Check out the full book review of Just a Little Bit.

How much does an elephant weigh? In this story Elephant and mouse want to play on a seesaw. Of course mouse dosen't weigh enough to get an elephant off the ground. So a variety of animals all join in the game. The last one up, a small beatle, finally tips the scale. This creative story is a perfect way to introduce a child to the concept of weight and mesurement.

Ben loves going to the jazz club and sits outside listening to music. He loves jazz music so much he goes around playing an imaginary trumpet. When he does this in front of his friends they laugh and tease him. But there is one person who doesn't tease or laugh at him, the trumpeter from the band. At the end of the story Ben gets to live his dream and learn to play the trumpet.

This book is a great introduction for kids into the world of Jazz. Keep dreaming Ben!

Check out the full review of Pinduli.

My first thought when picking up this book was, I guess its going to be a cute
dog story. But no, think again. Its a hyena. A hyena as a main character? But,
it works. In this story it definitely works.

Pinduli is a young hyena who
wanders off away from her mother. She is found by a pack of wild dogs who start
to tease her about her looks. And for the first time ever Pinduli is concerned
that she is ugly. Pinduli meets a lion, and some zebras as well. Each time
Pinduli tries to change her appearance so she'll be accepted. I'm not going to
tell you the end so hopefully I've said enough to get you interested in reading
the story.

The expressions on the faces of the animals in this story are
memorable. I especially like the page where the lion is trying to cover his
eyes.

Overall, a great book. I would easily give it five stars.


 
 
Did you ever have a toy you loved so much you just wanted to share it with
your friends? Well, in this story that's exactly what happened. Except, once
Piggie let Elephant play with his toy Elephant broke it. Can Elephant and
Piggies friendship survive?

Review
In this particularly charming tale, Duck gets a wild idea. "I bet I could ride a bike!," and he does. He rides past a variety of farm animals who say that the duck is silly for riding a bike but secretly want to try it themselves. The full page illustrations are bright and detailed and are one of the books most attracting features. When I worked at a daycare a whole room of two years olds sat through the entire story mesmerized. Its a must read for any preschooler. Don't forget to read the last page.
