Review:“Lots of Knock-Knock Jokes for Kids” was sent to me by Zonderkidz – a division of Zondervan Publishing – free of charge, in exchange for my honest opinion and review of it.
“Lots of Knock-Knock Jokes for Kids” was written by Whee Winn. It is filled with hundreds of cute knock-knock jokes and even some bonus riddles. Kids love to tell jokes like these, and therefore, I would recommend this book for little ones…I’m thinking my grandson (7 years old) will love it. Read more
Review:this book is very educational and helpful in knowing what your second grader will be learning this year. I feel like I now can confidently help my child with any homework she will bring home and perhaps answer questions she may have about what she is learning. Read more

While not a bad book by any means, it is also not a great book as it was really hard to finish this book. Had I bought it as a casual read, I might not have made it the whole way, but since it was required, it wasn't half bad, I have had to read a lot wors... Read more
Review:If you're into anecdotes and numerous stories as entertainment, great. Unfortunately, very little of his examples illuminated how one goes about discovering talents and passion in work. I find that his sequel fell short of that goal as well. Read more
Review:Poor quality, printed newsprint paper.
A big portion of the book is a mini-autobiography in which she talks about how she acquired her children. It's the same story she tells over and over and over again, in her other book and on her blog and in every single interview I've read. It does use up a lot of pages though.

Review:The bearnstein bears offer more in manner /behaviour matters like this topic. Didn't like this book much, I can handle it on many issues are just giving unrealistic options, I felt it's target was making kids just repeat reading " I can handle it" more than how! Read more
