This was asked to do- come on... really...
It seems that I pissed off Readers Favorites- yet that is okay- I would like to say that I am a happy member with them and have had good reviews in the past- there is nothing on them about this comment… I just can’t see trashing out me… and that is okay… yet you can’t take it back… sorry- get over it.

There are things that I really liked about Marcel Ray Duriez’s book A Panda Bear Named Mandy and there were some things I did not like. The story was cute and I liked that it rhymed but it came out too quickly. One page Mandy is in school, the next she is at a playground with her father. If the author can focus on one thing like Mandy goes to School or Mandy Spends a Day with Dad, then the story will make a little more sense and there could even be a Mandy series.
The way the story is written out is in a paragraph. If it was written in the form of a poem the story would flow better and children can see the rhyming words easier. This will make it a lot easier and more interesting for children to read.
The illustrations are hand drawn, which I like, but they do appear blurry at times. Some of the pictures are hard to see what exactly is happening in them. If there is a way to make them bigger and have the story’s words on top of them it might appear better. The story is short but it needs to be badly edited because there are a lot of spelling and punctuation errors in it. On page 3 it reads “lines casted”. It should say lines cast. On page nine the word is “grown” but it is supposed to say groan. These are just a couple errors that I am pointing out.
I like the idea that Mandy is a panda bear. There are not too many stories about panda bears out there. Once the story is edited better I am sure it will do well, especially with children just learning how to read.

The Many Adventures of Cuddles
Tobey, Pandora and Cuddles
Written by Marcel Ray DuriezKindle | $3.57Hardcover | $24.54
About the AuthorThe Many Adventures of Cuddles: Tobey, Pandora and Cuddles by Marcel Ray Duriez is a delightful storybook for children. Once upon a time, in the boondocks of a mysterious neighborhood, lived three squirrels: Tobey, Pandora and Cuddles. They live together in a home under the nut tree. Cuddles is the baby in the family and is going to start school in the fall, which is making her nervous and anxious. Readers see Cuddles making new friends, riding on her new bike, going to an amusement park and doing many different things. Though she feels sad leaving her mom and dad while going to school, Cuddles learns a lot of new things while she is at school. Kids will enjoy this journey along with Cuddles, and the author helps young readers develop an interest in reading through this charming story. A good story for bedtime and teaching in your schools!
The BCBF is a prestigious international event that highlights content for children. The event was attended by professionals and specialists in the publishing industry—authors, translators, publishers, illustrators and graphic designers, literary agents, publishers, teachers, among others.
The book is made more appealing and captivating by the illustrations that breathe life and movement into the characters and scenes. The illustrations complement the author's words beautifully, and help children to get into the reading habit. It's a good book that can be used for bedtime storytelling and it's also good for read aloud sessions in classrooms and school libraries. All the characters in the story have their own personality and they are made more effective and palpable to readers with the help of the illustrations. Cuddles, her parents, and friends will pull readers into the story, which will definitely encourage kids to read more books. Marcel Ray Duriez was born 1991, in Johnstown Pa USA, and raised in a small town of Northern Cambria, previously known as Barnesboro- Northern Cambria. His educational background is in the fields of fine arts, ranging in diverse media’s and English, engineering, and musical. He started novel like writing books- like Neveah saga- A book about stopping bullying. Sammie and Ellie a cute story on the same lines as Cuddles, Sammie and Ellie- Is very good book for kids. Like I said with the other book, I have been a teacher for years, and I read this one to the class also, this is good for teaching kids responsibly, sharing, and sociality. The story is not bad at all, somewhat chatty for real young kids, but good over all. I would recommend it to everyone. I would say teacher would love this, the artwork help makes the book, fun and enjoyable for reader and child. and also Mandy- is one that you would love- look for teen books also- by going to www.duriez19.wix.com/marcelrayduriez
