Review:My kids love reading this book. The story is pretty true to the movie, as opposed to other versions that leave a lot out. Both of my kids (4 and 7) love this version. In addition to the story being consistent with the movie, the illustrations are wonderful! I would totally recommend this version of the Frozen book to anyone whose kids want to relive the movie in a book. Read more

Review:"The Velvet Room" paints a realistic portrait of migrant workers during the Depression, with some elements of suspense thrown in. The story is told through the eyes of Robin, a young teenager whose displaced, impoverished family has been travelling from place to place, doing whatever seasonal work they can get just to survive. As the story begins, Robin's father, who by now is in fragile health, has taken a job on the estate of the wealthy McCurdys. The job might be permanent if her father's ... Read more

Review:Excellent book. My toddler son loves all of the Pout-Pout fish paperback books. I also really like reading them to him because they are written in a sing-songy way that makes it fun and easy to read over and over and over and over and over ... if you have a toddler you know what I'm talking about.

Review:What a great book! My family personalized it for my sister’s birthday by writing encouraging notes on each page. A beautifully illustrated reminder of just how lucky the world is to have you in it! :) Read more

Review:Martin has broken out of genre fiction with a real winner of a book, one that can be enjoyed by fiction lovers of any age. This would be a great gift for an 11- or 12-year old girl, but I've recommended it to many adults, too.

I hope this book also serves the higher purposes of opening the eyes of YA readers to the human nature of people who are different from the norm. If children haven't had a chance to interact with different people in school, this book will serve to make anyone more... Read more

Review:Todd Parr makes feelings accessible and understandable to youngsters, and isn't that the perfect time to learn and embrace ALL the feelings we humans experience? Todd makes them normal and fun at the same time. Read more

Review:This book teaches us princesses can wear pants. They can be princesses and scientists, teachers, business owners and even manage a KINGDOM all while dressing comfortably and wearing PANTS. Illustrations and storyline are well done. Story has beginning, middle and end. Read more

Review:Agree with an earlier reviewer about the age range for this book. I bought it for my 7 yo nephew (I had bought the day the crayons quit/came home books for him earlier and he loves those two books) but this one was very basic. Great for a two year old, but I think the story is a bit too simple for older kids. Beautifully illustrated as all Oliver Jeffers books are, but this one was boring... Read more

Review:Having previously purchased "I Want My Hat Back", I purchased this for my daughter for Christmas. This book is a more traditional fairy tale then "I Want My Hat Back". The story is a sweet one, with a nice message about generosity. The illustrations are wonderfully done, the yarn is very striking against the background. Read more
