Delightful, But Flawed
I bought this book for my child as a gift from my trip to New Orleans because I wanted her to learn a little something about the Emperor from a child's point of view. The book's illustrations are lovely, and there is a good deal of truth to the story. Napoleon loved children, not just his own, but all others to whom he came in to contact. Betsy was a breath of fresh air in an otherwise ...

How it's done
Have you ever seen an author go about their merry way, making books, minding their own business when BLAMMO they suddenly come out with a title that knocks everyone's socks off? I'm sure you have. The thing is, I'm sure that author/illustrator Catherine Brighton put just as much effort into her previous books (My Napoleon, The Brontes, and The Fossil Girl: Mary Anning's Dinosaur Discovery, ...

Different Take on Mary Anning
This picture book about Mary Anning is written in large comic book format. It opens when Mary is twelve and her father has already passed away. It lets the reader in on some information that they might not have gotten from other books on the same topic, for example, Mary searched for fossils with her brother Joe and he was the one who originally found the ichthyosaur in the cliff. I had one ...

Disjointed Story
The illustrations are the best part of this book. Beautifully detailed, in rich colors, they do a better job of telling the story than the text itself. The text is disjointed at times, and when I have read this book aloud to children they often get confused with the story.

A Fascinating Read
It's so fascinating to read the journal of a little boy who became President. This is a captivating and well-written book that gives kids a ton of ideas for keeping a journal for themselves. And if you go to the author's website, she even has excerpts from her own childhood diary to share! A wonderful choice.
