Elbow Grease | John Cena

This #PictureBook has a great message—never give up and anyone can succeed, no matter size or strength. Cena adds humor to the speech bubbles of the various trucks. I was actually surprised by how much I liked this one. #BBRC #LetterE

BethM Our library only has one of these in the middle of the series :- 5mo
Librarybelle @BethM I didn‘t realize it was a series! 5mo
LibrarianRyan I liked these books. I could see John Cena reading them to kids. These are so much better then Dale Earnhart Jr.s books. 5mo

#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView
1. I have read books by celebrities so why not read what they recommend. Of course it depends on the celebrity. Here's something I love https://youtu.be/vfGhXTpcaRw
2. My students, their parents, my friends and family, goodreads, litsy - I follow authors on Instagram and Twitter. My Facebook feed is also full of bookish interests.
I have completely lost track of what day it is #teacherlife #summerbreak

TheSpineView Thanks for playing! 👍📖📚 3y
ShelleyBooksie Loved the link. John Cena is great. 3y
mandarchy @ShelleyBooksie He's so great. I wish the Tonight Show did more What Ya Readin'? segments. I'm the odd duck that likes to see celebrities talk about what they are reading. There are so many people who don't read who might start with some inspiration. 3y

bthegood love your comment about losing track of what day it is - summer throws me for a loop - definitely a #teacherlife - 😂 (edited) 3y
KrisNelson I tend to shy away from celebrity children‘s books, but if the kids love them, I‘ll get them. 3y
KrisNelson I buy a lot of my books that Accelerated Reader, that puts its new tests out everyThursday. 3y
mandarchy @KrisNelson I guess I've could argue that Accelerated Reader is a celebrity... 3y

My teenage daughter has been trying to convince me to read this for ages. I finally picked it up recently and I couldn't put it down.

A girl with an unnamed identity, referred to as Jane Doe is in a secret base and who hasn't spoken a word for 2 and a half years.

I found this story had great pacing and enough intrigue for me to not want to put this book down. ⬇️

LazyOwl Part of the reason I enjoyed, was that I went into the story blind not knowing anything about the story. So I won't say much further except to say that it was simply but well written with an interesting female protagonist with a secret past. 4y
LazyOwl This was my April #DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks and also on this month's #BookSpinBingo 4y
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 4y

I was not expecting much out of wrestling powerhouse John Cena, but I have been greatly surprised by how much I like this book. And I can see why more are on the way. Elbo Grease is a truck with gumption. Yeah he plugs in, and yeah he is different, but never give up, and never quit.

John Cena wrote a picture book, so I put it on hold without knowing anything about it except that. Turns out it is a fun story about grit and gumption and demolition derbies, so my 6-year old was all about that. Fun, bright illustrations.

Rome, Lex and Mercy are girls from Cottonwood and they were either born with wonderful gifts or horrible curses depending on who you‘re talking to. The loyalty these girls show each other is beautiful. They are so tight but at the same time, they‘re so far away, each of them holding on to secrets so big they can‘t tell even each other. #magic
