4 stars This is an amazingly smart, funny, and surprisingly inspirational book. When I picked up a copy from the library, I had no idea Donaldson could pack so much into one book. I love her stories and characters, but this one has a fantastic message written in a simple way that children can understand….

2 stars In my opinion, this is a pretty dull book. Then again, I am not really a fan of Peppa Pig to begin with so that probably isn’t a very fair assessment. In this random story, Peppa and George wander around counting things while looking for ducks. It’s not much of an “adventure”, but…

5 stars Oh my gosh, this is such a creative idea of a book. While the book doesn’t tell a fluid story, it is still very entertaining nevertheless. It is basically if Inception was a children’s picture book. I love Julia Donaldson’s books. They are always sure to delight. Axel Scheffler did the illustrations for…

2 stars For whatever reason, I cannot stand Peppa Pig. In the show, I think it’s the strange storylines and the horribly annoying snort laughing that ends each episode. Normally, I wouldn’t read this book, but at work we are exposing a kid to various kid things and last week was Peppa Pig so I…

3 stars Another fun Elephant and Piggie book. This one tackles trying new foods and not liking the same foods as your friends. A cute book with hilariously colorful pictures. This is a fun read. As with the other Elephant and Piggie books, this one is great to read with kids, each person taking on…

4 stars I love the Elephant and Piggie books and this one is no exception. A hilarious book about the power of pretending. As with the other Elephant and Piggie books, this one is told entirely in different colored speech bubbles, which makes it a wonderful book to take turns reading lines with children. Each…

3 stars Overall, I enjoyed this book. I didn’t like it as much as some of the other John Green books I have read, but it was still a good read. Interesting concept for a story. I really enjoyed the characters. I’ll admit it took me a while to warm up to Will Grayson (the…

2 stars This book was really difficult for me to get into. As a kid, I remember a lot of my friends reading it. As an adult, I still didn’t really know what it was about having never read it in school, so when I saw it in the Little Free Lending Library, I picked…

5 stars This book is wonderfully-written, majestically-crafted, and hauntingly beautiful. I loved every moment of it. Last week, I listened to the audiobook version of this book, which was very good. Then I saw that it was an abridged version so of course I had to hunt down the full story. And here we are….

4 stars Another very cute Max story. I didn’t like this one quite as much as Max the Brave, but it still a very fun story with great, simple illustrations. I really liked the moon and sky artwork. This is a very good read-along story, because of the whispering and yelling elements. Nice Max adventure.
