3 stars Good story based on the Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks show. This is a Level Two book with longer sentences and more difficult vocabulary. It’s an interesting book, a little choppy at times in its attempt to summarize an entire episode into a manageable picture book, but overall entertaining. The only thing I really…

3 stars I saw this book at the library and was instantly pulled in by the interesting cover and intriguing title. This was an entertaining book. I am not creative enough to write an “I hate…” review so I’m just going with the standard style. This is a huge book that is actually a pretty…

4 stars A fascinating read with a very unique perspective. I really liked that Pollan looked at evolution from the plant’s perspective. It was so simple, yet so novel and interesting. I especially enjoyed the chapters on apples and potatoes. There is a lot of information packed into this book, from historical events such as…

As a contributor to this collection, I feel it would be unfair for me to give it a star rating, but I do want to share some of my thoughts on some of the pieces and the anthology as a whole. I love the idea of a collection of small things, short fiction and poems…

3 stars A nice introduction to The Last Jedi story. This basically goes through the major characters and the setup of the movie. This is a Level 2 reader, for those beginning to read. It is setup like as a chapter book with varying chapter lengths. There are pictures on each page which help break…

4 stars Great Batgirl adventure. I liked the setup of the story. In this one, Batgirl retraces her steps to find a present that she lost while she was fighting crime. The book is comprised of flashbacks and the main story set in the present tense. The flashbacks are presented in grayscale, making it easy…

3 stars Overall, this was an interesting book. As others have said, it is very whimsical and fantastical in its events, characters, and descriptions. Similar in style to The Wizard of Oz series and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, this is the story of a little girl wondering around a strange fairy land and the adventures she has there….

3 stars A very clever alphabet book. As with many alphabet book, this one dedicates one page spread to each letter. The impressive thing is that it also creates a sentences using only words that start with that letter. This is even more remarkable later in the alphabet, especially for x, y, and z. I’ll…

3 stars Cute book about getting ready to sleep. As with the other books in the series, I really enjoyed the illustrations. Loved the parallels between Supergirl and the main character. I’ll admit, I enjoyed Be a Star, Wonder Woman! and Bedtime for Batman a little more than this one, but this was still a fun read. I feel…

4 stars A humorous and adorable tale about a little witch who does not get along with her baby sister. I feel like this is such a relatable story, wanting your baby sister/brother to disappear. I personally don’t have siblings, but I have read enough books and seen enough movies to know that at some…
