The Rootlets: Super Rootabilities {Book Review}

The Rootlets: Super Rootabilities {Book Review}

Do your kids love super heroes? My grandkids do! And sometimes, letting them watch the different shows, bothers me because of the violence. Sure, it’s a cartoon but still, they are absorbing it all and even copying what they see and hear! But The Rootlets by Vicki Marquez give our kids another group of heroes to learn from!

The Rootlets are four fun-loving and adventurous kids, with veggie hair and healthy habits – whose lives, up until now, were undoubtedly ordinary.

In their very first adventure, Brocc, Carrotina, Cornelius and Kaley overhear shocking news that’s most definitely NOT ordinary, and that’s sure to change life as they know it…forever! Could it be that the Rootlets are in fact superheroes with real super powers called Rootabilities? Using clues from an old legend book, The Rootlets get to work, determined to solve the biggest mystery of their lives.

Be transported to the visually magnificent and magical plant-based world of Planet Planted – where The Rootlets begin their journey to save their world from potential evil that they never knew existed.

First of all, this great group of kids have vegetables for hair! Which goes along perfectly with their healthy habits that they show through the story. I mean they live in a place called VeggieVille on the planet Planted. 

I love the fact that I can read this with my grandkids who all have their favorite characters. And they have started making up their own stories about this awesome group.

Plus this book is filled with vibrant and kid-friendly illustrations that the kids talk about and notice something new every time we read through it.

In this particular book, the kids are discovering their abilities and have to learn how to use them before time runs out! And the bad guy’s name is Mr. Fungo Fungi, how “fun” is that!? The kids are chasing each other, using their new powers and taking turns being Mr. Fungi.

I’d definitely recommend this book to any parent with young kids, especially those learning to make healthier choices while loving super heroes!
