5-0 out of 5 stars A rich part of this bilingual Canadian's heritage
Volume 2: The Broken Ear (1937), The Black Island (1938), King Ottokar's Sceptre (1942). This is the second instalment of my reviews of each of the seven volumes.
5-0 out of 5 stars A trio of solid Tintin adventures from the late 1930s
Volume 2 of "The Adventures of Tintin" brings together a trio of stories by Herg� from the late 1930s, right before World War II.This is noteworthy because at this point Herg� is refining his attention to cultural detail in these stories, but also starting to get more fanciful and away from what is happening in the real world.You will still find allegorical elements in these stories, but none of the events ripped from the headlines that you saw in previous tales such as "The Blue Lotus."
4-0 out of 5 stars Tin Tin, a literary comic.
I've read a little of the Tin Tin series, enough to make sure they are appropriate for young eyes, but my son loves reading them. They are colorfully illustrated and have lively stories and humor. My son is 11 and still likes to see pictures in his books. As far as that goes, I do too! This is a very fun series and I recommend it especially for kids who complain about reading in general. The Tin Tin series is engaging and fun. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars A Great Guide
This guide is great, because I would not have been able to complete the game without it.This guide shows all of the directions and where the Pokemon are located.It also covers the battle frontier.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great info guide!
this is a great guide if you are stuck or you like repeating games.it shows you all the pokemon in the game and it tells you all the moves they will learn.at the back of the book it tells you all the moves in the game and it tells you what they do.it tells you were the hidden items are like stones, pokeballs and potions.it has a walkthrough that tells you hints.

1-0 out of 5 stars too disapointing
This is a terrible book. If you are into getting only the 1st 200 pokemon in the "hoen" region, this book is okay. But, if you are like me, and you want to get all 386, find another book. The description above says that you can get every pokemon in the game, yet it only lists the 200 in the "hoen" region, while still making refrences to jirachi and deoxys, saying basically that you cant get them in America. So, don't waste your money on this useless piece of garbage and go buy a gameshark. I sat around for 8 days, waiting for it to show up, only to be dissapointed beyond belief at its poor maps, unhelpfull pokedex and very vague item and berry information. SO, dont waste your money on this guide, or the prima guide, just buy a cheating system because I think you would be alot more satisfied and get your moneys worth. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Pippi is an irrepressible, irreverent, and irrefutably delightful nine-year-old girl who lives alone (with a monkey) in her wacky house, Villa Villekulla. When she's not dancing with the burglars who were just trying to rob her house, she's attempting to learn the "pluttification" tables at school; fighting Adolf, the strongest man in the world at the circus; or playing tag with police officers. Pippi's high-spirited, good-natured hijinks cause as much trouble as fun, but a more generous child you won't find anywhere. Astrid Lindgren has created a unique and lovable carrot-topped character, inspiring generations of children to want to Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the Greatest Female Characters Ever Created
It was very empowering for me as a child to read Pippi's adventures.Her independence, common sense, strength, resourcefulness, and compassion were a tremendous inspiration to me and continue to be very commendable qualities.I don't believe much was lost in the translation of these books because the storytelling flows superbly and is exciting, engaging, and enduring.As a youngster, my favorite elements of these stories included Pippi's horde of gold, pet horse, physical strength, fantastic adventures, and red hair.As an adult, I am drawn to the heroine's wisdom and goodness of spirit.For adults who read Pippi as a child, I recommend a revisit to her world for a fresh view of her character as well as delightful reminiscing.This is terrific reading for all ages both girls and boys.
5-0 out of 5 stars Pippi Hardbound
This is a great, well-made and glossy volume of all three books in one!With caricatured illustrations, this is a fine addition for any book collector or family!

5-0 out of 5 stars The Chililug chugger is back...
Pippi Longstocking is a lot of things.She plays with sparklers, she plays with guns, she resists arrest, flaunts her supernatural power, manhandles bothersome adults, insults them and disregards them as silly.She's self-important, arrogant, callous, rude, undignified, and absolutely perfect.Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars complicated read
i purchased go dog go for my son and he loved the spanish version. so i decided to go with green eggs(since i have read it over 50 times)and it was not as easy to follow and the words were a little difficult to relate. i can speak a little spanish and read a little but this book left me struggling.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great bedtime reading for kids ! ! !
I bought it for my three year old son, and I can't express how much joy my little one has every night when he goes to bed, he immediately runs to bed and literally ask my wife or me to start reading. I highly recommend it for all the little ones!! ! !, you won't regret it.

5-0 out of 5 stars It rhymes! Great vocabulary stretcher!
Many translated classics don't have the original flow of the English title. This one does! I read it to my Spanish classes about once a month and have begun leaving out words - because of the repetition, they are all (ages 3 to 18) grabbing more vocabulary, and laugh as they listen.

5-0 out of 5 stars What kid wouldn't want to read about a vampire bunny?
I don't care how old I get, I'm just not going to turn down a chance to read a book about a vampire rabbit, especially if it's told from the point of view of a dog.Good old Harold was pretty much living the good life until the introduction into the household of a cute wittle bunny wabbit the Monroes brought home with them from the movies one night.(Apparently a Dracula fan, the bunny was all settled in to watch the Count do his thing when one of the Monroe kids sat on him in the theater.)Little Bunnicula doesn't really bother Harold at all, since he sleeps all day and doesn't come between him and his treats.Harold's feline friend Chester, on the other hand, doesn't cotton to Bunnicula at all, seeing what no one else seems to notice - this bunny has fangs, and his coloration pattern sometimes makes it look like he's wearing a cape.Reading up on vampires while the Monroes sleep, Chester quickly becomes obsessed with getting this little bat in bunny's clothing out of the house as soon as possible - especially after healthy vegetables begin to show up completely drained of their color.
5-0 out of 5 stars This is a great book!
This is a great book.I have read it more than once.I especially like the white vegetables!I think that both boys and girls will like it.This is an interesting book because it helps you imagine how dogs and cats might think.The author of this book has a good imagination!

5-0 out of 5 stars Bunniculee, Bunnicula, Bunniculee, Bunicula-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Children's librarians have to prepare for certain kinds of questions.When a child walks up to your Reference Desk, you need to be ready to get them the exact book they're looking for at the exact moment that they want it.I get a lot of young kids, mostly girls, who want a good vampire book of their very own.Aside from the usual "Vampire State Building" and "Dracula Is a Pain In the Neck", both by Elizabeth Levy, there's really not a lot out there to recommend wholeheartedly.In fact, nine times out of ten, I find myself suggesting that most accessible of vampirism books, "Bunnicula".It doesn't star a human vampire, but you can hardly blame me.Now just this past week I found myself in the unenviable position of needing to find lots and lots and lots of copies of a single book for the upcoming meeting of my homeschooler bookgroup.And what delightful chapter book did I have enough copies in my library branch to satisfy screaming hoards of homeschooled kiddies?Again, it's "Bunnicula" to the rescue.It may not seem at first glance to have earned itself the moniker of "classic children's book", but I can attest right here and right now that when it comes to lifesaving go-to titles, I'll take "Bunnicula" over "Bridge To Terebithia" or "Are You There God, It's Me Margaret", any day.

Editorial Review

Seventy-five years ago, that most beloved of "silly old bears,"Winnie-the-Pooh, came down the stairs, "bump, bump, bump," on the back of his head,behind Christopher Robin. And now, after generations of children have grown upon stories about Pooh's adventures with his forest friends, the four all-timechildren's classics from A.A. Milne and Ernest H. Shepard have been collected inone hefty, handsome volume for another multitude of generations to enjoy.Gathered together are the poems and tales that celebrate heffalumps, Eeyore'sbirthday, the unbouncing of Tigger, Disobedience, Buckingham Palace, andsneezles. The stories about Pooh getting stuck in Rabbit's doorway, Piglet doinga "Very Grand Thing," and Eeyore losing a tail (and Pooh finding one) aretimeless favorites for children--and grownups--of all ages. Four originalclassics are here, in all their glory: Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Collection of Classic Stories and Poems
Finding a "Winnie the Pooh" book is easy. It all depends what you are looking for. For the many parents and grandparents hoping to read the wonderful stories to younger people the adventures of Pooh, Christopher Robin, Tigger, Eyeore, Piglet, Kanga, Rabbit, Owl and the rest, this will be more than adequate.
5-0 out of 5 stars I am Pooh!
ever since i can remember, my nick name has always been Pooh...because supposedly i am a bear of very litle brain! plus i'm blond! The reason for the nick name was that it is my favourite book in the world, and i never tire of it! Some may think that the name is vulgar, but once you start to read it, you love it more and more. Without doubt one of the best books ever written, if not the best. If you haven't read it, i advise you do, because it is every bit as magical, as everybody thinks it is.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Must~Have Collection for Every Child's Library & the Child~Hearted
This is THE collection to buy.Look no further for the next gift for your child, grandchild, mom-to-be, Pooh-lover, etc. Beautifully done hard cover collection, pretty enough to display on a coffee table, in your library or on your child's shelf.

Arthur's Halloween is about Arthur who is afraid of pretty much everything. When Halloween comes, he is told he has to take his sister. When trick or treating the two get lost behind and D.W. goes in the so-called Witch House, and Arthur has to go get her. The book teaches that you shouldn't judge somebody by what other people tell you. This book is good for kids 4-8. I thought it was an ok book.

When Christopher Robin asks Pooh what he likes doing best in the world, Pooh says, after much thought, "What I like best in the whole world is Me and Piglet going to see You, and You saying 'What about a little something?' and Me saying, 'Well, I shouldn't mind a little something, should you, Piglet,' and it being a hummy sort of day outside, and birds singing."Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars A Winning Book
The tales are lovable, enjoyable and moving, and perhaps the most important thing is that although written for kids, we adults can reflect on the way we live our daily lives. We live through the pages the feelings of all characters fear, amazement, joy, kindness, self-inflicted misery, competitiveness, good times, and most of all, positiveness and passion to enjoy and nature true friendship.We have these feelings and emotions as human beings.There are Rabbits, and Tiggers and Owls and Piglets all around us and we can barely seem to recognize them in our friends or the people we communicate with every day. Illustrations are gorgeous,an outstanding vision of life.
5-0 out of 5 stars childhood favorite
Who doesn't love Winnie The Pooh? Don't answer that. This is an excellent and charming book to use for bedtime stories for children. I grew up with it and I still love it! It endears the simplicity of life and love...and honey.

This story is delightful.We bought it because we were taking our 2.5 yr old along on a ski trip and wanted him to have a silly little story that related to the mountain and skiing (even though he's not on skis yet).Well, it is just that... and more.He's learned a lot, developed an interest in skiing (maybe next year) and always gets a good laugh out of this book!It's also fun that George seems to invent snowboarding - my husband and I got a big kick out of that and have shared the story with many adult friends (isn't everyone a Curious Geroge fan?)!

this book came out in 1979..the end of the 70's.....the end of frog and toad......this book is truly a classic....the 5 stories take me back to when i was 12 years old......i grew up with frog and toad along with the marshall family on land of the lost...and fonzie and ritchie on happy days.........and luke and c3po and r2d2 of star wars.....this book truly is not dated...it's as fresh today as it was in 1979......the last story.."alone"........i really felt it being 12......... ....

4-0 out of 5 stars Frog and Toad are an amazing buy
I have a 3 year old daughter that LOVES this series.The art is very "old" -but in a good way.She likes the story "The Shivers" most of all.You can't beat this series for the price, or the lessons learned.

4-0 out of 5 stars Review by Alaisiah P.S. 39 and Michael P.S. 39
You should read Frog and Toad because they can teach kids a lot of lessons.For example, if you are a kid and you want to learn to be nice to a friend then Days with Frog and Toad is a really good book for you.You'll also learn that sometimes friends aren't nice to each other.So, if you're the kind of reader who wants to learn about relationships then this is a book for you to read.

5-0 out of 5 stars AMAZING ART ANIMATION

5-0 out of 5 stars A fantastic example of concept art for anybody!
Apart from the fact that my copy was close to pocket size, i thought that this book was fantastic. Not only does it come filled with amazing concepts, it also is accompanied with the Lion King Storyline. As an illustrator and student animator, it is a wonderful addition to my resources. The sketches through to the complete full colour images are for any Lion King fan, artists or just someone wanting a beautiful coffee table book. If your from overseas like myself and cannot get these kind of books in Australia, i reccommend Amazon and their associate stores. Buy this, its great.

5-0 out of 5 stars Best of the "The Art Of" series!
I received this book as a birthday present last month. To say the least, Iwas overwhelmed with all the artwork in this book. I love it! The artworkand production animation is breathtaking! It's a really awesome book, I'dget it if I were you! You can't go wrong with "The Art of The LionKing"!!! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars 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.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Stories for kids!
One of the best writers for children and one of the best cartoon creators.

5-0 out of 5 stars 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. A book you can pass down from generation to generation! ... Read more

Editorial Review

Baby bat Stellaluna's life is flitting along right on schedule--untilan owl attacks her mother one night, knocking the bewildered batlet out of her mother's loving grasp. The tiny bat is lucky enough to land in a nest of baby birds, but her whole world has just turned upside down. Literally. Stellaluna's adoptive bird mom accepts her into her nest, but only on the condition that Stellaluna will act like a bird, not a bat. Soon Stellaluna has learned to behave like a good bird should--she quits hanging by her feet and starts eating bugs. But when she finally has an opportunity to show her bird siblings what life as a bat is like, all of them are confounded. "How can we be so different and feel so much alike?" one asks. "And how can we feel so different and be so much alike?" asks another. "I agree," Stellaluna responds. "But we're friends. And that's a fact." Anyone who has ever been asked to be someone they're not will understand the conflicts--and possibilities--Stellaluna faces. This gorgeously illustrated book is sure to be an all-time favorite with readers, whether they've left the nest or not. (Click to see a sample spread. Illustration from Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Friendship is the Compromise of Differences
This is the story of a baby fruit bat, also known as the "flying fox", named Stellaluna who fell off of her mother's belly during an assault on them by an owl, who is bats' natural enemy, as they flew in the night sky. Stellaluna, whose weak wings not being ready to fly yet, finds herself in a bird's nest among chicks. And a beautiful friendship begins as Stellakuna assumes the role of a "good bird" and becomes a member of the family. Soon nature makes them realize how different Stellaluna is from the other birds. Ultimately friendship proves to be the strongest force of nature.

5-0 out of 5 stars This is how much I love Jannell Cannon books...
I bought Stellaluna even before I had a child! I absolutely fell in love not only with the story and message the book conveyed, but also the wonderful and endearing artwork. I have since had a child and purchased all of her books, the latest one being Pinduli. It is the perfect follow-up to her other books.
5-0 out of 5 stars A Tale of Finding our Way
Beautifully illustrated, this story is filled with depth and meaning.The message this book carries is one of great sensitivity:how do we fit in with others who are "different", how do we fit in when sometimes we ourselves feel "different"? Most important, Stellaluna learns to accept and be herself:even when she is different from others.This is not necessarily an easy task at any age, and this tale can be a guide for children (and adults) finding their way to self-love.The story evokes "Zen Shorts" and "The Gift of You, The Gift of Me," two other picture books that are also beacons of light for finding our way, and also both beautifully illustrated, as is "Stellaluna." ...

5-0 out of 5 stars wonderful book
This is an incredible book.The poems are darling and I am not a huge poetry fan.The art work is truly amazing.Hard to believe anyone could be so talented...

5-0 out of 5 stars This is the most complete flower fairies book out there
When it comes to the flower faires by Cicely Mary Barker this one of the most complete.There is so much material here that it would take several hours to really get through it.
5-0 out of 5 stars The Complete Book of the Flower Fairies
This book is beautifully painted, but it would be better if the drawing also includes the background. Some of the Fairies are cropped, so we could not enjoy the beautiful surrounding where it was depicted.
