For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleI normally don't do half stars, but I really am between 2 and 3 stars on this one. Overall, this is an interesting read about the fictional origins of Rock, Paper, Scissors. Those origins are basically epic battles between household items. Why are the ...
I thought this might be a cute book to share with some classes when I teach so that is why I picked it up at the library. This children’s book is oversized and the illustrations are bright and colorful so I was very pleased to see this. I really enjoyed all the different font types and sizes that we...

Imagine my surprise when I found out that it was based on a middle grade (I struggled over this designation) novel ent...
I read Frankenstein Makes a Sandwich and really enjoyed that one. When I saw the author had written another Frankenstein book, I had to read it.This one, like the first, has many different monsters and poems. All are a lot of fun.
