Silly Jokes for Silly Kids. Children's joke book age 5-12

Review:Bought this for my 10-year-old granddaughter. She lives several states away from me so I wasn't able to review the book myself but she did read me a few jokes (which were funny!). She enjoyed her book but I think she enjoyed her "Silly Riddles for Silly Kids" more. Read more

I Scream for Ice Cream (I Can Read Level 1) - Splat the Cat
I Scream for Ice Cream (I Can Read Level 1) - Splat the Cat

Review:Everyone is excited for the field trip to the ice cream factory. But when the first part of the tour is super boring, Splat accidentally causes a huge mess and everyone must pitch in to help clean up.

Splat the Cat readers can be a bit zany because they are a teensy bit more worried about introducing a certain phonics concept than the plot. This one is quite crazy but still manages to have a plot that makes sense. The phonics emphasis is on the long e sound produced by different vowel ble... Read more

Shipwrecked (Junie B. Jones - No. 23) - Junie B.

Review:It would be better if Barbara Parks stays away from History and other factual areas. Better if the books are kept primarily to day to day activities and emotions/ feelings thereof. These are Barbara Parks' strengths. When looking for starter chapter books I mistakenly bought the whole collection for my daughter. The repeated use of spelling and grammar errors was too much for me but my daugther seems to like these books than the other much better ones I bought (magic tree house). Anyway when I r...

First Grader (at Last!) (Junie B. Jones - Junie B.
First Grader (at Last!) (Junie B. Jones - Junie B.

Review:I agree with the other people writing these reviews. Junie B has grown up too fast and her attitude has changed. I wish that Park had written a summer story in between "Graduation Girl" and the first grader one. That way, it would give a bigger explanation why she has grown up a little bit. But Park made her spring up too fast for only being a first grader. I think it's cute how on the cover that her "B" is turned to the side to look like a pair of funny purple glasses. I'm 11 and have enjoyed t... Read more

Boss of Lunch (Junie B. Jones - No. 19) - Junie B.

Review:This book was interesting. At the beginning she talked all about her lunch box, and she bragged about it too. I liked this book because it was funny. The words were not to hard for me to read.

I think lots of first graders should read this book. Read more

Scholastic Reader Level 1: Silly Milly
Scholastic Reader Level 1: Silly Milly

Review:I bought this through my grandson's pre-school to add variety to my library at home. The story line may be a little difficult for young ones to understand Milly's obsession with certain words, but once read, they may catch on. I just wasn't impressed with the storyline (if you can find one). The book is just silly in my opinion. It reads like the Dr. Suess books of which were never a favorite of mine either, and I am unsure whether this one will be a choice for my grandson to want to read. ... Read more
