Monday thoughts from Dr. Suess, and Helen Keller

― Dr. Seuss, Oh, the Places You'll Go!

Deanie Humphrys-Dunne's review of "The Ruffington Dog Show by Hayley Rose











 “The Ruffington Dog Show” is an adorable tale about Oodle, a beautiful, prize -winning poodle. Oodle looked lovely in every way. She was groomed to perfection for the Ruffington Dog Show. Her coat looked exquisite and she wore a pretty pink bow for the big event. At first, things had gone perfectly for Oodle and she felt confident she’d win another gold cup. But she didn’t notice a wad of gooey pink bubble gum while she was parading about and she stepped into it! Oodles was secretly smitten with Bauzer the Schnauzer. She hoped he’d notice her. Did he come to her rescue? What happened next? Did it matter that Oodle wasn’t the winner that day? What happened that made Oodle feel more blessed than ever before?

I recommend this tale and I believe children will adore it and want to read it again and again.In addition to the story, children are sure to enjoy the enchanting illustrations.

My review of The Naughty Sheep by Diana Aleksandrova

 








"The Naughty Sheep" is funny, cute book for young chldren. It's a good bedtime story. The illustrations are adorabel and comical. No doubt children will be laughing from beginning to  the end of the story. My favorite illustratons are the  ones with the sheep leaping around in her tutu. Other illustrations show the sheep singing  and spinning a top. I feel that children and parents will love this story and want to enjoy it over and over again.  I would have preferred that the little boy fell asleep at the end, and/or that the naughty sheep had answered the questions the little boy asked at the end of the story as well. But, it's an adorable tale that I recommend.

Wilbur's New Home wins Silver Medal!

 


We're thrilled to announce that our latest book, Wilbur's New Home has earned the Silver Medal from 
Literary Titan Reviews.  Here are some excerpts from the review:

"an engaging picture book for toddler and preschool-age children. 

This heartwarming story teaches children about friendship, patience, trust, and openness to change and new things in life

 Change is hard, and Wilbur is anxious as new people come to meet him, especially when they are unkind. Change is hard for many people, especially children. This exceptional book shows children that it is ok to be worried, it is normal, and finding ways to deal with strong emotions is key.

author includes at the end a list of quiz questions to open up discussions with children on these important topics." ~Literary Titan Reviews
