3 stars I will start by saying that I enjoyed the audiobook of this one better than the first. The first audiobook was narrated by the author, a quality that I usually very much enjoy as the author has insight the reader doesn’t and it comes across in the way they read, which is a…

4 stars Another great “Do Not Bring Your Dragon…” book. I really enjoy this series. I love that it features “nice” dragons. I have always had a soft spot for these beautiful beasts so I enjoy some representation that doesn’t present them as fiery menaces (when at least not entirely). Cute book about wanting a…

4 stars This is a hilarious and awesome book. Great new spin on the Cinderella story. I love fairy tale retellings. Honestly, I probably love them more than the original fairy tales, because of all of the weird sexist scenarios and not-so-great messages in the originals. Which makes me love this one even more. First…

4 stars Cute introduction to Vampirina. Going into this, I didn’t really know anything about Vampirina. One of the kids I work with has some of the figurines so that was all I had to go on. This is a nice introduction. It goes through the main characters and Vee’s initial struggles to fit in…

5 stars This is an absolutely beautiful book. I picked this up at the library because I am obsessed with fairy tale and nursery rhyme retellings. This is by far one of the best ones I have read. I loved the simplicity of the story, but the complex mental struggle Humpty Dumpty goes through. This…

4 stars A cute story about Mr. Incredible trying to put Jack-Jack to bed (and getting quite a surprise). I liked the repetition in the story-telling. It flows very nicely and makes a great bedtime story. The pictures are also very entertaining. The last picture of Jack-Jack sleeping was simply adorable. I have read this…

4 stars I actually enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I liked the film Coco well enough, but it’s not one of my favorites. I picked this book up at the library to read with one of the kids I work with (who really enjoys the film). This was a great story. A…

3 stars Good story based on the Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks show. This is a Level Two book with longer sentences and more difficult vocabulary. It’s an interesting book, a little choppy at times in its attempt to summarize an entire episode into a manageable picture book, but overall entertaining. The only thing I really…

3 stars I saw this book at the library and was instantly pulled in by the interesting cover and intriguing title. This was an entertaining book. I am not creative enough to write an “I hate…” review so I’m just going with the standard style. This is a huge book that is actually a pretty…
