My Daddy Is a Pretzel: Yoga for Parents and Kids 9 reviews
Baron Baptiste
Barefoot Books, 2004
My kid was glued to the book
I am a preschool yoga teacher and I have seen a few books, but this one is fabulous! My own 3 year old was glued to the book and after reading it she said "again". I definitely plan on using this book when I teach as a little story time. It also gives you step by step instructions on how to do the poses for any beginners.
LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!!

A beautiful book!
Our whole family loves this book. My son, now 3, learned to count to ten in English by reading this at bedtime almost every night. We are just now starting to read the Swahili words too. The information, spellings of the Swahili words and their pronounciations, even the names of the children are all accurate (I speak Swahili to moderate fluency). One note... Most Maasai do not even speak ...

The Story of Divaali
The pages of this book are beautified with the carefully planed placement of illustrations, similar to efforts put forth in the preparation of the Divaali family festival. This book offers those who don't practice Divaali a detailed understanding to the importance of this celebration and it similarities to the Christian celebration of Christmas.

not just for the little ones
We brought our two adopted daughters back to Jiande orphanage as preteens in 2006 and addressed the birthmom question not for the first time ... we had relied on the "Choco" book and other fables available in the mid-90s when we first had these discussions of the "tummy Mom" and the "real Mom." Too bad this book had not been available then. However, it is such a graphically beautiful book and ...

Great Activity
I really love these cards...over the last few months I have been trying to encourage my 8 yr old son to appreciate and enjoy yoga. For the most part he's been disinterested and resistant until these cards....Last night he actually said...mommy lets do YOGA...It sorts different poses and breathing techniques onto different cards with wonderful affirmations...its amazing. He picks and we play ...

Margaret Read MacDonald
Barefoot Books, 2006
An excellent book/CD, highly recommended !
I first saw this book in the local library, borrowed it and was so impressed with it that I immediately ordered a copy from Amazon.com. I have almost used it to death since at school. The children love the catchy folk tune and it has room for so many applications as it goes through family relationships as well as being an excellent counting book. The illustrations are top notch and the singing on ...

Barefoot Books, 2007
A fabulous addition to your library - classroom or home.
I bought this book on an impulse, simply based on the brightly colored illustrations and a brief refrain that that appears when you look inside the book. I couldn't be more delighted with this purchase. The book is a wonderful addition to my fairy tale library and my kindergarten kids absolutely LOVE listening to and participating in the retelling of the story, especially the rhyming ...

The Adventures of Odysseus2 reviews
Hugh Lupton; Daniel Morden
Barefoot Books, 2006
Delightful!
My 6-year-old son loved having this read to him, and I loved reading it. Hugh Lupton has beautifully condensed the adventures of Odysseus into a fun and entertaining narrative, without making the story feel dumbed-down. The illustrations were lovely and suited the text very well. My son will enjoy reading this for years. Highly recommended.

My daughter's Favorite book!
This has been my daughter's favoite book since she received it as a gift when she was 7 months old. She has stacks and stacks of other baby board book, including all the classics like "Goodnight Moon," and this is always the one she pulls out and wants to hear me read. She seems to love the illustrations, which are whimsical, very colorful and glossy, as well as listening to the sweet story. ...

Adorable story!
I found this book when I was searching for a story from Kenya. I was putting together a unit on Kenya for third graders and came across this book and fell in love with it. The mother and son have a sweet relationship and the message of sharing and community come through in the end. Wonderful illustrations and several reference pages at the end of the story. Mama Panya's recipe for pancakes ...

beautiful pictures, nice story
We recently got this book out of our public library and I must say that it is a big hit with all of us. We (my son, my husband, and I) absolutely love the pictures and the text. I think this is a wonderful book that will get lots of mileage.

So much fun
This is a great interactive book. I work at a Pre-school for special needs students and we have music every Friday we use this book and the children love it. One of our teachers uses it in her class on a regualr basis. What a fun way to get the children involved and recognizing different vehicles and the sounds they make.
