Read Review

Dr. Seuss’s wonderfully wise Oh, the Places You’ll Go! is the perfect send-off for grads—from nursery school, high school, college, and beyond! From soaring to high heights and seeing great sights to being left in a Lurch on a prickle-ly perch, Dr. Seuss addresses life’s ups and downs with his trademark humorous verse and illustrations, while encouraging readers to find the success that lies within. In a starred review, Booklist notes, “Seuss’s message is simple but never sappy: life may be a ‘Great Balancing Act,’ but through it all ‘There’s fun to be done.’” A perennial favorite and a perfect gift for anyone starting a new phase in their life!

From the Hardcover edition.

Are you looking for an entertaining way for your children to learn to read? If you have children aged 5-9 that want to learn to read then 101 Animal Jokes for Kids : Using Sight Words is for you. The author has been teaching for over 15 years and is a parent of school aged children. This book is a fully illustrated eBook, for ages 5-9. Children love this book because of the eye catching illustrations and the funny jokes. Parents and teachers have been using this book as read aloud book or as a self-read book for older children.

Sight words make up over 50% general writing and are the most frequently used words in the English language. Therefore, learning sight words is a crucial goal to learning how to read by the 3rd grades. These words can not be “sounded out”, and hence must be learned by sight. This book includes over 200 sight words. This list includes words for children in prekindergarten up to 3rd Grade.

Concepts in this book have been used since the 1940’s by teachers, parents, and counselors to teach reading skills. Illustrations are vibrant and delightful to keep children’s attention. The text is well written and delivers easy-to-digest information.

This book provides parents, teachers, and counselors with an entertaining way to teach children how to identify sight words. This book uses similar words found in PBS kids, raz kids, funbrain, and starfall books. The books includes a sight words list that can be used to make flashcards. The book contains a free gift to help your child read. This book may be free for Amazon Prime members.

Series: Top of the Wardrobe Gang Diaries
Book 1 – Diary of Oscar Rabbit
Funny, Illustrated Bedtime Story – Read Aloud / Beginner Reader, for ages 4-8

Young fans of this talented team of cuddly toys may already be used to reading their rhyming picture books, but what do the gang get up to when they are not creating children’s books?

This first book in the series shows entries from the diary of Oscar Rabbit.

Although he is supposed to be in charge of producing the gang’s books, Oscar doesn’t always feel the others listen to him. He’s having a particularly bad week. The rest of the gang are all distracted about getting ready for a big swimming trip next weekend. Oscar doesn’t want to join in. After all, stuffing SINKS, doesn’t it?! (Oscar is also scared of water, and determined not to get wet.)

As the week unfolds, Oscar notes down his thoughts, and includes pictures to show you what these funny toys get up to. He even learns something important about his own fears, and about how much he really loves his unusual family.

This is a fun “read aloud” book for adults to enjoy reading to younger children. The story is brightly illustrated, and the chapters are fairly short and simple – ideal for newer readers to tackle.

For extra fun, Oscar includes a few puzzles after his diary entries. (WARNING – THESE MAY CONTAIN CARROTS!!!)

A fun bedtime read that is sure to become a firm favorite.

While Santa and Mrs. Claus eat their dinner, Santa sneakily feeds his sprouts to one of the reindeer rather than eating them himself. The result is, uh, smelly, to say the least. Now, Rudy can’t seem to stop releasing windy pops from his backside as he and the other reindeer help Santa deliver presents on Christmas Eve. The rest of the reindeer are downwind from Rudy and they are not handling the sprouty wiffs so well. They laugh so heartily at Rudy’s rear-end trumpet that they simply cannot fly the sleigh as usual. It’s up to Rudy’s super-turbo gas to get them back to the North Pole.

A hilarious father-son romp for fans of Don’t Push the Button! and Mustache Baby.

A young boy longs for a beard like Dad’s, and when he discovers a hair-growth product called Beard in a Box, he must have it! He rips open the package, plants the beard seeds, and waits . . .

And waits . . .

And waits.

Hilarious art and a feel-good ending make this the perfect Father’s Day gift for bearded and clean-shaven readers alike!

“From the boy’s imaginings of what his beard will look like (and each beard’s accompanying attribute) to the hysterical vignettes showing him waiting for the mail, exercising his face, and expressing his frustration, the facial expressions are spot-on. Yes, dads are awesome, and if you hang out with them, they’ll teach you to be awesome too.” —Kirkus, starred review

But this is the wild world, after all, and something horrible is waiting to swoop down—booby voobeck!—only to be carried off in turn. Su! With exquisitely detailed illustrations and tragicomic flair, Carson Ellis invites readers to imagine the dramatic possibilities to be found in even the humblest backyard. Su!
