Doctor Who:  The Runaway Tardis by Kim Smith

July 9, 2020 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

cbr12bingo I wish I told someone today I am a “baby geek.” I can tell you the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek. I know Tom Baker is the “Doctor with the Scarf” and knew I would laugh alone when someone said I was a Shield Agent due to my required mask being a face shield, and them not getting the connection. And the Pop Classics book series (popular culture such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Back to the Future, and X-Files in a […]

I admit it, I hate Baby Shark. That nonsense makes me wonder about the future of American children. Therefore, I only picked up this easy reader, Baby Shark: Baby Shark and the Balloons, out of a morbid curiosity to see how they could write a story about “doo-doo-doo”. However, I learned that this book is a little funny and mostly well done. Pinkfong has created just a simple story about Baby Shark being bored as they cannot locate their friends. But of course, there is […]
