The Boss Baby Junior Novelization

by Tracey West (Adapted by)

Join everyone’s favorite boss for a hilarious adventure with this take-charge retelling of The Boss Baby!

DreamWorks Animation’s The Boss Baby, based on the Simon & Schuster book by Marla Frazee, is now an Oscar-nominated motion picture!

From the day the Boss Baby arrived in a taxi, life would never be the same for his older brother, Tim. Sure, the Boss Baby had Tim’s parents wrapped around his chubby, little finger, but Tim knew the truth…this was no ordinary baby. He held meetings! He could talk! And he was on a top-secret mission to stop Puppy Co. from coming out with the cutest puppy of all time and causing Baby Corp to go out of business!

But the Boss Baby needs Tim’s help. And if the Boss Baby doesn’t succeed, he’ll be fired from Baby Corp and these two rival siblings will be forced to be brothers forever. Can Tim make a deal with the Boss Baby, stop Puppy Co., and get the Boss Baby out of his life for good? (And will the Boss Baby finally get the corner office with the private potty he deserves?) Find out in this retelling of the new movie!

I requested this book because my 2 and 4 year old were obsessed with the movie. The only books available for Boss Baby were board books and this. I was worried they would lose interest in it because there were only pictures in the middle. I was surprised that we got through the book (took us a week) and they loved it! We did see the movie before we read the book so that helped. I think it is a really cute story and my kids loved it. The junior novelization had all the parts they loved and didn't skip past some parts like other books based off of movies do. I would recommend it to anyone who liked the movie.

I watched this movie in August when it came out and I bought the book also (same as despicable me 3 junior novel). I like this story very much, from the beginning till the end, the plot is arranged very precisely and beautifully. The characters suit the book very well. I recommend this book to children as this book teaches us about friendship and how friends and family are important in our life.

Needed something light after Babel and Nicole had this on a pile to give away. Went from the horrors of colonialism to the horrors of capitalism.

So apparently this was a novel which became a movie which then became an adapted novel. Why? Who knows? That is the way things work apparently - anyway a pretty dopey story which passes as young people's entertainment in screen these days anyway - very average.

I liked the story, it was very funny. The movie is releasing on March 31 2017, cannot wait to watch it in 3D.
