wish...

Wish there was more...took short. Story teller was better in other books. This is only 2 chapters!

A Short Visit On Mid-Summer's Eve

This is a short story versus the previous typical format of a book with several sections and vignettes. The focus here is also a bit different with much time spent looking at things from the Park Keeper's view. It also touches on some softly philosophical thoughts on self worth and the value of how one sees ones self. Not that much of Mary in this story, although she does play key roles. The story does not suffer for this and, in my mind, actually benefits from it.

Title: The Boy Who Cried Wolf!

Subtitle: Sommer-Time Story Classic Series

Author: Carl Sommer

Narrator: Carl Sommer

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-02-13

Publisher: Advance Publishing

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 9 votes

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

While grownups understand the magnitude of guarding sheep, children may lack an ability to see the bigger picture. Nicholas finds tending his family's sheep to be mind-numbingly boring, which is why he ultimately makes the impulsive decision to cry "Wolf!" To his delight, his alert prompts the townspeople to drop everything and rush to his aid, but when the people discover they have been duped they are livid.

Nicholas finally comprehends the ramifications of his foolhardy decision when the wolf genuinely attacks. This time, no one comes to help resulting in disastrous consequences. A retelling of Aesop's classic fable for children, this story goes beyond the wolf's attack and illustrates the power of honesty and forgiveness.

Members Reviews:

This one worked!

I've been trying so hard to teach my four year old the concepts of truth, lie, and trust, and the impacts they have on him and others. This book does a great job. Poor little Nicholas (I think that's his name). His parents and the town's people ride him so hard for lying. It actually became a little "Okay now, I think he gets he did something wrong!" But the author had to do this to drive the themes home. Well it worked. This author's adaptation worked. My son came out knowing and understanding the concepts. And whenever he is on the verge of telling a lie, I remind him of the little boy in this story, and he straightens up! This one is a must have.

Well illustrated classic fairy tale

With brightly colored illustrations, this book tells a classic tale of the boy who cried wolf. it teaches kids about the perils of lying and the possibility of restoration. Well written and timely. I liked this story and will be keeping it on my kindle for future generations.

Great book

I gave this book five stars not only because of the great moral of the story but also because of the excellent illustration done in this story. The colors and pictures are very nice. This was a great story for my seven year old to read!!!!!

Five Stars

Excellent buy

Great Lesson Teaching.

I jumped on the opportunity to download this book for free. My daughter has had a penchant for lying. This story helped her to see why lying about things is wrong .Can't go wrong with this classic tale!

Title: Tom Thumb

Author: Brothers Grimm

Narrator: Laura Paton

Format: Abridged

Length: 14 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-25-13

Publisher: Naxos AudioBooks

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

This is a story from the Grimm's Fairy Tales collection.

Here are some of the most enchanting fairy stories of all time. The Brothers Grimm conjure up a world of fantasy, hope and good fortune where the princess meets and marries the right prince (even if he once was a frog), and where the cruel witch, the arrogant wife and the greedy wolf get their comeuppance. It is a magical world which we must all inhabit at one time in our lives and which are as important in this computer age as ever before.

Editorial Reviews:

A poor woodman and his wife wish desperately for a little child. And that's just what they get: a boy as big as a thumb. Despite his size, Tom Thumb still causes plenty of mischief. Laura Paton is an audiobook pro. Known for performing classic stories, Paton handles well technical aspects like diction and pacing. In these stories, designed for little listeners, she has fun too with well-done dramatic voices. Clearly, the Brothers Grimm stories do not grow old, as they have delighted generations of listeners. So, whether it is the first time or the tenth time meeting Tom Thumb, the adventure is still a joy.

My son, who is 26 years old, has always loved the Boxcar Children series. He started reading these books in elementary school and now he wants to get the series for HIS sons.

Need the illustrations

This was a cute, funny story. We were unfamiliar with the series when I bought. Both my son and I love audiobooks, and this one is truly well-read. The only problem is that you miss the cute illustrations. We read the 2nd in the series aloud ourselves, and access to the illustrations made a difference.

So cute, love Pinkalicious. Gave as a gift and it was perfect. You cant go wrong with Pinkalicious!

These stories are really cute, and pinkalicious is a likeable and relatable main character. To the reviews that say that some of the stories are way too simplistic, I believe that is because a few of the stories are meant for early readers to start to learn to read on their own. Some of the stories are similar style to the original Pinkalicious book, although maybe a bit shorter. My 3.5.-year-old likes all the stories.

My almost 4 year old and I LOVE the pinkalicious books

My almost 4 year old and I LOVE the pinkalicious books! We will eventually buy all of them... such an adorable set of stories that littles can relate to.

Beautiful book

This book arrived today for my granddaughter's 5th birthday. The cover and pictures are beautiful. My granddaughter is a great fan of Pinkalicous and I know that she will be thrilled to open this gift at her party.

Great Book

I've been reading Pinkalious stories with my daughter for a year. She loves them and this one is no exception. She was 3 and is now 4 and can't get enough. The quality is great too, nice hard cover, bright colors, and quality paper

Title: Fancy Nancy: Fanciest Doll in the Universe

Author: Jane O'Connor, Robin Preiss Glasser

Narrator: Chloe Hennessee

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-23-13

Publisher: HarperAudio

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

Fancy Nancy is back in New York Times best-selling team Jane O'Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser's book Fancy Nancy: Fanciest Doll in the Universe, about the love little girls feel for their favorite dolls - and their favorite sisters!

Fancy Nancy's sister, JoJo, can really be a pest sometimes...like when she put Easter-egg dye in the kiddie pool and dunked Frenchy in it! But this time she's done something really bad, and Nancy is livid - that's fancy for tres angry and upset. JoJo drew a tattoo on Nancy's precious doll, Marabelle Lavinia Chandelier! Even worse, it's in permanent marker. That means it will never come out! When Mom suggests a fancy doll party to make Nancy feel better, Nancy is excited to accept. But what if the doll drama isn't over?

Fans of Fancy Nancy and fancy parties alike will delight in this story of how younger siblings can get on your nerves sometimes, but it always works out in the end. As always, the central theme of all the Fancy Nancy books shines through, showing how Nancy empowers girls with knowledge through her fascination with do-it-yourself fun!

My daughter loves this book. She first checked it out of her school library, and was so sad to return it that I got her a copy at Christmas. Yes, its your typical Fancy Nancy, lots of frou frou and fluff, but a lot of little girls love it! Easy for them to relate to if they have younger siblings, especially ones who may be a little on the destructive side.

Five Stars

Have all these books now and very pleased with price and delivery.

Best book series for girls

Another great book. Jane O'Connor does it again. I love these books so much, I not only buy them for my daughter, but buy them for my nieces. I think that all little girls should have these books. Some of the most brilliant books for girls currently on the market.

Five Stars

loved it

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

A sweet book about the relationship between siblings, this book details Nancy's experiences with her little sister Jo-Jo who is "quite a handful" as her parents say. When Jo-Jo ruins Nancy's favorite doll, she's pretty upset, but in the end it is Jo-Jo's horrible drawing on the doll that helps Nancy find the doll when she is lost. In the end Nancy realizes that maybe little siblings aren't so bad after all. My daughter loves all things Fancy Nancy, and this book is another masterpiece by Jane O'Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser. THe pictures are wonderful and the story itself is well written. As a teacher, I love all of the elevated vocabulary that O'Connor uses and the fact that my daughter now uses it on a daily basis too. It gives us a lot to talk about in terms of synonyms and connotations and language. I'd recommend this, and all Fancy Nancy books, to everyone!!

Members Reviews:

Wonderful book for all ages!

I bought this book thinking that my 6 year old grandson could start reading it to his 20 month old sister (at some point.) So I gathered both of them on the couch and read the book to them; the minute we hit the last page I heard "Again G-ma" from both of them! And I must tell you we read this book about 5 times that day, with both of them just as involved as the first time I read it.

This is an amazing book, it has a wonderful story, a moral dilemma that a child needs to learn (and adults too.) It allows a child to use their imagination and the prose is so well written it was a pleasure to read. The illustrations in this book are priceless. As you can tell I really think this book is amazing. I have ordered two more of the Penny books from Mr. Henkes. I know my grandchildren are going to love them (and so will I.)

great book!

my 5 year old daughter LOVES the Penny series. Cute pictures, interesting story, and easy to understand what's going on for little kids. This is a great tale of learning right and wrong. Please, Kevin Henkes, write more Penny books!!!

Title: Bats at the Beach

Author: Brian Lies

Narrator: Chris Sorensen

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-18-13

Publisher: Recorded Books

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

The New York Times best seller Bats at the Beach flows from the gifted pen of award-winning author and illustrator Brian Lies.

What could be better than a fun day at the beach with your loved ones? How about if its nighttime and your family members are furry, friendly bats? This charming book of rhymes is sure to become a childrens favorite.

Members Reviews:

Cute read aloud book when studying Bats.

I used this book as a read-aloud while teaching Second Grade. We were using Common Core and used a Bat Themed Unit. There was not much real information in the book but it was a cute read aloud.

Bats at the Beach

My three year old son enjoys this book. I don't love it, but I don't hate it either. Some of the rhyming is a little stretched, or the flow of the reading isn't fluent. But some of prose is cute...the bats roast bugs at the beach (bug-mallows). The pictures are pretty "dark". I know the story takes place during the night, but I just think it could be nighttime, but the pictures be lighter. It is quite a big board book (hence the lap board book) and a little heavy/bulky. Not something you'd want to lug around on a trip for sure.

Five Stars

We all love this book. I ordered it as a gift this time.

Five Stars

Exactly what I wanted.

FUN!

This book is so creative! I love it for Halloween time and sparking a kid's imagination to think about the fun things bats do at a nighttime beach party.

I love this book and I love gardening too. The 2 and 5 year old grandsons are not impressed.

Great grandpa bought for new great grandson. Such a poignant telling of one's life

Recommend

Beautiful things happen

Lovely story

I bought this book for my 6 year old son. It's a sweet story about how a grandfather's garden topiaries tell the story of his life, with each topiary depicting and commemorating a significant moment. The words are beautiful and the illustrations artful, working flawlessly together to communicate Love - love of life, love of family. The first time I read this story to my son, he asked me to read it again and then began asking questions about the lives of his own grandparents. Now, we read Grandpa Green at least once a week, and it will remain a permanent and treasured piece of our family library.

Poignant story, a favorite

I admit I love this book more than my kids, but my kids do also like it very much. In fact, my 7 year old daughter brought it to school as one of her favorite books. Touching, poignant, nicely illustrated. I like books that emphasize family and inter-generational love and respect.
