Review: Turn, Seek, Find – Habitats
Anytime you have a child interacting with the pages of a book, you are encouraging reading!
Review: Bugs and Other Little Critters
Ranging from “at the pond” to “in the dark,” the environments were suitably interesting to capture the imagination of child and parent alike.
Review: Home for a While
This gentle book about caring for a child in the foster care system is beautifully illustrated and delicately written.
REVIEW: No More Plastic
A word to the wise, this book is not for the faint of heart. It deals with what happens when plastics end up in the ocean and it does not pull any punches.
REVIEW: Adventures With My Daddies
This book is a celebration of all families in that it illustrates (pun intended) the commonality inherent in and shared by parents that actively parent and care for their children.
Review: That Missing Feeling
That Missing Feeling, a nice (if somewhat simplistic) introduction to the concept of journaling, falls short of the standard usually set by Magination Press
Review: Easter Morning, Easter Sun
A wonderfully “neutral” Easter book, that playfully incorporates not only the Easter Bunny, but also hot cross buns.
REVIEW: Crow & Snow
I was not ready for the emotional wallop that this picture book packed. In easy, almost sneaky language, the book tells the story of lifelong friends that span a “lifetime” and grow a deep, loving bond, that survives many breaks and ebbs.
