Editorial Review

After reading this book, I guarantee that you will never visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art (or any wonderful, old cavern of a museum) without sneaking into the bathrooms to look for Claudia and her brother Jamie. They're standing on the toilets, still, hiding until the museum closes and their adventure begins.Such is the impact of timeless novels . . . they never leave us. E. L. Konigsburg won the 1967 Newbery Medal for this tale of how Claudia and her brother run away to the museum in order to teach their parents a lesson. Little do they know that mystery awaits! ...

Great Book
This book is great so far. It is full of mystery and adventure. Twelve year old Claudia has run away with her brother Jamie to the Metropilan Muesum of Art. Claudia decided to bring along her brother Jamie with her because he has a lot of money. While they are there at the muesum, Claudia and Jamie come across a great mystery in the muesum that is all over the newspaper. If you would like to find out what this great mystery read this book! Teachers it is also a great book to read with your class. Also edutactional!

Not mixed-up about how good this book is
This Newbery award winner is about Claudia and Jamie, two kids who run away from home. They leave the suburbs and head to New York where they stay in none other than the Metropolitan Museum of Art. They sleep in an old bed in the French section. They hide in the bathrooms. They even take baths in a fountain (and get paid for it, sort of)!But when a new exhibit comes in, the fun really starts. The Angel is beautiful, exquisite, and mysterious. The question: is the sculpture really done by Michelangelo? Claudia and Jamie will do anything to find out. I think I loved the book mostly because I really liked the idea of living in a museum. This book is good for all ages, but I expected it to be longer.
Wonderful Story
I remember this from my own childhood favorites and am now reading it with my daughter--

EJK -
If you don't know the name Ezra Jack Keats, then you just might miss out on one of the ultimate treasures of the literary world. This simple story of young Peter is a delight to read any time of the year as the protaganist wakes up to a snow-filled scene that he explores and enjoys. He even tries to capture a bit to bring home! Read this with your young ones as they anticipate the coming season or read it by the fire as you dry your feet after a winter day.

The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats, reviewed by Joshua, Mrs. Bhola's second grade
If you like snow you would like the book The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats. It is about the adventures of Peter going out in the snow. I like when Peter put the snow on his head. I liked it because I like books on snow. Check it at your local library.

After all these years it's still relevant - rare urban African American protagonist
Atfer all these years, the pictures, text, and message still endure.The art has not become dated, nor has the language.Proof that "less is more" means a classic story.

This book has it all!
Rarely does a book combine learning and fun so well.This book is very educational (it has helped make my kids wild about geography) yet has a humor that is simple enough for my two year old to laugh and sophisticated enough to make me laugh as well.
Wonderful!
This book is great for kids of all ages!My 6 yr old has literally not put this book down since we bought it (he even sleeps with it!!).It is a great and fun way for kids to learn their US geography.

My nephew's absolute favorite book
My 8-year-old nephew Quinten kept checking this book out from the library so we finally just bought it for him.He absolutely loves it, has memorized all the facts about all the states except for the populations! It's a fun way to learn about our country and now we're talking about someday visiting all of the states together. ... Read more

Chasing The Falconers
Aiden and Meg Falconer were trying to get their parents out of jail. They were stuck at a juvenile detention center and had to figure out how to escape. Once they escaped they had to run from the police and the government. Aiden knew a guy when they went on vacation as a family to Vermont and remembered there was a clue there. When they got to Vermont, they found the clue and began a new adventure in Book 2.
Chasing the Falconers
Obviously designed to be the first in a series of young adult adventure books, CHASING THE FALCONERS is rife with action -- a fast-paced, well-written thriller that never lets up. Not meant to be anything more than an action-packed story about a 15-year-old brother and his 11-year-old sister on the run from the police, this is surely a novella that will entrance most young teenagers. However, there is no depth to the meaning or characters, or elegant figurative language.
Chasing The Falconer
Gordon Korman was born October 23, 1963 in Montreal, Ouebec in Canada. He wrote his first book, This Can't be Happening at Macdonald Hall when he was 12.Since then he has published more than 20 books.Also, he has won several awards of young adult titles for his books.

Essential for your library
We "got" Eloise as soon as we read the first page.My daughters, 4 and 6 love, love, love Eloise.They love her antics and can visualize the trouble she gets into so innocently (or not).Eloise is curious, inventive, creative, sleuthy, and definitely oblivious.We travel a lot so my kids can relate to being in a hotel.Eloise lives in a hotel so there are lots of opportunities to involve others (other guests, employees, restaurant staff, telephone operators, etc.) in her wicked (hilarious) fun.After we read Eloise for the first time (and we love the Essential Eloise the best, then Paris) we could not wait until the next night to read some more.

Great Stories for kids!
One of the best writers for children and one of the best cartoon creators.

great, except for some errors..............
The picures are wonderful, stories are great, but the part of The Story of Eloise, they miss judged the spacing and left out the 1st letter of the starting paragraph. Someone didn't proofread it right. You get all 4 book, one great buy with the extras! ( the scrapbook and the story of Eloise) Hopefully they caught the errors for the next printing.

Pull Up a Chair
This is a wonderful story with delightful illustrations about a young boy who is feeling displaced because he has a baby sister on the way.He is upset to see his old layette painted pink for baby Susie and his infant toys passed down to her.
One of Ezra Jack Keats Best Books
I don't know what ken32 is talking about but Peter's Chair has nothing to do with gender difference. It is about a boy, Peter, who is disgruntled at the change that is occuring around the house for his new baby sister Susie. Peter sees that his baby items are being painted over in pink, which is the color that will identify if the baby is going to be a girl. Babies don't care what color their furniture is.
We Loved This Story!
This story is about Peter who has a new baby sister. He is very jealous and doesn't want to share his things. Peter finally gives her his old chair that is too small for him. We liked this story because Peter learns to be a good big brother. You should read this story because the pictures are really nice. ... Read more

One of the most moving books I have read in a long time!
So I had this crazy idea: I'm going to read the Newberry Awards books. I was at my fiancé's school and they had a poster of past Newberry Award books and I had this epiphany: I was going to take some time and just read great young adult books!
Teamwork Pays Off
I really liked this book because it was about different kids that worked together to meet a common goal. The characters were kids that I could relate to, and the plot moved along so you won't get bored. I would like to read other books by this writer and see if they are as good.

Great writer
This is the second middle grade book by Konigsburg that I've read. She's such a wonderful writer.

Editorial Review

Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle has been wildly popular with children and adults for over 50 years. Children adore her because she understands them--and because her upside-down house is always filled with the smell of freshly baked cookies, and her backyard with buried treasure. Grownups love her because her magical common sense solutions to children's problems succeed when their own cajoling and yelling don't. For the child who refuses to bathe, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle recommends letting her be. Wait until the dirt on her body has accumulated to half an inch, then scatter radish seeds on her arms and head. When the plants start sprouting, the nonbather is guaranteed to change her mind about that bath. Read more

Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle, Mrs. Grassfeather, Mrs. Ragbag...Where does it end?
This book is great.If you ever have a problem with your child's behavior, Mrs. Piggle Wiggle is the one to call.Her outrageous solutions to common child behavior ailments seem to work well.In most cases she recommends letting the child wallow in his or her own awful behavior until rock bottom is reached.Only then is the child aware of the real-life consequences for bad behavior.
Mrs. Piggle Wiggle
I really liked Mrs. Piggle Wiggle because there were different stories about her curing people. I have read the stories about her but think this onewas the best. You may think that they take place in different places, but all the children in the stories know each other and the all live in the same town.

Family Favorite
Mrs. Piggle Wiggle was 'The Nanny'/'Dr.Phil' of her time.These stories offer parents and children interesting ways to deal with daily chores and struggles that can sometimes seem overwhelming. I enjoyed reading this book as a child and couldn't resist purchasing it for my girls 4 and 2 to enjoy.We have been working our way through various childrens' novels as part of our bedtime ritual. Books like this are good for holding the attention of children at various levels of reading and reading comprehension. These stories have also served as a springboard for discussion in our family about finding creative new ways to accomplish the many tasks that need to be done to keep the household running.Some of the material may seem dated, but it's definetely a classic. ...

I had the RECORD of this book!
More than 50 years ago, as a preschooler, I had a 78-rpm recording of THE CARROT SEED, distributed by a record club that was called (I think) Children's Record Guild.I can still sing the song and wish I could find a recording for the small fry in my life.

Great for new readers
My daughter is a beginning reader.After completing "Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons," she was able to jump right in and read all but 2-3 of the words in this book.She also likes the story and when it's her turn to pick the book, "The Carrot Seed" is the one she picks most often.

I love the Carrot Seed

finally, a book my one year old and I both enjoy
I love Keats' beautiful collage-style illustrations. As an urban apartment dweller, I also appreciate a book that shows children living in cities and in apartments. The stereotypical "house" that appears in most children's books looks nothing like the home my daughter knows.
Whistle for Willie
This book is for the primary grades.I'm using as part of Black History curriculum.

An especially great book for a city kid
My 1-year old daughter really responds to this board book. She loves the dog, and I think she relates to the colorful simplicity of the illustrations. I appreciate the story, and that it takes place in a city, which will be nice for her as she grows old enough to understand that. ... Read more

Helped my kid conceptualize numbers
The beautiful artwork and kid-freindly examples captivated my 5-year old daughter.Genuinely helped her better understand how big a million is - and, how much bigger a billion and a trillion are.A lovely addition to a classroom, but also perfect for your home library as well!

One in a Million
This picture book is a great pairing of engaging children's literature, detailed illustrations and a deep math concept.I love the way that Schwartz and Kellogg bring this book to life! How Much Is A Million?
Our class liked this book.We thought it was hilarious and gave a wonderful picture of how much a million really is.The kid tower was very imaginative and was an excellent example of a million, billion, and trillion.David M. Schwartz has a fantastic imagination.This book is great for little kids, because it shows there are numbers greater than a hundred.It's language is easy for kids to understand, and it contains many amazing facts.Read more

An American Classic (good history supplement)
Almost 5 Stars
Good Book - Often overlooked
There aren't enough children's stories that are based on Americanheroes, so this one definitely desreves much recognition. Appleseed's character is based on a true character, yet there is a a fair amount ofmyth in the story to keep things interesting and the children engaged; this book is a definitely a treat

Lots of age-appropriate information
I am a huge fan of the Let's Read and Find Out science series of books, and this one doesn't disappoint.Clearly written information, great photographs, and wonderful illustrations educate the K-2 science student in an enjoyable way.

Nicely Done
My husband and daughter are both geologist and they thought this book was well written.My bright 3 year old grandson enjoys having it read to him.Usually it would be enjoyed by an older child, but he enjoys it.

Simple and easily observable science concepts

The Stage 1 books explain simple and easily observable science concepts for preschool- and kindergarten-age children.

Editorial Review

"I am Eloise/I am six." So begins the well-loved story of Eloise, the garrulous little girl who lives at New York's Plaza Hotel. Eyebrow raised defiantly, arm propped on one jutting hip, Eloise is a study in self-confidence. Eloise's personal mandate is "Getting bored is not allowed," so she fills her days to the brim with wild adventures and self-imposed responsibilities. An average Eloise afternoon includes braiding her pet turtle's ears, ordering "one roast-beef bone, one raisin and seven spoons" from room service, and devising innovative methods of torture for her guardians.Read more

ooh I just love Eloise!
Awesome book!Totally loved it--my three year old finds her fascinating."Why does she want to pour a pitcher of water down the mail chute, mommy?"She's a naughty girl but such a wonderfully creative and self reliant one! I think she is a great role model for my little girls!

Mother of Two
I would think someone who would be offended by the style in which "Eloise" is written would be "smart" enough to know that the expression is "for all intents and purposes" and not "intensive purposes."
Don't bother
Wehave one of the softcover books and enjoy it very much and so I thought I would by this for my 4-year-old (who actually acts like Eloise sometimes). BAD CHOICE! I read through it on my own before I read it to her and THANK GOODNESS! Eloise is a back-talking, foul-mouthed terror! I can see how some adults may enjoy this book - maybe they're living vicariously through her antics. But she is no example in this book for small children. I'll be more careful next time - there definitely are cute "Eloise" books out there but this one was dreadful. If you're a big fan, read it through completely first to see it it's a fit. I must say that I was horrified. ... Read more

This book was purchased for a ten year old lad as a Birthday gift.The young lad had the book open and was reading it within thirty minutes of receipt.He is a avid reader and had read the author's earlier book of the same series and wanted this title as soon as it came available.
Kidnapped
Totally AWESOME!!! It was a refreshment from all those other books I've read. The escapes were cool also. Ya know what, I'm hoping that someone in the movie buisness is reading this and they turn this whole series into a movie!

This book was really great. I love all the books in this series!

Elating Adventure Story with Twists and Turns at Every Page
This book is a fast paced adventure story about two fugitive kids. Their parents, had just made front page headlines as convicted traitors. The sentence? Life.After the trial, Aiden and Meg Falconer, their two kids, were sent to Sunnyday Farm, a juvenile correctional facility. They escaped with their lives as Aiden accidently let a flame spread... And in this book, they are on the run from a strange killer, the FBI, Juvenial Corrections, and police departments across the country. To make it worse, their picture has been splashed all over the media nation wide; the FBI have offered a sumptous reward of $25,000 for their capture. Life on the run is tough going... ... Read more

Though the book was alittle to short, it was still packed with plenty of excitment and laughter.

Best series of Young Adult Fiction!
I've read all six and I love them.They are the "edge of your seat" kind of stories.The six books are one long story, though.You can't really read them out of order.It's worth reading all six.
