Mallika is a tiger cub who along with her mother and brother have staked out the watering hole waiting for prey to catch to eat. A peacock comes and Mallika pounces on it and her brother tries to steal it. Mallika loses her temper and her mother tries to teach her about losing her temper. When the monkeys start to tease, once again Mallika loses her temper and it has consequences. While Mallika tries to control her temper, she cannot sometimes and she has bad consequences. When she falls into a ancient building she finally learns the value of controlling her temper.

I liked this book. I loved the illustrations. I like that a lesson was taught through example rather than telling Mallika not to lose her temper. I also appreciated how Mallika finally learns the lesson.

I enjoyed the section after the book given to parents and teachers on how to teach about emotions. It felt very spot on. I liked that a list of books in this series and what they taught were given. I loved the last two pages where a short history of India is given as well as an introduction to the animals in the Ranthambhore Park.

An enjoyable story where I also learned a lot of new information.

Draw Play by Jami Davenport

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Reading Jami Davenport is like diving into the deep end without being ready for the splash. There are so many emotions that flash through the body that all one can do is pray that they are ready for the fall. Draw Play is a beautiful mess with an inspiring message and the heart to back it up. Bruce and Mac are the best of friends with a landfill of baggage between them. With life continuously throwing out curveballs, will they ever find the peace of mind that their hearts have never quit yearning for? Sweet serenity proves it has grit.

Blocked by Jami Davenport
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is book #2 in the Scoring series. This book can be read as a stand alone novel. For reader enjoyment, or to avoid spoilers, i recommend reading this series in order.

Axel gets called up to the Sockeyes, Nothing could prepare him for what happend next. The only good thing that goes along with it, is how Geneva. Too bad she's off limits.

Geneva is wildly attracted to Axel from the first moment their eyes met. She can not act on this as it would hurt her brother. The same brother who is currently her lifeline.

This title starts off with fireworks. More than meets the eye, these characters have a hold on one another and cannot express their feelings. The story is fast paced and has a lot of tension between the MC's. Get ready for a wild ride.

Unpredictable, sexy and addictive. It's fitting that Blocked is a story about breaking rules. Author, Davenport and her characters, Alex and Geneva prove themselves to have that in common. Alex thrives on complicated and that doesn't give off the best of impressions, but there is more to the man then the bad choices. He's all heart when it comes to the things he wants most. That's what makes him so endearing. Geneva brings out the best side of this tempting heartbreaker. Heart, heat and humor will have you hooked on this series.
