My Review of Little Bird is Afraid of Height by Ingo Blum

 

"Little Bird is afraid of Height" is a very cute story about a small bird who is afraid to fly. Other birds in the neighborhood tease Little Bird becasue they couldn't imagine a bird being fearful of flying. Little Bird feels sad without friends so he starts looking for one who doesn't fly. He meets a lion but the lion says he'd eat the little bird so that wouldn't work. The young bird meets a mole who says they can't be friends because th mole can't see well and he's always undserground. The young bird also meets an elephant along the way, and a fish. But each gives reasons why a friendship wouldn't work.
One day, Little Bird meets a Kiwi Bird who needs help. The bird is too small to rescue the Kiwi Bird but he finds other animals to help. And Little Bird even surprises himself.
Preschool and very young children are likely to enjoy this book and it's endearing illstrations. The lesson learned is an important one. I recommend this book. If the print was bigger, it would be easier for young children to read.

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.

Review of Chickens Don't Live in Tree Houses by Laura Willigham

 

"Chickens Don't Live in Tree Houses" is a cute story with examples of creativitiy and helping others. Lily, a young chicken, decides to make a plan for her family and others while they are having extended rainstorms. Lily and her family live on a hilltop so Lily's Dad thinks they will be safe. But their friends who live in low-lying areas may not be so lucky. Lily's parents decided to invite friends to stay with them. Lily has a great imagination so she plans to convert their tree house into a house she and her family can live in, while the guests can enjoy the family home. 

What does Lily do to prepare? She makes curtanis for the windows. She cleaned the floors and brought blankets and pillows from the house.  She was quite thorough with her preparations. 

Lily's plan worked well. I would have liked to see more engagement between Lily's family and their guests and perhaps a more colorful cover showing the chickens inside the tree house. Chicke But the story shares cute illustrations and lessons on helping others, being creative and thoughtful, and showing that home is where the heart is. These are all fine lessons for children to learn.

Review of "With Jesus I tell the Truth by G. L. Charles and Good News Meditations

 

"With Jesus I tell the Truth" is a fine book for  young children. In the story you'll meet Macy a little girl who loves having fun with her friends. But what happens when Macy finds a piece of cake on the table? She didn't ask her mom about it. She decided to eat it. Later when Mom asked where the cake went, Macy wasn't  truthful. But the little girl learns more about Jesus' teachings and realizes she made a mistake. She confessed to her parents. The story talks about honesty in a way children will understand and relate to. This is an important life lesson for children. I recommend this book highly. The illustrations are engaging and the book is well-written."

Review of Yara and the Yellow-headed Parrots by Yossi Lapid

 

“Yara and the Yellow-Headed Parrots” is a beautiful tale of a little girl named Yara who loves the Rain Forest and all of its inhabitants. Yara loves watching over parrot parents who built the nest for their little ones very carefully. They put it high on the branch of a tree, hoping their two babies would be safe from all dangers there. Yara noticed a young man with a sack lurking around near the parrot nest. She wanted to know about his plans. Clearly, Yara noticed the young man was sad when he told her the baby birds would bring him a good price. He explained he needed the money to pay doctor bills for his child. Yara offered the man a better plan. She knew someone in the forest who had marvelous healing abilities. How did Yara know such a thing? Because the doctor had healed her of the same disease that plagued the young man’s son. I loved the story. The rhymes were perfect and the message was one all children should hear; It’s important to protect the environment. Not only that, but also, there are often better alternatives to any situation that you may not have considered. As in all of Yossi Lapid’s books, the illustrations are extraordinary. I highly recommend this story to children and families.

Review of Bubba and Squirt's Mayan Adventure

 

This exciting story, Bubba and Squirt’s Mayan Adventure, begins when Bubba and his big sister, Squirt, visit their grandpa. They saw a strange looking statue there and grandpa told them it was called an Alux (Ah-loosh), or a Mayan gnome. Shortly after that, Bubba and Squirt use a sled but it isn’t to slide on the snow. Instead, it leads them down a mysterious tunnel where they see various pyramids.

Bubba and Squirt briefly think of going home, but they end up meeting a young girl named Esperanza and her dad. What happens next? Bubba, Squirt, Esperanza and her dad work together to find a crafty thief. Who was stealing the valuable Mayan artifacts? Readers will be mesmerized by the story. They’ll eagerly turn the pages to see what happens next.

This is an engaging story for young readers.  They will also enjoy the extra information at the end of the book, such as the information on the Mayan civilization, the country of Belize, the glossary,  and recipes that Bubba and Squirt enjoyed on their  journey. I highly recommend it. Another wonderful book by Sherry Ellis. Congratulations on a job well done, Ms. Ellis.
