Daily Dish
It’s not the color of the belt that matters…
If I were talking about fashion, then the title of this review would probably get me in a lot of trouble, but since I’m talking about the martial art of kung fu, I think I’m safe. Immedium has created yet another children’s book with a story and graphics sure to entertain readers of all ages.
In Julie Black Belt: The Kung Fu Chronicles the story’s heroine, Julie, inspired by both her parents and the movie actress Brandy Wu, enrolls in a kung fu class. Julie is sure achieving a black belt will be easy but soon becomes discouraged when she learns it’s definitely not as easy as she thought. What happens next is the best part of the story, so you’re going to have visit the Immedium website and pick up a copy for yourself. I’m not about to spoil an ending!
But before wrapping up this review I will share with you my favorite line from Julie Black Belt . It’s definitely a keeper, especially if you have a little one enrolled in a martial arts class: “A black belt is just a white belt that doesn’t quit.”
