A Little Bit Different
A Little Bit Different by Claire Alexander My rating: 3 of 5 stars I thought this book was really cute. The illustrations made me happy, and made me wish there was more to the story. The message of the book comes across without any words, but I do wish there had been some, just to … Continue reading A Little Bit Different
I Text Dead People
I Text Dead People by Rose Cooper My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was a fun read. The characters had more going on than the reader is initially led to believe, and their intentions seem sketchy at best most of the time. Part of me has to wonder why Annabel kept the phone for … Continue reading I Text Dead People
The Hero’s Guide to Saving Your Kingdom
The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom by Christopher Healy My rating: 3 of 5 stars I like reading new spins on classic fairy tales, and this book was a good one. In a way, it kind of mocked the classic stories. The classic stories have the princesses who are protected and saved by Prince … Continue reading The Hero’s Guide to Saving Your Kingdom
The Worst Witch
The Worst Witch by Jill Murphy My rating: 3 of 5 stars I started reading this series after I had already watched the first season of the Netflix show. I have to say, this is one of those raw times when I can truly say that I like both. They have their differences, but I … Continue reading The Worst Witch

This book shows kids that first impressions are not always correct, and you are capable of creating your own magic. Of course, a bunch of worms never … Continue reading Ivy and Bean
A Library Book for Bear
A Library Book for Bear by Bonny Becker My rating: 3 of 5 stars I must admit, I am still slightly confused as to why Bear felt that a book about pickles was something he needed in his life, but okay. It was a cute story that shows children that there are great things out … Continue reading A Library Book for Bear
The Chicken Squad: The First Misadventure
The Chicken Squad: The First Misadventure by Doreen Cronin My rating: 3 of 5 stars I read the first book in the J.J. Tully series before reading this, so I did have some background on the characters before I started. I found that this book provides enough background that the reader does not have to … Continue reading The Chicken Squad: The First Misadventure
Peter & Ernesto: The Lost Sloths
Peter & Ernesto: The Lost Sloths by Graham Annable My rating: 3 of 5 stars I've never enjoyed the travels of sloths as much as I did while reading this book. Not that I've ever really thought about sloth travels, but here we are. It was fun seeing how the sloths dealt with animals and … Continue reading Peter & Ernesto: The Lost Sloths
The League of Unexceptional Children
The League of Unexceptional Children by Gitty Daneshvari My rating: 3 of 5 stars I have to say, I was with the kids for a while on this one, wondering if someone was just messing with them. It seems so weird to say that you want people that are as average as possible. In a … Continue reading The League of Unexceptional Children
