3 stars A nice book that introduces the new students of Twilight Sparkle’s School of Friendship. This is a Passport to Reading level 1 book, which utilizes short sentences and simple stories for beginning readers. While this book is not a plot-based story, it serves as a nice introduction to some of the new characters…

3 stars Fun Lego adventures featuring the Justice League. This book is set up as an illustrated chapter book, perfect for readers who are ready to bridge the gap between picture books and chapter books. The book contains three separate stories. Full of puns and silly scenarios, the stories are very entertaining. Nice illustrations complete…

3 stars Overall, this book was good. The idea of a mysterious clock ticking away in the walls of a magical house is absolutely fascinating. And I loved all of the descriptions of magic and strangeness. I could definitely see this book being kind of creepy when it was written in the 70s. For today’s…

4 stars Fantastic non-fiction read for young readers. This is a Level 3 book for those ready to read on their own. There is a lot of text on each page along with pictures that help break up the text. This is a great book. I loved the focus on women in science. The book…

3 stars Funny monster counting book. Nice illustrations that are simple yet entertaining. Snot and farts make fun additions to the monster pack. But if you’re easily offended by those things, look elsewhere. Good fit for kids who like slightly gross things. I did like the human boy’s character. I love the way he thought…

4 stars A wonderful book about a lion who is not afraid to be himself. I love the message of the book. It is a simple story but a beautiful one. I wasn’t as into the illustrations in this book as the style used in Max the Brave, but they were still entertaining and the story…

3 stars I picked this up from the library, because I figured why not? Overall, this was a good book. It’s filled with a lot of advise about spirituality and changing your outlook on life. I didn’t really see anything ground breaking in it though. It’s a lot of stuff that has been said over…

5 stars Loved this book. I am a huge fan of Miranda and think he is an incredibly inspiring and talented individual. I knew a lot of this information already, having read Hamilton: The Revolution, but it was very interesting to see the story simplified in a way that children could more easily understand. This is…

3 stars Very fun and silly book about a little girl who is actually a penguin. I really liked the writing style. It is very simplistic and silly. It really feels like it is coming from the perspective of the little girl. I also liked the gender role non-conformity represented in the book. The girl…

3 stars Cute little counting adventure that follows the same set-up as Ten Pigs: An Epic Bath Adventure. Nice illustrations. The disgustingly humorous sandwich was a nice touch. Nice simple rhyming and counting throughout the story. A silly book that is very fun. Great ending.   Goodreads
