| This was almost a DNF for me--it bogged down in the middle and the language was too flowery for my taste. But in the end I'm glad I finished it...all loose ends were wrapped up, characters were well developed, and the beginning and ending had me hook ...more | |

| Quiet (until it wasn't!), thoughtful realistic fiction middle grade novel about Nathan who has i-sight, which means he's a watcher and can see things others don't notice. Well-developed characters ...Wilder Bacon is a hoot. Based on a real landslide ...more | |

| This book cracks me up. It combines textured illustrations (touching the donkey's fur, goose's feathers, etc.) and as you do, the target animal's sound plays. Too fun! Can't wait to share it with our 9 month old grandboy. ...more | |

"This one is a 3.5 for me, and I appreciate how it covers unfamiliar territory. Benji is surrounded by love. His two fathers and his adopted sister, Becka, who has Down syndrome, adore him as does his BFF Sam with whom he shares an abiding interest in"

| This book is so fun...a celebration of Maine to the tune of "This Old Man" from moose to lobsters to salmon. The rhythm and rhyme are impeccable. The unusual colors are fun...a blue moose! I can't wait to share it with our youngest grandboy, who has ...more | |

My daughter and I saw you on Learning Space today! We've really enjoyed the show and all of the time you and the teachers have given - it's been such a fun addition to our home schooling, and inspired my daughter to read Maxi's Secrets as well. :)
