Review: Cave Dada Picky Eater

As a parent, have you ever been faced with a picky eater? I feel like this is something that could drive any parent either to the brink of insanity or, lead them to do anything in their power to get that little one to eat.

REVIEW: We Became Jaguars

He is very hesitant, as she convinces him to become a jaguar crawling first along the carpeted floors of the house and then into the nearby forest. The transformation from human to beast is captured beautifully on a bifold illustration depicting them as half human, half jaguar stalking into the night.

Review: Lobe Your Brain

This book is highly non-objectionable; except, I do not know why it was published.

Review: Sound (Shh. . . Bang. . . Pop. . . Boom!)

In short, the book tries to cover too much, in too little space.

Review: They Only See the Outside

From the insecurities of body image to “a” goodbye, to the final goodbye, Dakos weaves humor and pathos into a wonderful collection of poems that will get children talking.

Review: Home for a While

This gentle book about caring for a child in the foster care system is beautifully illustrated and delicately written.

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: The Not-So-Scary Dog

Written in verse (a welcome relief from the constant narrative prose of current picture books) the book has many charms. The rhymes are, for the most part, tight and advance the story well. Kids like rhyming books.
