I Like You: An Encouraging Bedtime Book (Positive Affirmations for Kids) by Kate Allen

by Leave a Comment

I like Kate Allen of TheLatestKate fame. Their books, journals, and daily affirmations are just what one needs every so often. Sometimes they can be a bit sugary, but they are always what they are: One person who has been there hoping to help you with words that could shine a little light on the situation. And with I Like You: An Encouraging Bedtime Book (Positive Affirmations for Kids) kids can get in on the action. Everything is sweet and simple. Colors are bright and there […]

I liked the Porcupine picture

Moonlight Prance by Serena Gingold Allen

by Leave a Comment

The publisher description of Moonlight Prance says it best: Foxes, hedgehogs, and other nocturnal animals come out to dance and play at night, in this rhyming bedtime story with tabs to pull and push. I had been wondering about the tab part of the book as I read it via online and there were these spots in Serena Gingold Allen’s story I was thinking, “What in Blue-Blazes-Sam-Hill is that????”  As the flap was not shown, so there was a blank space or something odd looking […]

What does Emi have I don’t? Courage!

Emi Isn’t Scared of Monsters by Alina Tysoe

by Leave a Comment

If you have followed What’s Up Beanie on Instagram or WebToons you know what a loveable stinker Alina Tysoe’s characters can be. In Emi Isn’t Scared of Monsters we have her signature style come alive when a young girl gets ready for bed. Flashlight? Check! Her dog Cookie? Check! Helmet? Check! Wait a minute, a helmet? Yes! Emi needs a helmet as she is getting ready to not sleep but keep an eye out for monsters!  Baiting her trap, she and Cookie prepare for Monster […]

Goodnight, sleep tight, don’t let the ghosts….

Skeletina and the In-Between World by Susie Jaramillo

by Leave a Comment

Skeletina likes living in the In-Between world where she is the queen of her castle and can play with her friends who live there. And her favorite friends are the ones who are still living. You see, the living can enter this other realm in their sleep. And Skeletina has taken it upon herself to help those who come over. She tries and capture the critters who help create nightmares. She talks and listens. She learns and plays. It is a happily ever after. And […]

I like the illustrations

The Midnight Club by Shane Goth

by Leave a Comment

The Midnight Club is a lovely book. For someone other than me. The concept of Shane Goth’s picture book is cute, but something did not click for me. This is a story of two sisters and the mischief they get in at midnight while they sneak around the house. They try on clothes of their mother, eat their fathers’ jellybeans, play with the cat, and just wander about the house without a care (or parent) in the world. They mention the two walk past their […]

Called a luminous escapade, I call it one very interesting book

In the Meadow of Fantasies by Hadi Mohammadi

by Leave a Comment

In the Meadow of Fantasies looks like it might be a funny book at first glance. It seems like it will have a humorous element due to the cover horse with a boat on its rump. However, while there are times when humor comes into play, this book is far from humorous. The seriousness of imagination is the focus of the book. A young girl (you will realize is in a wheelchair by looking at the artistic illustrations of Nooshin Safakhoo) uses her horse mobile […]
