one was very cute and the child I was reading it to loved it. I love how the books perfectly mirror the show so there are no surprises.

[Melanie Constance · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love reading bluey books to my children. This one is sad because bingo gets left behind but it teaches forgiveness and apologizing. Such cute story that my kids love.
