4 stars This book was a lot better than I was expecting. I picked it up from the Little Free Lending Library, thinking I’d quickly read it and put it back. But now I’m kind of hooked on the series and really want to find the second book. The writing was simple, but still engaging….

4 stars A very good book of poetry. Some are funny. Some are sad. Some are rather morbid. But they all have that unique quality that runs through all of Silverstein’s poetry. Well-written and thought-provoking.

3 stars This is a cute, funny little book. It is perfect for kids who don’t really like reading that much. It is definitely worth a few chuckles. I really liked the way they played with the format of the book, like including a blank page in the middle. Very cute. A nice book for…

5 stars This is an amazing book. I loved every page of it! This is the kind of book that you want to keep reading to find out what happens next. There is never a slow moment. It was hard for me to put down. I read a few pages every chance I got. I…

3 stars I am very torn with how to rate and review this book. I think this book did a lot of important things. However, I wouldn’t say I necessarily liked the book itself. I really disliked the format. It was an unique choice, but I personally wasn’t a fan. The movie-style format made it…

3 stars I got this book from a book order as a child and have read it multiple times since then. A good collection of stories about cats based on various sources such as Lewis Carroll, folktales from around the world, Aesop’s fables, and rhymes. I really enjoy the illustrations. The stories themselves are very…

4 stars This is a good read. A nice adventure to the arctic with lots of interesting facts. As always, Jack and Annie act as nice foils of each other. While this one was a bit tamer in terms of adventure, there were a few suspenseful moments. A fun read and great continuation of the…

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.
