No Passengers. by Gennifer Choldenko. No Passengers Beyond This Point. My rating: 4 of 5 stars.

However, their plane doesn't land at the airport where Uncle Red should be waiting. They end up in "Falling Bird" where everything they've ever wanted is within reach. But, do they abandon their "real" life for this seemingly fantasy one? View all my reviews.

Monsters Eat Whiny Children. Monsters Eat Whiny Children. By Bruce Eric Kaplan. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. How hilarious is this book? I can't wait till my kids are old enough to understand it. Maybe then they'll stop whining. The style of the book is what i love the most. The tone is casual, like the characters are having conversations with you. Hilarious! View all my reviews.

Shades of People by Shelly Rotner. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. What a great book for younger children about skin color and understanding what is most important is what is on the inside. While some of Rotner's shades don't seem to actually match the children's different skin tones, the message in this picture book comes across beautifully. This is a must have book for preschool and kindergarten teachers wanting to teach/reinforce that skin color doesn't make the person. View all my reviews.

Rasberries by Jay O'Callahan. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. At first glance, this is a strange book with an odd theme. However, upon listening to the author read it on the enclosed CD, I loved it. It's the story of a baker who loses his passion for baking and moves away and becomes an egg seller. A long ago friend gives him "special raspberries" to plant. Will the baker rekindle his love of baking? Read on, or listen to the author narrated CD, to find out! View all my reviews. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
