4 stars  A very silly and humorous book. I really liked the format of this book. It not only satirizes well-know fairy tales, it also satirizes what makes up a book. I really enjoyed how the Narrator interacted with the other characters. The stories themselves were funny, but not much of stories in and of…

3 stars A very cute story with a great message. A great teaching moment for young children about following the rules, coping with anger, and apologizing when you make a mistake. I really enjoyed the range of emotions Lilly felt in the story. Many children’s books only feature happy and positive emotions, but I think…

3 stars The pictures in this book are phenomenal. Very whimsical and dream-like. The book itself doesn’t have much of a story, it is more just a description of the world. But the book is still fascinating because of the pictures. Great for young children, especially cat-lovers. 

1 star I saw the movie version of this a while ago and while I wasn’t a huge fan of it, I’ve been wanting to give the book a try. I found a copy for a few bucks in the clearance section and read most of it in a day. I can’t stand Greg Heffley….

4 stars Overall, an interesting book. It’s good to know going in that McCarthy does not use quotations in this book. If you go in without knowing that, you might feel some resentment toward him. For the most part, the reader knows what’s going on despite the lack of proper grammar. There were a few…

4 stars I’ve heard of this book and seen it around, but didn’t really think I’d get much out of it. Then I found a copy in the Lending Library and figured I’d see what all the hype was about. It was worth it. This is a very short, simple book. I was expecting a…

4 stars This was a good book. It’s not like there was anything necessarily bad about it. Cool story and a creative way of approaching the subject of loss and grief. I think my expectations were too high for it though. I had heard really great things about it and wanted to read it before…

4 stars I received a copy of this book through Goodreads in exchange for an honest review.Overall, I liked the book. It is composed of essays from Mary Collins and Donald Collins and interviews with other people who are trans and families of people who are trans.The book details what Mary and Donald both went…

4 stars A very cute collection of stories. There are stories with a variety of Disney Pixar characters (Monsters, Inc., A Bug’s Life, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Wall-E, Up) and two stories each for some of the more popular ones (Cars, Toy Story, Finding Nemo). The stories were well-done and I loved the illustrations. I especially…
