Brown Bear 361 reviews

Mantra Lingua, 2004
Great book!
Love this story. My son already had Panda Bear Panda Bear, and loved that.. We bought this one, he loves it equally as much. He is 2 and loves the animals at the end of the story, and loves that fact that he can "read" it to us after he learns the animals. Great book, we are going to be buying the others by the this author.

Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type216 reviews
Doreen Cronin
Spotlight, 2006
Fun Book
The item was in good condition and it was up for the lowest price I could find online or anywhere. I got it for my niece and nephew, and they love it, and - bonus! - it came in plenty of time for Christmas, even though the shipping time warned me that it might not!
The cover was wrinkled up as if from water damage, but it's a hard cover, so if you take the slip off, it's still in brand new ...

Ella Enchanted1164 reviews
Listening Library, 2002
amazingly fantastical!
I know many of you have already seen the movie. I know I was a big fan of the movie with Anne Hathaway... and that cute guy that played Prince Charmont. But do not let that deter you from reading this gem of a story. The movie only gives you a glimpse (and a small one at that) as to what is really between the covers of Ella Enchanted.
Although geared for younger readers, I was taken by this ...

Martin the Warrior261 reviews
Brian Jacques
Putnam Publishing Group, 1994
amazing
This is in my opinion the best book of a simply amazing series.
It follows the story of Martin the Warrior, a legendary character in the Redwall series.
Although it wasn't the first book written in the series chronologically, it's probably the best to read first - and if you were to only read a single Redwall book it should be this.
Courage, honor, romance, adventure, revenge...this book ...

Star Wars: A Pop-Up Guide to the Galaxy229 reviews
Matthew Reinhart
Orchard Books, 2007
A Must for Star Wars fans
This is such a great pop-up book. The detail is impressive and there are even real glowing light sabers that pop out of one page. I think it would be a great gift for older children who are into Star Wars. Like any pop-up book you really have to be careful about opening the pages and closing them carefully. It's really easy to hyper-extend the pages or close them too quickly causing part of ...

Wild Magic: The Immortals: Book 1 (The Immortals)275 reviews
Tamora Pierce
Full Cast Audio, 2008
Great series for young girls
I first read Wild Magic and the other three books in the series when I was much younger, but I love to reread them now and again because they're a classic for me. Tamora Pierce crafted wonderful characters, including a host of strong female characters who can serve as good role models for young girls. I highly recommend this book for any fantasy-oriented teens. It has magic, adventure, and ...

John Marsden
Turtleback, 2006
so exciting!!
John Marsden has done an excellent job creating a great and exciting story about friendship, war, and love. I have read all the books in this series and I was so mad when it ended. You feel so close to the charactors that when it's over, its heartbreaking. I wish I could meet every one of the charactors on the book. This series truly has changed my life. I've learned so much and it has changed ...

You Are Special
Punchinello was different. All the wooden Wemmicks in the village were constantly judging people by putting stickers on each other. Punchinello was always down on himself because he only got dot stickers instead of star stickers. One day Punchinello met a Wemmick that didn't have any dots or any star stickers. Her name was Lucy. Punchinello wondered why she did not have any marks. Lucy told him ...

Mattimeo (Redwall, Book 3)215 reviews
Brian Jacques
Philomel Books, 2001
EXCELLENT! 10/10!
This is either the best or the second best Redwall book. It's the direct sequel to the Original Redwall, so there will be a lot of familier characters. Complete with 3 huge battles, a cruel monster that lurks in the dark, and an evil slaver named Slager, this book is ultimate, and I highly reccomend it!

This is the best cookie book--ever. Nothing like those processed phoney cookie mixes that all taste

hand down the tradition to my granddaughter. i was
thrilled to find it on Amazon.com. We had a blast

A Ring of Endless Light203 reviews
Madeleine L'Engle
Bantam Doubleday Dell Publishing Group, 1995
Loved It!!
I loved this book and I would recommend it to girls from the ages 10 and up. This was a good story to connect to your life or the lives of the people around you. The things that happen to Vicky in A Ring of Endless Light might happen or may have happened to the reader. Therefore the plot of the story is believable. I would like to read another story by this author because I loved how thorough ...

Awesome look into the mechanics of a b-movie empire
Lloyd made me promise to review this book if he autographed it for free, and although I'm late in doing so (this was several months back at the Monsterfest in Cherry Hill, NJ)I intend to keep my word. Granted, I may be somewhat biased, in that I'm one of the few people I know who can actually sit all the way through a Troma film without gagging, but I have to say, this book was a highly ...

Best Bedtime Story Ever!
We checked this book out from the library and then we just had to have it. My daughter (1 year old) loves this book so much she kisses every page and brings it to us to read all the time. The illustrations of the mama and baby animals are beautiful. The language is soothing and has a nice rhythm and rhyme to it perfect for little kids. Each page has one sentence so their attention doesn't ...
