Maddy and Grace always look forward to spending a week in Maddy's grandma Mei's house in summer as they've been doing for the past three years. Every year they get to go fishing, swimming, and have fun on the beach, and this year is no different. Maddy and Grace decide to go on a fishing trip and paddle out to the middle of the water being careful not to wander too far from shore for fear that they will get lost. After getting caught up with fishing and staying out in the water a little too long, they get engulfed in a thick layer of fog!

Summary: “Maddy and Grace Fight the Fog” is a thirty-page picture book that starts out as a simple fishing trip and turns into a scary adventure. Grandma Mei waves farewell to Maddy and Grace as they take the rowboat out on the ocean, donning life jackets, worms, and rods. The fog surrounds Maddy and Grace and the fight for survival is on as they can not see and paddle further away from shore. Opinion: “Maddy and Grace Fight the Fog” is a creative new way to tell the familiar old fairy/folk story of prevailing forces against Maddy and Grace, in a modern setting. The setting of the story is done well with simple pictures and words to describe the scenes perfectly. Indeed, Maddy and Grace, like all heroes in a fairy/folk tale survived and learned a lesson that it is best to always have an adult with you and always be prepared for your adventure. Emotions range from joy to being petrified on their little adventure. The events and circumstances are unrealistic but spin a good story and a lesson learned to prepared. The illustrations capture emotion, joy, fear, frustration, and relief on the faces of the two main characters In the end Maddy and Grace retell the mistakes they made on their adventure. I would recommend “Maddy and Grace Fight the Fog” and suggest an adult explanation is provided about the events and the outcome of the story.
