Parents and Teacher's Take Note!!!

OK! The story itself is a 4 star, cute and accurately describes the analogy of the emperor's new clothes to a town concerned about tornados. What makes it truly phenomenal is the additional information for Creative Minds, Weather Glossary, how to prepare for and respond to a tornado, and it even has a science project to create a small tornado. This makes this book perfect for homeschoolers or teachers alike and perfect for toddlers right on through middle schoolers.

With my Master's in Education, I see the benefits of the story as literature, as practical knowledge of real tornados, and great fun in the science project. I will seek out other stories by this author and illustrator duo! This review is posted on Goodreads.com, also. I received this book as part of their Goodreads Firstreads Giveaway program.

A Comical Tornado Themed Adaptation to the Emperor's New Clothes

Can a giant magical cover protect a town from a tornado? This is the preposterous proclamation from the weasel hired to tame tornadoes in a twist on the classic story, The Emperor's New Clothes. While the entire town of horses, goats and peacocks are being swindled, children will delight at the absurdity and cheer for the one small reasonable citizen in town. A playful lesson in putting aside concerns about appearances perfectly saturated in information about tornadoes. Further resources and activity ideas for learning more about tornadoes can also be found in the back of the book.

Good non-fiction resource for 1st or 2nd grade

As an educator who teaches kids age 3 - 7, I disagree with the reviewer who said this book was best for preschoolers. Although the format is what we might expect at preschool level - one photo and one to two sentences per page, the vocabulary and concepts are too high level for preschool. I would say age 6 - 8. Great photos. Text is a little bland... like an encyclopedia entry has been split up to one or sentences per page, then nicely illustrated. - "Mammals are a type of vertebrate animal. All animals have a spine or spinal column. // A mammal's skeleton supports its body. This cat skeleton has a spine that connects the head bones (skull) all the way too the tail." But, it conveys all the key info about mammals (breathe air, vertebrate, warm-blooded, hair or fur, live birth, and milk.) At the back, there's extension materials for older kids who want more: a dichotomous key and then descriptions/photos of animals that you can assess using the dichotomous key, info about strange mammals (platypus and echidna) and how to look for signs of animals near you. (tracks, evidence of feeding, scat, and signs of habitation.)

Perfect for Preschoolers

This is a simple, easy to understand picture book about mammals. It talks about their similarities, as well as differences between the various species. It goes over things like breathing air, hair on the body, drinking milk, and bone structure. It explains everything in very simple sentences and in a way that children can understand.

The photos are good quality and illustrate what the text nicely. This is a good book for use in a preschool, homeschool, or kindergarten classroom. It's good beginner's book and great for instructing children on a basic level. It would be too simple for many older children, but you might get away with it up through ages seven or eight, depending on the child.

Source: I received an advanced reader's copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Adorable!

Adorable! Simple facts about mammals that are easy for children to understand, matched with cute photos of many different animals! I work in a pediatric office and will be adding it to the collect of books in our exam rooms. Can't wait to see them enjoying it!

Language: English

Release date: 01-06-16

Publisher: Astorg Audio

Genres: Kids, Ages 5-7

Publisher's Summary:

The Red Shoes is a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. The story is about a girl forced to dance continually in her red shoes.

A peasant girl named Karen is adopted by a rich old lady after her mother's death and grows up vain and spoiled. Before her adoption, Karen had a rough pair of red shoes; now she has her adoptive mother buy her a pair of red shoes fit for a princess.

After Karen repeatedly wears them to church, they begin to move by themselves, but she is able to get them off. One day, when her adoptive mother becomes ill, Karen goes to attend a party in her red shoes. A mysterious soldier appears and makes strange remarks about what beautiful dancing shoes Karen has.

Soon after, Karen's shoes begin to move by themselves again, but this time they can't come off. The shoes continue to dance, night and day, rain or shine, through fields and meadows, and through brambles and briers that tear at Karen's limbs. She can't even attend her adoptive mother's funeral. An angel appears to her, bearing a sword, and condemns her to dance even after she dies, as a warning to vain children everywhere. Karen begs for mercy but the red shoes take her away before she hears the angel's reply...

Perfect written version of the famous film

This book is the written version of the great ballet film, THE RED SHOES. If you love the movie you'll love the book, and maybe even love it a little bit more than the movie (if that's possible) just because you get fuller character background and description of the stories of Vicky, Julian, etc. (Being able to know Vicky's thoughts during her first dance of 'The Red Shoes' ballet is great. When I went back and watched the movie, I was able to do so with a little more "inside knowledge" of what was going on in her head.) These characters and their conflicts seem very real -- which goes to show that Michael Powell and Emric Pressburger were excellent writers, as well as excellent filmmakers.

Mixed Feelings. I like it b/c it is from my past, but may not read to any daughters...

A childhood favorite, the watercolor pictures are beautiful. This book has sentimental value, but I think I understand now how I was scared silly into behaving well! It is a bit dark, old school, not a book that would nurture raising a strong woman. Much more encouraging works are recommended by the group: A Mighty Girl, and I think it is better to uplift young girls than instill guilt in them for such a thing as wearing red shoes, dancing, or skipping church.

Still, there is an artistic value to it even in being dark, and maybe it helps also teach compassion and empathy.

The Red Shoes

After buying the movie first, I decided to get the book which was better than the film. Isn't that the way it is though. I found so many little facts that they left out of the movie since the book was written 30 years after the film production, Differences like: Boris asks Julian to stay with the company and Vicky totally ignores this marvelous act of grace given to them but goes off with her new lover to London leaving Boris flat with no Prima ballerina. If they had stayed in Monte Carlo with the Ballet Lermontov, maybe she would not have died in the end. But, then again, it is just a fictional story. I really liked the book. The story is pure fantasy with some reality mixed up in one great film with lovely ballets and sweet first love.

A great story for kids of all ages

A great story for kids of all ages! I use it in the classroom from pre K through 5th grade although it would certainly fit an older audience well. Letting go of anger is a struggle for children, these words show them through a child's eyes all the beauty that can come from letting it go. A BIG THANK YOU TO THE AUTHOR.

A Nice Explanation off Geocaching for Kids of All Ages

This book was really enjoyable. I always wanted to be a pirate and hunt for treasure. Eclair, a young girl very aware of the living arrangements of her family, wants to find good gold and help her father but a house. Grandma Stella and Eclair follow the GPS to find the treasure box. But the treasure is hard to find even after they get to the correct area. Finally after really searching they locate the box. It is filled with cash but not the kind Eclair wants. Grandma Stella explains about the treasure in the box. Eclair gets a fiddling of treasure and promises her dad to show him how to geocache. I really liked and LEARNED from this book.

Makes kids want to have their own adventure!

Normally you would get my thoughts on a book but I had my 9 year old read this one with me so you'll get a mixture of our views on this one. Our family recently discovered a local group who goes geocaching so this was a fun way to introduce the activity to the boys (ages 9 & 11). I love the story about Éclair and her grandmother. I giggled as I listened to my son read about the pair and the adventure that they have together.

Geocaching is an adventure that requires kids to use their own imaginations. I am a firm believer in kids doing more than sitting in front of brain-numbing technology. It's a story that is an easy read for children who are easing into chapter books without being overwhelming for them. It's a lot of fun! Even though the main character is a girl, my son loved her adventure and the new friend that she makes!

I received this book to review through Beck Valley Books Book Tours, all the opinions above are 100% my own.

A lovely book for both children ad well as adults...Must Read!

I have recently read a few books featuring Geocaching and this a concept that is both appealing and loads of fun! When I heard about Eclair Goes Geocaching, I was instantly interested. The cover is beautiful and reminded me of all those Famous Five adventures I used to practically eat, sleep and think about in my childhood.

The blurb and title are further attractive and sure to hold the initial interest of the readers.

While the story seems like it is for children, I soon realized that it is easily enjoyable for adults as well! This is the first book by Michelle Weidenbenner that I have read and I really enjoyed her story narration.

She took an idea and developed it into a lovely book. All through the story she keeps surprising the readers with new lessons while also making us follow the thrilling trail of clues as she go geocaching alongside Eclair.

Her writing style is simple, engaging and very expressive. I could visualize and feel the excitement of Eclair and also felt like I was back to those afternoons after school I used to spend reading my latest acquisitions from the school library!

Steady paced and beautifully written, I loved this book and think it is a great book for both children as well as adults.
