For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleAn absolutely adorable tale that is a silly twist on children not wanting to eat their veggies. In this one, Little Pea dislikes eating his dinner: candy. But if he eats five bites, he gets his favorite dessert: spinach. Is it worth the struggle?This i...

Remember playing telephone as a child? Someone would whisper something in someone’s ear and down the row it would go, whispering, whispering, just hoping that when the last person spoke out loud what they heard it would be what the first person said. Sometimes it would be so funny what they said, it...

An owl named Little Hoot wants to go to bed early but his parents say he has to stay up late and play so he may be a wise old when he is older. Very cute story. Although I worry reading it to a child before bed because Little Hoot can stay up late what’s to say that the child will want to stay up...

Classic story----but still depressing to read. It's how early should you prep a kid for tragic Romeo & Juliet stories, lol?

What? How have I never rated/reviewed this one? It is a perennial favorite in our house - even to this day when the kid is getting into far more 'sophisticated' stuff.

This was a very cute "math-related" picture book. Though I have admittedly not read many picture books as an adult, this seemed to me a very original concept, and the illustrations were very colorful and well done.

Cool concept. It would be fun to use this as a way to get kids to create their own equations.

Allusion is not Illusion rated it 13 years ago
The cover and title were so cute that it wasn't a huge shock (although it was a disappointment) to find that the prose was much too precious for my taste. However, my main complaint was that Low has no feel for Victorian society and its mores, and clearly didn't bother to do any research. Probably s...
