Ebook - Terry Treetop and the Little Bear Review


Ebook - Terry Treetop and the Little Bear Review


The newest (5th) book in the Terry Treetop series is set in spring!  Yeah spring is here (finally!)  In this book, Terry Treetop is about to play with a little bear that came into his back yard, when the bear's mother calls him back to the woods. But something went wrong and the little bear is in danger.  Can Terry Treetop save the day again!?

This book is full of beautiful illustrations and a fun story sure to engage children of many ages.  Besides being a fun story, this book will teach your child about all of the signs of spring, and about how bears leave their den in this season.

The book is good for children aged 2-8 and children of all ages will love the vibrate illustrations and engaging text!  I loved this book and so did my 5 year old son, Jachob.  I would recommend this for parents and educators.  This would be a great book to read to help introduce Spring or even to talk about bears and hibernation.

Ebook - Abigail and the Sahara Adventure Review


Ebook - Abigail and the Sahara Adventure


Another Abigail book!  Abigail finds a magical bicycle in her grandparents' old house, and this time, the bicycle takes her to the magnificent Sahara Desert.  As Abigail explores the Sahara desert, the readers are introduced to many great ideas and lessons.

The first thing I loved about this book, was how it introduced kids to the Sahara Desert!  To many kids, this would be a new place and concept to learn about and I loved how seamlessly the kids are taught about new places in these stories!  The stories are fun AND educational and it is done very well!

The illustrations are well done and very bright.  They help to engage the younger readers (listeners) and add more dimension to the new places that they are learning about!

Overall, the story is cute and educational and I would definitely recommend this book for young children!

Ebook - Terry Treetop Saves The Dolphin Review.


Terry Treetop Saves The Dolphin

Love Terry Treetop!  Such a great series for kids!  This is actually the fourth book in the Terry Treetop series. In this book, Terry Treetop goes camping with his parents to a marine nature reserve. He sees a group of dolphins and wants to play with the little dolphin, Dido, but something goes very seriouslly wrong!

The book goes deeper to teach about animals, habitats, how important it is to be aware of the environment, and human resposibility with their environment.

As usual with the series, the illustrations are very well done and flow with the book perfectly.  Because of the vivid pictures, and easy to follow story line, young children are drawn to the book, but the message is great for older children as well!  Great for animal lovers or young children who are just beginning to understand how humans and animals need to share the land (and sea!)

Highly reccomended for young children!

Ebook - Green Smoothies: The Weight Loss & Detox Secret Review


Green Smoothies: The Weight Loss & Detox Secret: 50 Recipes for a Healthy Diet (Special Diet Cookbooks & Vegetarian Recipes Collection Book 3)
This was a fantastic book! It was more than just a recipe book too! I loved that it included why the smoothies were good for you and a LOT of that information!

The book contained many things like:
What is a Green Smoothie?
What’s So Good About Green Smoothies?
Nutritional Value and Health Benefits of Green Smoothies
The Healthiest Weight Loss Program Methodology
Types of Green Smoothies
Tasty Tips

 I found it was a good overall introduction to Green Smoothies and an awesome recipe book. The complete package!  All 50 recipes included were interesting, and easy to make at home.  Some of my favourites were: Kale Blueberry Smoothie, Minty Avacado Smoothie, and Chocolate Fudge Smoothie.

There was definitely enough information in this book to understand the importance of this kind of eating and lots of options to try!
You can buy this book on Amazon here: Amazon.com

Ebook - Stretching the Borders~Yael Shachnay


http://www.amazon.com/Stretching-Borders-Yael-Shachnay-ebook/dp/B00MKB14MK
The book opens with Naomi and her ordinarily life with her husband and two teenage children. She works for a newspaper and focuses her spare time on cooking and art. They live in an apartment in the center of Tel Aviv. Somehow she becomes enthralled with her neighbours as she becomes almost obsessed with watching their lives through the windows that look into their apartment. She slowly, but completely, gets pulled into leading a double life full of lies and secrets. We also discover secrets of her past.

The book brings about many questions about relationships, infidelity, trust, guilt, and when to draw the line. The big question I found is what lies damage the most and when does holding back things that hurt actually end up hurting more. Naomi's own world is shaken and she has to face the hurt that secrets and lies can bring.

I really wasn't sure what kind of story to expect when the book started, but Naomi was a pretty easy character to connect with at the beginning. She was an ordinary mother and cared for her family. As Shachnay pealed back the layers of her character, it was easy to keep reading!

Overall, I was able to get through the book quickly and easily.  It was a good light read and I definitely reccomend it.  It is available on Amazon (.com and .ca)! Buy the book on Amazon!
