Can you even believe that someone such as I has never read this book in its entirety? Almost as insane as I still haven’t seen Fantastic Beasts even though I own two copies….and I read the book. I will 100% use this book as a story tale basis when I have kids. It was soContinue reading “The Tales of Beedle the Bard–J.K. Rowling”

Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm–Kate Douglas Wiggin
Grain of salt here: This is a children’s book. And I usually don’t like childrens books that are classics just because I find them quite boring and like nothing happens. (Generational gap, I suppose.) This was no exception. It’s about a little girl who is lovely, but a bit of a show off. She isContinue reading “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm–Kate Douglas Wiggin”
Harry Potter and The Cursed Child–J.K. Rowling, John Thorne, Jack Tiffany
I wish I had seen this in play form. This was so interesting and cool! Even though JK Rowling didn’t write the play itself, she did approve of this and it’s based on a short story she wrote. I missed my people. This is the only universe that’s ever felt completely like home to me.Continue reading “Harry Potter and The Cursed Child–J.K. Rowling, John Thorne, Jack Tiffany”
Grandpa’s Great Escape–David Walliams
Given the title of this book I thought it would be far more fun than it was. It was actually kind of terrifying for kids I think. Or at least for the 4 year old I read it to. I had to keep editing a little because it deals with Alzheimers and really rough treatmentContinue reading “Grandpa’s Great Escape–David Walliams”
The Jungle Book–Rudyard Kipling
We all know what The Jungle Book is about yes? Okay. I really liked it, but I don’t know that I should’ve been reading it to my little cousin. There’s a lot of carnage in here. Like a lot. It even had a drawing in there of a dead/dying animal. It was not okay. However,Continue reading “The Jungle Book–Rudyard Kipling”
Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing–Judy Blume
This book is dear to me only because I read it to my little cousin and he not only enjoyed the antics, but it kind of reminded me that he is an extra special little guy. In that he’s articulate and does not throw tantrums the likes of this kids little brother Fudge. In fact,Continue reading “Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing–Judy Blume”
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory–Roald Dahl
Contrary to what I’ve been writing about Roald Dahl’s books on here (those were the questionable ones to be sure) I do actually enjoy his writing. It is not really for toddlers, but I should’ve probably knew they weren’t going to be. My bad. However, this book was totally lovely! Just as I remember it.Continue reading “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory–Roald Dahl”
George’s Marvellous Medicine–Roald Dahl
Sigh. Here’s another interesting book by Roald Dahl. And wildly inappropriate for a kid. I have to keep reminding myself that these are not meant for Daryl’s age group (Being 3 years old.) . That they are meant for older kids. But I also don’t appreciate what this one was saying to that age groupContinue reading “George’s Marvellous Medicine–Roald Dahl”
Roald Dahl
The Giraffe, The Pelly, and Me—Roald Dahl This book was short and sweet and so will this review be: This was about a little boy who was introduced to his new neighbours: a giraffe, a pelican, and a monkey. They had just moved in and were renovating a house to be their business. They wereContinue reading “Roald Dahl”
The BFG–Roald Dahl
The kid and I have moved on from short baby stories for the soul purpose of helping me to not keep reading the same story over and over again at nap time. Thus taking us over to his sisters collection of Roald Dahl books that I thought would be a safe bet when reading toContinue reading “The BFG–Roald Dahl”
