3 stars A nice PJ Masks adventure that centers on the responsibilities of having a pet. Good development of Owlette wanting a pet, then realizing all the things she has to do once she gets one. Great book for teaching the work that goes in to having a pet. Little confused about the ending. After…

4 stars A nice story that covers a lot of issues that children face when going on roadtrips (having to go potty, getting irritated with siblings). Very relatable. The illustrations were nice. I especially enjoyed the Dora-esque map/scavenger hunt. A good idea for a roadtrip and a fun way to make the book more engaging….

3 stars Cute and simple story. I have not watched Mickey and the Roadster Racers so I’m not entirely sure what the premise of the show is, but this was a nice story about Mickey and the friends driving to Madrid. It is a Level 1 reader, which uses simple text and word repetition. This…

So far my favorites are Spirited Away and Kiki’s Delivery Service, but My Neighbor Totoro holds a special place in my heart. Because how can…

Quick note on accessories. This is a super cute look on its own. To complete it, you can wear some gray socks/shoes as well as an Totoro-themed accessories you may have lying around. My mother-in-law bought me some super cute socks recently, which worked perfectly with a pair of gray ballet flats I…
