Bizzy Mizz Lizzie
5 stars
Author/Illustrator: David Shannon
Mizz Lizzie is a very bizzy bee. She is a good student, takes music and dance lessons, is part of a sport team and now is studying for a spelling bee as she wants to meet the Queen, the prize of the contest. She's on the go all the time pushing herself to the limit.
The illustrations are colorful and reflect how other bees aren't nearly as industrious as Lizzie as well as how bizzy she is and how bizzy it makes her mom.
The problem is that you can only push so hard.
Sheep Blast Off!
5 stars
Author: Nancy Shaw
Illustrator: Margot Apple
A strange shape is in the sheeps' field. They go to investigate and find a spaceship with an open door. Of course, the sheep go in and start investigating only to find they are now in space. How are they to get home?
The illustrations are lots of fun especially with the expressions on the sheep. Little green aliens and an old fashioned spaceship make the journey even more fun.
Olivia and the Haunted Hotel
4 stars
Author(Adapter): Jodie Shepherd
Illustrator: Patrick Spaziante
Olivia is an enterprising little pig. She welcomes her friends to the Hotel Olivia (her house) for a night of fun. Little brother Ian decides to add a ghost.
The book is based on a TV series and the illustrations look like those for the series. They are well done, colorful and engaging.
