I received this book from a Goodread Giveaway contest. The story and illustrations are cute but leave more questions than anything. Bryan is the big blue guy on the cover. His entire family, parents and siblings, are all much smaller than Bryan and kind of look like lego people although Bryan does not. That huge difference is never explained. Bryan gives a try to each family member's special talent, but Bryan is not good at those talents. Then without further trials at a variety of activities, Bryan's talent is found. That is not very realistic and left the story kind of flat. The lesson of the book should have been to keep trying because you will eventually find your talent, if not talents, because most people are good at more than one talent.
