Table of ContentsReviewsPraise for Balloon Toons: <br> Puts the comics medium to good use: tracking the visual elements of the story will help emerging readers decode the text with ease. The full-color palette is simple, and the large panels will make access even easier for inexperienced comics readers. -- Booklist <br><br> [Balloon Toons offers] a series of simple stories arranged in panels that combine pictures and words. Introducing comic books to reluctant readers has been a positive way to create excitement about reading. -- San Francisco Book Review Author InformationA graduate of the School of Visual Arts, Ms. Marts went on to sojourns at MTV animation, Marvel Comics, and Russ Berie. The idea for this story came when Ms. Marts and her husband signed up a Twitter account for their beloved puggle, Baxter, and found that they tweeted more on his behalf than on their own! Baxter and several of her relative's dogs make appearances in this story. Most of Ms. Marts's tweets are about food and her dog. The author lives in Lake Hopatcong, NJ.
