5.0 out of 5 stars Goofy Book, Good Lessons
Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2020

This is a silly, somewhat gross book that manages to teach a few lessons in a fun and funny way that kids, especially boys of a certain age, tend to like. The main character Goober loves to eat his boogers. His older brother, Sludge, warns him that if you eat too many, you can turn green. Sure enough, that happens to Goober. His doctor diagnoses him with booger-itis, and the only cure is eating three particular green vegetables: spinach, asparagus, and okra--all vegetables, of course, that Goober doesn't like. But he doesn't want to stay green, so he knuckles down and eats them. The next day at school, he has to explain why he's green. So he does, with absolutely no embarrassment, and describes the cure. Each day as he eats the three foods, he gets less and less green. At school, he is surprised when suddenly they serve spinach at the school cafeteria. The lunch lady was asked to do this to help support Goober. The other kids also start trying new and different foods and let Goober know some of the new foods they now like, including—ewwwww—anchovies! The book is one that could be read to a younger child or read by an early reader from 7 to 9 years of age. It doesn't have all the illustrations of a regular picture book. Rather, it has one every couple of pages or so. The illustrations are goofy and are right in line with the story. The story actually has some good lessons about not eating your boogers, eating healthy foods, and trying new foods. While my nephews are all older now, I could definitely see them enjoying this book.

In the words of my 6 yr old when asked what he liked about the book, "he ate spinach and tried new foods that he never tried before".

5.0 out of 5 stars EAT YOUR GREEN VEGGIES – THEY WILL KEEP YOU HEALTHY AND HELP CURE MANY THINGS.
Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2018
I received a MOBI.file of this book from the author through a giveaway she had on LibraryThing and the following is my honest opinion.

If you’ve ever wondered why young girls don’t like boys, you don’t have to look any further than Goober McGee. You see, while from outward appearances he might seem like a nice boy, the truth is that besides having “cooties” like all other boys, Goober has a truly disgusting habit; he eats his boogers. EEK!!!

But despite not listening to his older brother Sludge’s warnings, who use to have the same habit, Goober relishes in eating them. His brother warned him that he’ll turn green if he doesn’t stop. Goober has a rude awakening one morning when he awakes up, he’s turned green like the Hulk [without the muscles], and he’s becomes more frighten than seeing a ghost, and finally realizes his brother has been telling him the truth.

When his mother takes him to the doctor, he immediately knows what’s wrong with Goober. He tells him he’s suffering from a case of Boogeritis and that he’s has to eat a lot of dark, leafy green vegetables, like spinach, asparagus and okra, before he can get better. These are the same vegetables which Goober felt were disgusting and never ate them despite his mother telling him how healthy they are. Now, with no other alternative, he begins to eat them, and has he does, he begins to get his normal skin color back. Once back to being totally normal looking with no more green skin-coloring, at school everyone he’s becomes an example for his classmates to follow, and at home his taste for different food begins to expand. He realizes his mother had always correct about the healthy aspects of eating different foods, especially his veggies; but more importantly, this frightful experience has finally stopped him from eating his boogers. The question now is, will girls begin to like him?

The number of illustrations the book contains were prefect to give its young reader a good visualization of what’s happening in the story. As for the story itself, it definitely communicates the lesson[s] it had been designed to communicate in a delightful manner, which is why I’ve given Ms. Lowrance the 5 STARS she’s gotten from me.

Boogers is a humorous book that addresses a child's fascination with eating their boogers. The kids got a few chuckles, learned eating alternatives and really enjoyed the illustrations.
