The revealers is a great way to shed light on the issue of bullying. It helps the reader to see that everyone has their own story to share. By sharing stories we see that students in Parkland (aka Darkland) Middle school are looking differently at one another and seeing each other with open eyes. Bullying is a problem that should never be ignored or swept under a rug.

Can Duck and Cat be friends?

If you or your children- or better yet, you and your children!- love classic children's literature, you're in for quiet a treat. There is so much more to Peter Pan than what you have ever seen in a cartoon movie or a play. Peter Pan and Wendy is beautifully written and totally enchanting. J.M. Barrie's imaginative storytelling and sweet asides to the reader, as if telling morsels of secrets just between the two of them; will keep drawing you back into the book.
Peter Pan, in case you haven't heard, is the tale of a boy who lives in the magical locale of "Neverland", where he and all its other occupants never have to grow up. So Peter Pan is an eternal boy. And he embodies and gives life to all the characteristics we love about boys: their mischievousness, their teasing, their curiousity, and their need for adventure. And his home of Neverland is home to such creatures as fairies, pirates, and mermaids. The stuff of childhood dreams!
In perfect harmony with the beauty of the written words, in this particular edition are the stunning illustrations. Every chapter has its own work of art. The large size of the volume, the sturdiness of the book, and the attached satin bookmark give this book a timeless and classic feel. My seven year old and I absoultely adore this volume!
Get the book so your children- or yourself!- can fall in love with a tale that's been captivating hearts for over a century.
Apparently all kids are the same- the kids in this book do the same things that my children do in the winter. The book describes getting dressed, playing outside, playing inside, making messes! The drawings are simple and fun to look at. The writing is rhyming and fun to listen to. A cute, simple book. My 9 year old boy was not a fan, but the girls age 8 and 6 enjoyed this book.
What a fun book for my kids ages 9, 8 and 6. At first they said, "Another alphabet book?!" I assured them this one was different, they would like it and enjoy looking at the amazing pictures. They weren't disappointed. An otter is having 26 friends over for a housewarming party. Each friend is bringing something to add to the soup pot- of course each ingredient starts with a different letter of the alphabet. Our favorite letter was "B" and the kids asked me to go back and read that one again. Cute story and beautiful artwork.
This is a brand new book- just out in 2013. I am often disappointed in newer books because I feel that so many of them lack a good, wholesome story. This book took me by surprise as the story captured our attention (kids ages 9, 8 and 6), taught us a little history and the artwork is beautiful. The book tells the story of a little girl visiting with her great grandpa as he tells her the story of his coming to America from Italy. A touching story. I would highly recommend this book!
