Ivy & Bean's Secret Treasure Box (Books 1-3)

Review:It states that these books are for five and up what five year do you know can read a chapter book on their own. I do like the books to read to her but I was looking for something to get her started with reading. Read more

To All the Boys I've Loved Before

Review:I received this book yesterday, so I have not had time to start reading it. But I have heard wonderful things about this book. The package came very quickly which was great because I go on vacation soon and wanted this book, especially in paperback. I can not wait to start reading this book along with my others books for my summer reading list. Read more

Scythe (Arc of a Scythe)
Scythe (Arc of a Scythe)

Review:Scythe is my first Neal Shusterman book AND one of the best books I’ve read this year. Society lives in a utopia. We’ve defeated death, poverty, hunger, you name it. Do people turn to a Star Trek-type society and explore space and do good things? Nope, they “turn the corner” when they get tired of looking old, having surgery to bring them back to a younger face and body. They stop doing, stop trying to achieve; it’s a stagnant society that doesn’t die. That’s where the Scythes come in.

A No-Stress, No-Rules Journal - Mother & Daughter

Review:Perfect level for my 10-year old daughter. We've picked our "secret" drop-off location and enjoy reading each others' entries. Neither of us typically write on a daily, or even weekly, basis, but this format is easy and enjoyable. Love it! Read more

If You Give a Mouse a Cookie
If You Give a Mouse a Cookie

Review:This was one of my favorite books as a kid. We recently bought this for our friends who have a 2 1/2 year old and are expecting a new baby. The little girl loves it and so do Mom and Dad. The book is long enough to keep the interest of the child, yet short enough that Mom and Dad can read it daily if the little girl wants. We also have a copy for our little girl. Great book for all kiddos. Read more

Review:"From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankwiler" by E.L. Konisburg is an excellent book.It is sort of like a great ig mystery. It is about a young girl named Claudia, who is aroud 11 or 12 years old, and her younger brother Jamie, who is around 9 or so years old. Well to make a long wonderful, nice story short, the two kds run away from home to the Metropolitian Museum of Art, with only about $25.00.

Everyone Poops (Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition)

Review:Cute book, had one for my kids now grown and moved away. One of them requested to 'borrow' it for a relative's nephew having some issues with training. But after looking through it again, I decided I want to keep it (someday we should have grand kids, yes?), so ordered a new one. It was well received by the little one (boy) it was purchased for.
