Children's Books
Review:What a great way to start a series! Nic is a very easy character to like, and his adventures were non stop. I couldn't put the book down, it flowed perfectly. I especially loved Caela :-) The way the other used Roman history in her story was very well done. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series. Read more
Review:Enjoyable read, fun and interesting, Not overbearing or too technical to enjoy. Neil is a great writer and this is essentially a collection of essays from his published work in magazines. A wide collection of interesting topics, Read more
Review:We have the whole series of these books. Simplistic for a toddler, this, naptime, feet not for kicking, tails not for pulling, biting are all excellent and helpful. All books have helpful types for parents and caregivers/babysitters. Read more
Review:All of her books were outstanding, but it was so sad this trilogy ended. I have to admit I wish there was a way alina could have helped the darkling. Her characters have so much depth I found it really hard to hate the darkling even though you understood he couldn't end up on top. I'm going to reread all of them. Read more
Review:I like the stories. However these are VERY short books. The stories end at the 64% mark on my Kindle. The last third is filled with teasers and acknowledgements. A little longer than short stories, I think they should be priced much cheaper. Read more
Review:Im 19 right now... But I remember my mother reading this story to me and my older sister ever since I was about 4 years old. We had the story up until a couple years ago. Then my little brother got a hold of it and tore it up. So now I am buying a new one. This story is so funny. I recommend this to all children and parents. Read more
Review:I bought this book for my three-year-old who was having some trouble with bullying. This book's message is that if you have unshakable self confidence, you're not going to be able to be conquered by the bullies of the world. It's a little questionable in that respect, but the story and the illustrations are so endearing that I love it anyway. Ideally, I think we all hope that by building our children's confidence, we'll insulate them from at least some of the "slings and arrows" of this world... Read more
Review:The story seems to go from event to event to event, (not really the same as the stories you have seen repeatedly in the movies) with limited connectedness between them. I wanted to know the whole story, as I enjoy the Arthur stories in every version I have seen, but much prefer the movie rewrites over the book, which is completely off for me. Read more
Review:I read My Side of the Mountain. This kid named Sam runs away from his home in New York because of the crowd. He looks and finds this stump and starts living in it. Then he finds this baby falcon and trains it to catch food and would fish. Sam wants to prove everyone wrong and remain out in the woods.
I liked the book. It is awesome. I would give it 4 stars because the ending was kind of boring. Read more
Review:The number and quality of stories in this book is excellent, and the book itself is of such quality that it can be passed down from generation to generation. If one can find a copy for the bargain price I did, so much the better. Read more
