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 […]

My first non-Bingo review with a Batty good time read

Amara and the Bats by Emma Reynolds

by Leave a Comment

Amara and the Bats by Emma Reynolds has gotten several reviews, promotions and been put in a newsletter for independent stores across the country. Now, I am not one to usually love a book that gets so much hype and praise. And I am also not one who usually agrees with my fellow independent bookstore staff members in my bookstore, let alone across the nation.

I am going to say, “Just read any of the First Second Science Comics. I don’t need to tell you about them, just do it! They are great. And not just me recommends them, but every kid I have talked to/hear about reading them agrees.” But I do have to write 250 words about Science Comics: Bats: Learning to Fly by Falynn Koch. So, here it goes! When I read nonfiction, especially something science based, my first thought is, “How much have things changed since […]

Proudly Perfectly Peculiar

The Peculiar Possum by Tracey Hecht

by Leave a Comment

The Peculiar Possum is one of a series. I do not know which number but know that there are several in the older easy reader level (I would say ages high first up to medium second grade), as well as a few novels for (according to Amazon aged 7 to 12. But not having read them, I am unsure if this is correct. I find their ages tend to be a bit on the young side, to be honest). The premise of this one is […]
