| The bright and colourful illustrations in this book are wonderful, and the story is just as great. It involves a cute little unicorn named Kelp who is looking to find who he really is among his Narwhal buddies. When faced with a question of where he ...more | |

Write Away: One Novelist's Approach to Fiction and the Writing Life
by Elizabeth George (Goodreads Author) |
|
| A helpful book for those in the beginning phases of writing, or an author looking to tune-up their craft. Some sections I found were common knowledge and repetitive, but certain chapters were still informative, inspiring, and fun to read through. | |

| As a family we love the cartoon, and when I found out there were books, this was the first one I bought to read to my child. It was great! A story about young Sarah needing to see a Doctor because she’s under the weather. She takes along her best fri ...more | |

| Some of these poems were poignant and deep. Others are dark and brooding. I wasn’t a fan of the more moodier or too simplistic poems. But the ones I did enjoy have stayed with me. The little pen illustrations add a further artistic touch to the book. | |

| Short poetry is almost like a love language to me. They just get right down to the heart of a matter. As brief as each one is, they linger. They last like an effervescent, crisp taste of cider or the sweet warmth of wine down the throat. That’s how I ...more | |

Hiding Bones: The Best Poetry of Hiding Skeletons & Literary Bones
by Holly Ducarte (Goodreads Author) |
|
| I’ve always found it hard to rate my own book. But what’s an author to do but try to promote it the best way they can. This book is a compilation of my early poems. They are a mixture of classic style poetry and contemporary. Some rhyme, others don’t ...more | |

| A silly, fun book my husband and I enjoy reading to my daughter. It’s a classic, full of tongue twisting rhymes and crazy neat pets from the intriguing imagination of Dr Suess. | |

| This was the favourite amongst the Leslie Patricelli books. My daughter enjoys bathtub time, so reading a book about it was such fun. Rubber ducks, lots of bubbles, and more adorable illustrations to look forward to in this little read. | |
