Wow, I loved reading about how every animal on the farm does not do what it is generally expected to do. I liked how each animal was attributed with a specific and different demeanor than the others, and how well it rhymed the animals' names with their personalities. I also liked how the illustrator made...

I LOVE this story about Simon Lester Henry Strauss who is not afraid of a Haunted House. It is told in rhyme and it’s a story for beginners and kids who like some creepy in their story. The artwork is amazing. Everyone’s eyes look so suspect. You can’t trust all the yes in the Haunted house. All of Simon’s...

The cover is great, and the title, 'Ivan the Terrier' makes the deep down pun-loving part of myself giggle. (I think his name is up there with my favorite literary dog name - Nate the Great's pancake guzzling counterpart - 'Sludge'.) I think the art in 'Ivan' is a little wavery - some pages are better than...

This book is about a dog who likes to wiggle alot. This book is not a good book to read, i personally think it is a waist of time, but i needed 5.0 points so i read it. The dog is the main character and he wiggles every where. He literally wiggles in every page of the book. I don´t...

This is another song book, which can be fun. I didn't grow up singing this song, though, so I find myself getting a little tongue tied in different spots, making it less enjoyable for me (perhaps I jut need a little more practice). I'll admit that the song is cute, though. I'm not in love with the illustrative...
