Here Comes Smiley: Ready for Action (Smiley's Fun Adventures)
by Tom Ball (Author), Rich Ball (Author), Jackie Stein (Illustrator) Here Comes Smiley: Ready for Action by Tom Ball and Rich Ball, with illustrations by Jackie Stein, is a joyful and imaginative adventure that celebrates creativity, kindness, and quick thinking. The story begins when young Ernie visits his Grampa Harvey’s art studio and unknowingly brings a cheerful yellow face to life with a magical pen. That drawing, which Ernie names Smiley, bounces off the sketchpad and into the real world, where he immediately sets out to explore—and help others along the way. Smiley’s journey is full of heartwarming moments. Whether he’s cheering up a lonely dog, helping an unsuspecting family cross the street safely, acting as a spare tire so a family can make it to the beach, or rescuing a struggling swimmer at the pool, Smiley proves time and again that even the smallest actions can make a big difference. Children will love watching him roll through each scene with enthusiasm and selflessness, and the illustrations bring every moment to life with bright, energetic charm. This book is perfect for young readers who enjoy stories filled with wonder, gentle humor, and a strong moral compass. The magical element of the sketchpad and the message about using creativity for good add an extra layer of meaning to the fun. Here Comes Smiley: Ready for Action is not only entertaining—it’s inspiring. It encourages children to use their imaginations and reminds them of the joy that comes from helping others. A delightful read from start to finish, this story leaves readers smiling and eager for Smiley’s next adventure. Purchase the book on Amazon
