A cute story about a fox who is trying to play in the wind. But the wind blows everything down or away. But if he thinks real hard bet he can find fun in the wind.

This was a wonderful biography of Bowie. I like how the book is divided by albums. I contains wonderful pictures, some of which (from his younger years) I would have never known were him. The quotes that are added, plus how they are added to go with the topic covered and not necessarily in the timeline when it happened. Not the best Bowie bio every, but still one worth reading.

I have loved the stories of the little prince all my life. I am glad to see a resurgence of the character in a new graphic novel series.

An interesting concept that is beautifully illustrated. Hedgehog is in search of the Friend Ship not realizing that he is picking it up on his travels.

This is a fun travel book for kids. It puts a seek and find in the middle of many Chicago attractions. And some of those monsters are hard to find. I like that they highlighted areas that are bound to be around for years to come, so as not to date itself quickly.

A fun book, unless you are the zebra that stepped on a lion’s toe. Now they are all running around away from the angry lion. But the lions temper will cool. A fun rhyming story with great illustrations.

I like that the princess wants to build a tower so that she can see over the places she is not allowed to go. I like that this book focuses on a girl who wants to build. But that being said, I don’t care for it. I don’t hate it by any means. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. That being said it's just not one I would purchase. It is probably a combination of an overly long story and while the illustrations are nice, they don’t reach out and grab you.

I understand that this is a preview sample, but that blue ribbon in the middle of the pages covers not only the illustrations, but also the words. Current thoughts. I like the illustrations and that is about the best thing in this book. The story is typical and done better by other authors. Plus, the bible quote at the end seems really out of place.

Tiny is a child. That is all that matters. It does not matter if Tiny is a boy or a girl. Tiny likes to play dress up, and football, an do art. Boy or girl does not matter, only that Tiny is true to who they are. To me, the purpose of this book is to look beyond gender roles, and ask yourself (or your kids) if that really matters. And if it matters, why does it matter. An interesting book.

I am in love with this book. I want so many of the illustrations to frame and hang on my wall. The rhyming story is cute, and you never do figure out what it is. But it is a purple fluffy thing, with whom I would love to be friends.
