2 stars It has been a while since I watched the Dinotrux show on Netflix, but from what I remember this is basically a summary of what happened in the first episode when all of our favorite dinotrux meet and learn to work together. Good story overall. I do think it was kind of wordy…

4 stars This was actually a good story. I work with children and read a lot of picture books based on movie/tv characters. I am actually disappointed by a lot of them because they seem to lean too much on the celebrity of the characters and therefore, don’t tell a good story. This one however…

5 stars   I don’t even know exactly what it is that makes me love Giant Days so much. I usually don’t like realistic fiction. I’m much more of a fantasy/sci-fi/dystopian kind of person. I love Rat Queens and Saga, Y: The Last Man and Bitch Planet. But this series is just so perfect. It’s…

4 stars I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This is a beautiful book. It is set up as Belle’s journey and goes through the events of the newest live-action movie. The narration is pretty simple, but I loved the various sketches, pictures, letters, and flaps included. Great idea…

5 stars I absolutely loved this book. Fantastic story and amazing writing. I listened to the audiobook, which was narrated by David Tennant, another plus. Even if you don’t know who that is, you should probably listen to this book because he is by far the best audiobook reader I have ever had the privilege…

2 stars I will start by saying this is a very pretty book. I liked the cover and the various illustrations throughout. Very hygge. The colors and font used were very comforting. However, what I think my dislike of this book all boils down to is that it didn’t need to be a book. The…

3 stars I listened to the audiobook of this book (which I highly recommend as it is narrated by the author and who doesn’t love Nick Offerman’s voice?) and enjoyed it. I liked Offerman’s idea of creating a list of inspirational Americans who exhibited gumption and did great things. The list of people included in…

2 stars Okay book. I liked the premise of teaching kids about various fruits and vegetables using a fun format, but the execution was a bit off in my opinion. For one thing, I’m always a little squeamish about children’s books with food for characters. As soon as you put a cute face on something,…

4 stars Humorous story about a mysterious odor plaguing a little boy. A very funny and entertaining book. I enjoyed the detailed illustrations and the hilarious plot. Very engaging as the reader follows Elliot on his journey to figure out what it is that smells so bad.   Goodreads

3 stars A cute book about a sasquatch and a lumberjack who meet and become friends. The book goes through each season and various activities related to that season (hike, swim, slide, pick apples). There is one word on each spread that sums up the picture, so the text is very, very simple. However, the…
