Children's Literature Books

I suppose giving this book less than 5 stars invites flames, but I call it as I see it.

The conclusion to the grand, 7 volume story arc is very good, I am happy that most of my speculation was more or less on track. JKR threw a...

Excellent packaging and the books are hard covers with larger print and better graphics. This is far easier to read than the soft covers and most of the books are 1st Editions Hard covers. Great to have a complete set with embossed jackets. Has...

This is such a sad excuse for a collector's chest. In fact a cardboard box with visibly ugly edges. When I first read the description it was written as a wooden box which is why I ordered it and figured I was getting a great deal for...

I bought this for my kids for Christmas. Had it delivered of course...The outside of the shipping box says "Harry Potter Boxed Set 1-7" in HUGE letters along the sides. Totally ruined that surprise.
Not concerned about the cardboard, as that...

Someone recommended this book for my children. After reading a copy, I decided against it.

This book seems cute, but it is not an example I would like my children to follow. It's more than just dressing up. Nancy looks down on...

If your daughter is over 4, don't buy this. It's for very young girls. The art is beautiful but the text is super duper minimal.

This is an excellent story and easy read for preteens and adults alike. The lead character's misadventures are hilarously funny gems with little morals tucked inside. I would recommend this to anyone who has a middle schooler at home. Also,...

This book has a GREAT cover (love the art and entire concept). It has a great title, too. And the concept--with graphic cartoon art scattered through the text of a diary is wonderful. The pacing of the story makes it an easy and quick read. I...

Younger kids will love this, and anything that will get kids to read is great.

As an adult who loves children's and YA lit, I found the book to be intermittently amusing but -pictures aside- don't think it breaks any new ground,...

Notice: Spoilers! If you haven't read all the Harry Potter books you might want to skip this review. I do talk about important events that might ruin the stories for you.

I too have loved the Harry Potter Series and was devastated...

I bought this for my three-year-old and she enjoyed the way it opens up the mind to an adventure through drawing, just as I myself did. Wonderful book for children.

My daughter loves the HBO cartoon, "Harold and the Purple Crayon," so I was really excited about finding this book at Amazon for her. Unfortunately she didn't feel the same way about the book as the HBO cartoon. Still I like having this classic...

How The Grinch Stole Christmas is a classic tale about greed, materialism, and the kindness of man for his fellow man all wrapped up in one great big package! The illustrations are wonderful and the rhyming text impresses me. This is a story by...

Recently, I decided it was time to read all of the books that are considered THE BEST in their category. For whatever reason I had never read Grinch, nor seen the movies-and I definately have no desire to got see the movies now.

I don't get...

He soon is taught the error of his Anti Santa Front's ways, and learns...

Pro:
Philip Pullman shows glimmers of brilliance as a writer. His characters are engaging, his worlds are vivid, his prose is delightful at times, and he occasionally produces lush and beautifully drawn descriptive paragraphs. His "science"...

With the movie in the cinemas I think that interest in this trilogy will be renewed...

The first book is inspired and a very good read. I could hardly lay it aside before I was through. The world which Pullman conjures up is exciting...
