Great children's book

I started binging on all the books I should have read as a child. This one, I feel, would be best if read TO a child rather than have them read it themselves. Its good storytelling and enjoyable.

Five Stars

Beautiful illustrations by Trina Schart Hyman.

Growing up is hard to do

This is a story about a surprisingly new way to enlighten children with reference to

growing up, and Wendy found that out when she was two. Growing up was a way of life. We can't stay young forever. But there was one boy who had defied that logic. Peter Pan was that boy.

Wendy was the oldest of three children in the Darling family. John came next, then

Michael. There was also a nurse. A Newfoundland dog named Nana, who knew sign

language.

One night as Peter Pan followed Tinker Bell, a tiny fairy, to the Darling home, looking for his shadow, he found it hidden in a drawer, and was trying to put it back on with soap. Who or what hid his shadow? Was it Nana or Mrs. Darling and why? About that time Wendy woke up and was startled by him being there and offered to help him. After coming up with a surprising trick the shadow stuck.

Once Peter heard what a wonderful story teller Wendy was he wanted her and the boys to come to Neverland and tell her stories to the other children. He told her it was a magical place filled with adventure and where a child would never grow up. So the three children followed Peter to Neverland. But while they were there, bad things began to happen, like adventures with pirates and indian attacks. Wendy and the boys began to miss home and wanted to go back.But after a little while they began to forget about home and their parents.

Will the three children ever make it back home again, or will they have to stay forever in Neverland? These and many more questions will be answered once you read "Peter Pan," a wonderful book written for children of all ages. It will feed your imagination, because there was one unique thing that Peter Pan could do that no other young person could do. He could fly.

The format was well done. Liked the book also.

I had never read Peter Pan and was surprised by how dark it is. I enjoyed it more than I have the presentations by Disney and others. The companion works by the same author about Peter Pan are included and I liked them as well. I don't know the history of the stories but the "White Bird" and Kensington Gardens books seem to be earlier versions of the Peter Pan concept. Well worth the very low money it cost for the Kindle version.

Good story but the Kindle version needs to update since ...

Good story but the Kindle version needs to update since a lot of blanks between words are missed and making the reading experience really awful.

Giggles & Groans for All Ages

MIss Mae, what amazing things go on in that head of yours and thank you for sharing them with all of us. You filled my head with zany and colorful pictures.

Ahoy Gum Drop! states above that it is for children 5-7 but it should include their parents and others who enjoy tongue in cheek and play on words humor. It is a wacky story featuring all types of life forms with very entertaining names. The chapters are short so little ones can listen to one or more at a time and not get bored. It was definitely entertaining when the characters started arguing over when a chapter was to end or begin.

Owen McCuen is amazing at voicing the human and non-human characters. His inflections were a wonderful tribute to snark for young and old. Your vocalizations drew me into the story as a participant and not an outsider.

This audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher in exchange for an unbiased review.

A Modern Alice in Wonderland?

What did you love best about Ahoy Gum Drop!?

Those of you who are fans of I.B, Nosey's off-the-wall interviews will be right at home with Miss Mae's highly imaginative Ahoy Gum Drop! Those who aren't, well, here is your chance to experience the inspired lunacy of characters who occupy Gum Drop Island and environs ... a fun ride for the whole family. Now, if you want a nice, neat, linear story, well, you might want to look elsewhere. But if you want a literary carnival ride that takes you places that you can only dream about, then you've found your tome. Follow the protagonist down the rabbit hole into a world of controlled chaos, filled with whacky characters and strange adventures ... it is kinda like Uncle Wiggily meets Baron Von Munchausen ... or maybe Peter Pan meets the Matrix.

Which character as performed by Owen McCuen was your favorite?

Cudos to Mr. McCuen for bringing all the whacky characters to life with an amazing array of voices and dialects. He is an accomplished reader and actor. Good find, there Miss Mae.

Any additional comments?

A fun ride with a sweet message (in more ways than one) that doesn't take itself too seriously ... plenty of winks and nods to the reader that keep it all in good fun.

A Wild Adventure that will tickle your funnybone.

Would you consider the audio edition of Ahoy Gum Drop! to be better than the print version?

I've read the book and now I've heard the audio edition of Ahoy Gum Drop! The book kept me laughing, but the audio brought the characters to life, making me laugh harder. Miss Mae has a witty way with words. I especially like the word "Humugity," a blend of Humid and Muggy, I'd guess.

Who was your favorite character and why?

It's hard to decide on a favorite character.

Format: Unabridged

Length: 3 mins

Release date: 08-26-14

Publisher: HarperAudio

Join Nancy as she celebrates the changing of the seasons in this storybook adventure.

Members Reviews:

Disappointing

We are usually huge Fancy Nancy fans in my house. This book is a huge disappointment. There is a typo, the story has none of the wit of the others, and the ending is oddly about Christmas. I know it is "based on the work of Jane O'Connor," and not written by her, but I had hoped there would be some quality in the copy. We own and love many, many Fancy Nancy books but I can not recommend this one.

Art, Vocabulary - Thank you Jane O'Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser

The Fancy Nancy books by Jane O'Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser are fantastic. My four year-old daughter and five year-old son both enjoy them, and I do not mind reading them to them. I enjoy graphic novels and sequential art, and these books simply have strong illustrations - autumn books, with the fall colors, are particularly nice. Fancy Nancy has a universe going. Her father, mother, sister, friends, and teacher, Ms. Glass, provide a nicely realized world of interested, caring adults, and the books have a nice use of vocabulary that is not too complex to teach children new words in context.

Granddaughters love this!

I have two granddaughters and they are 'fancy" so we love this series.

Five Stars

My 3 year old granddaughter loves Fancy Nancy, one more story to add to her collection.

falls short of usual FN charm

I agree with others that this is missing a lot of the classic FN charm. seems like they phoned this one in. I liked the idea of learning about fall foliage, but thought there would be a little more about fall traditions (pumpkins patches, apple picking, etc.) This is strictly focused on leaves and kind of boring.

A fun book for German learners

I purchased this, along with "Die Kleine Hexe" (by the same author), to help me with my German language studies. Although it is still a little challenging for my B1 level German, the story is fun and the illustrations are amazing. I highly recommend this book!

Classic story

Great chapter book for young readers or those learning German. Hilarious story and fantastic illustrations. I selected this book because I need help with my German reading and writing and my German friends have all read this book as children. I can now too highly recommend this book.

My first grade daughter was having trouble finding chapter books she enjoyed reading. A friend recommended me these books and at first I didnât think too much because every week I was buying books in hopes of getting my 7 year old hooked on some series. She absolutely loves all the Princess Posey books. Itâs grammatically correct which is great, but most importantly she is going through a book a week with these. Highly recommend, itâs really an awesome series!

Cute stories with good lessons.

Stumbled upon this series by accident. My daughter (in 1st grade) was worried that they were too difficult for her (she had never read a chapter book by herself before). She had read book 1 by the end of 1st grade and I could hardly keep up with her as fast as she was finishing them. She's read all the books multiple times and still loves them (in 3rd grade). Cute stories with good lessons.

Excellent for young readers!!

Thank you again Stephanie Green for writing a book that is appropriate for young kids to read. My 6 year old is reading beyond her her age and to find a chapter book that about stuff that is her world is wonderful. Highly recommended!!

Title: Wilhelmina Goes Wandering

Author: John-Manuel Andriote

Narrator: Lia Frederick

Format: Unabridged

Length: 14 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-06-14

Publisher: John-Manuel Andriote

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

Wilhelmina Goes Wandering is based on the true story of a runaway cow in Connecticut. For five months, in 2011, the 800-pound Black Angus was the talk of the town as she was seen around Milford, Orange, and West Haven, hanging out and traveling with a herd of deer. Even the animal control experts thought "she" was a "he"...until, that is, they tried to capture "him". When she is eventually captured and relocated to another farm, an animal sanctuary in Oxford, Wilhelmina finds that her urge for adventures has been curbed by knowing she is finally accepted and loved by her new farmer friend Betty. Five- to nine-year-old listeners (grownups, too!) will fall in love with Wilhelmina and her animal and human friends, brought to colorful life in the book.

Members Reviews:

I'd never heard of a cow that actually "ran" away before...

I've seen them walk away plenty of times...

The story is good, and interesting (to everyone reading).

The illutrations are quite lifelike!

This is why my daughter particularly loves this book!

I kept my first copy, but I will buy another and donate to the local library shortly!

Five Stars

I love my book. Its well written and beautifully illustrated. I bought copy for each of my grandkids.

Four Stars

excellent for the young reader

An inspiring Wilhelmina!

For more than 30 years, I have read my friend John-Manuel Andrioteâs work. He is a historian, investigative journalist, social commentator and political gadfly. But, childrenâs author? Inspired by news stories of a wayward cow that caught the public imagination in his native Connecticut, John has created a charming story that works on several levels.

Wilhelmina the cow, bored by the confines of her pasture, literally jumps the fence into a world of discovery. Shadowed by Phineas the Cat on almost every page, she finds herself among new friends in often strange surroundings. Of course, there are those who find Wilhelminaâs wandering unacceptable and work to bring her back to her âproperâ place. Yet, even back in the barnyard, Wilhelminaâs adventure has forever changed her view of herself and those around her.

Katie Rundeâs spirited illustrations bring the story into focus and invite the reader to enter into Wilhelminaâs world. They evoke beautifully the New England countryside with its constantly changing seasons and colors.

This is a book to be read to and with children. The younger ones will be captivated by the pictures and story, while older ones may find themselves identifying with a wandering cow who finds love and acceptance in the most unexpected places.

Home is where the heart is

A curious bovine finds the grass can be greener on the other side in John-Manuel Andrioteâs first foray into childrenâs books. And, like all good childrenâs stories, âWilhelmina Goes Wanderingâ entertains and inspires both children and adults.

Andriote, the wide-ranging journalist and author whose non-fiction works include an examination of the impact of HIV/AIDS on American homosexuals as well as a history of disco dancing, takes a New England news item and projects it onto the big screen of universality.

Except when he talks to animals...

Then he is fluent. Follow the life of the man Time Magazine calls, "the Indiana Jones of wildlife conservation" as he searches for his voice and fulfills a promise to speak for animals, and people, who cannot speak for themselves.

Title: Rootabaga Stories

Author: Carl Sandberg

Narrator: Bobbie Frohman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 3 hrs and 14 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-15-14

Publisher: Alcazar AudioWorks

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

Rootabaga Stories (1922) is a children's audiobook of interrelated short stories by Carl Sandburg. The whimsical, sometimes melancholy stories, which often use nonsense language, were originally created for his own daughters. Sandburg had three daughters, Margaret, Janet and Helga, whom he nicknamed "Spink", "Skabootch" and "Swipes" those nicknames occur in some of his Rootabaga stories. The Rootabaga stories were born of Sandburg's desire for "American fairy tales" to match American childhood. He felt that the European stories involving royalty and knights were inappropriate, and so set his stories in a fictionalized American Midwest called "the Rootabaga country" filled with farms, trains, and corn fairies. A large number of the stories are told by the Potato Face Blind Man, an old minstrel of the Village of Liver-and-Onions who hangs out in front of the local post office. His impossibly acquired firsthand knowledge of the stories adds to the book's narrative feel and fantastical nature. In the Preface of the little known Potato Face, Sandburg wrote, "it is in Rootabaga Country, and in the biggest village of that country, the Potato Face Blind Man sits with his accordion on the corner nearest the post office. There he sits with his eyes never looking out and always searching in. And sometimes he finds in himself the whole human procession."
