Delightful! Mog is so endearing. I loved how Debbie, the girl in the house, sticks by Mog, even when she has her nightmare about a tiger. (That double page illustration is my favorite picture in the book.) The illustrations are cute. The story is mostly funny, with a bit of sadness, and it has a fun twist...

5 stars.
After having read this for a second time, (ok well technically I listened as it was read to me but same thing) I got to experience it all over again as it's been a while since the first time I read it. I have to say that I still enjoyed it just as much.
It's so sweet and it's sure to...
Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth
SO Sweet! A father’s story explaining his world when his child is 2 months old.
I love this book. It does the macrocosm all the way to the day to day, not quite microcosm. It is powerful to show how small this little planet is in all that space and then when you see all the diversity and wonders on...

The cover of this beautiful book pulled me magnetically toward it, from... ok, three feet away. But I'm myopic, so that was the distance from which I first spied it. The children's New Release section of my local library is steps away from the New DVDs, and the books are always artfully displayed. So much...
