Leonardo, the Terrible Monster
Leonardo, the Terrible Monster

Review:I bought this book because my grandson had an infatuation with monsters for awhile. We both enjoy the story and the artwork. He's moved on from monsters now, but we still enjoy reading this book. Not terribly long, so good for a bedtime book. Read more

Little Snowman (Disney Frozen) (Step into Reading)
Little Snowman (Disney Frozen) (Step into Reading)

Review:I sometimes think that the reading level systems are not equal from publisher to publisher. This book says Preschool -Kindergarten. If your child is an advanced early reader this book may be appropriate. My child is 5 and knows blends and phonograms, but still needs help with this book.

Snowman's Story
Snowman's Story

Review:Beautifully illustrated using sweet characters children will readily identify with. This picture book lends itself to sharing by children of different ages. It is difficult to find a book that older siblings can "read" to the youngest yet complex enough for the older child to enjoy again and again. I'll also be purchasing this in hardcover to add to our holiday shelf. Read more

The Berenstain Bears Inside Outside Upside Down
The Berenstain Bears Inside Outside Upside Down

I shouldn't have to sort through 100 reviews to realized they're not what they appear to be. We bought 4, paying almost $20 plus shipping, but only got $9 back after paying return shipping costs. Biggest rip-off ever! If I had wanted books to put in my diaper bag- these would have been great. But as it is, I jus... Read more

What If Everybody Did That?
What If Everybody Did That?

Review:Love this story! I think children can relate to all the everyday scenarios. Great pictures. I love that the children need to make their own conclusions by interpreting the picture accompanying each situation. A wonderful book to start discussions on being responsible without being preachy. Love it! Read more
