Amelia Bedelia’s First Apple Pie by Herman Parish

That’s right. Amelia Bedelia. Oh, but not in the way you remember her! She is young, she is colorful, she is adorable and we love her even more. Usually when people “re-do” classics, I am not a fan. But not in this case. The original author of the Amelia Bedelia books was Peggy Parish and her […]

Presenting…Tallulah by Tori Spelling

Alright…any celebrity can write a children’s book and they make some nice bucks off of it. But really…lots of them should not be writing children’s books. I mean, have any of you read “The English Roses” by Madonna? It’s one of the WORST children’s books out there. Alex Rodriguez’s and Sarah Furgerson’s newest children’s books […]

David Wiesner

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010 in Books/Reading, Children's Books

I love when I find a new children’s author that we can’t get enough of. Yes I know I am probably the last person on the planet to hear about David Wiesner, but in case I am not, I thought I would share! My readers know that the pictures are what get and hook me.  Wiesner’s […]

Sound of Music 50th Anniversary

Saturday, December 5th, 2009 in Books/Reading, Children Product Reviews, Children's Books

Who loves the Sound of Music? I do, I do,  I DO! My grandmother taught my sisters and I to love old movies.  We would all gather on her bed and watch them when we went for a visit. My baby girl Cameron was born already knowing My Favorite Things, Edelweiss and Do Re Mi.  I would sing them to Abby, […]

The Christmas Magic by Lauren Thompson and Jon J Muth

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009 in Books/Reading, Children's Books

Christmas books, and specifically children’s books about Santa, are often really disappointing to me. Maybe my standards are way too high when someone wants to publish a book about Mr. Claus.  Or maybe I am right, and there is a group of really horrible Santa books. Well, I finally found *our* Santa book.  The story and the illustrations and perfect. […]

Cherish Bound & Timpanogos Storytelling Festival

Tuesday, August 11th, 2009 in Books/Reading, Children's Books

A couple of months ago I was invited to a blogger event put on by Cherish Bound and the Timpanogos Storytelling Festival. I had no idea what to expect, ended up having a ball and more importantly learned about two new companies. I was very interested in learning about the Timpanogos Storytelling Festival. I knew […]

Back to Reading

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009 in Books/Reading, Children's Books

You all know I love children’s books because I post about them every week. For a chance I thought it would be fun to continue to post what the girls are reading and loving but also what my husband and I are reading too! Since I started blogging about a little over a year ago […]
