Chalk Box Kid
Gregory's father has lost his job and they are moving to a new house. It
is not a very nice house and it is not a very nice neighborhood. To
make matters worse, Gregory must share his room with his twenty-two year
old uncle. Gregory is having trouble adjusting to school, but he finds
solace in the old brick factory next door. It is there that he creates a
garden of flowers in chalk on the blank walls. Then through a series of
related events, his life and that of his family turns around. A strong
story that touches the heart. This children's book is for kids reading levels ages 4-8. Leave us your comments. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Let us know what other children's books you would like to have reviewed. Share this post with your friends. Remember to always praise your child.

Wiggle
There's not a lot of story here, but there is plenty of fun as a
playful, rump-shaking pup leads toddlers through some of the many ways
to move around: "Do you wake up with a wiggle? Do you wiggle out of
bed? If you wiggle with your breakfast,/it might wind up on your head."
The dog goes on to jiggle and dance with various objects and creatures
before falling asleep beneath the moon. Menchin's lively, digitally
rendered art incorporates elements of reality-photographic bits and
pieces-that are well integrated into broad, bright cartoon
illustrations. Cronin's nonsensical text is rhythmic and buoyant. This children's reading book is for kids reading levels ages 4-8. Leave us your comments. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

How Do Dinosaurs Clean Their Rooms?
Eat your heart out, Mr. Clean! A house full of dinosaurs are cleaning up
in this original board book from Jane Yolen and Mark Teague, creators
of How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night? and How Do Dinosaurs Get Well Soon?
Featuring Teague's hilarious illustrations of different reptilians
shoving teddy bears under the bed, sneaking pj's behind bathroom doors,
and tossing dirty clothes in the hamper, this dynamic board book teaches
kids that even dinosaurs have to think about keeping their bedrooms
clean. For a super silly read that will deliver great before-bed giggles
or gearing-up-for-cleaning times, this is a winner that packed with a
rollicking roar! This children's story book is for kids reading levels ages 0-4. Leave us your comments. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Let us know what other children's books you would like to have reviewed. Share this post with your friends. Remember to always praise your child.

The Popcorn Dragon
This newer edition of the much-loved story of Dexter, a young dragon who
loses all his friends when he shows off blowing smoke rings, retains its
charm despite the pointed moral. McCue's new full-color illustrations
capture the whimsical mood of the fable. The animals, although too coy,
have appealing human like expressions which convey their envy and
contempt. Dexter is a small creature with whom youngsters will readily
identify. The resolution, in which he wins back his friends by sharing
with them his new found ability to pop corn straight from the husks,
will thoroughly delight a new generation of children. This children's reading book is for kids reading levels ages 4-8. Leave us your comments. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Let us know what other children's books you would like to have reviewed. Share this post with your friends. Remember to always praise your child.

Green Eggs and Ham Cookbook
Working from illustrations taken from the original books, these wildly
outrageous recipes will entice
every adult and kid to try cooking up everything from "Scrambled Eggs
Super" and "Blueberry Bumplings" to lunches and snacks of the zaniest
kinds. Dinners include "Who-Roast" (but no photo of the chicken with
mushrooms stuffed under the skin before baking) and desserts include
"Sneetch Treats" and "Who-Pudding." If your school includes edible book
reports, or if teachers have discovered www.cookingupreading.com as a
classroom resource to join up books and cookery, this book is a must. If
your school celebrates Seuss Day in March, this kids book is a must. For
home ec classes that have gotten too heavily invested in "Welsh Rarebit"
or baking powder biscuits, this is a must. From the "Green Eggs" (real
hard boiled eggs with an enhanced yolk of guacamole) to the "Cindy Lou
Who" corn flake Christmas wreaths, this will delight cooks and readers of
all kinds, all sizes, all ages. This children's book is for kids reading levels ages 4-8. Leave us your comments. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Let us know what other kids books you would like to have reviewed. Share this post with your friends. Remember to always praise your child.
