By Alma Hammond Book Description:- Bo the Bat wears a top hat, rides a bike, and loves to chat. But when Bo comes near, children hide in fear. Bo only wants to have some fun, trick-or-treat like everyone. Ava Review (a four year olds opinion):- This book is about Bo the Bat, he wants to make friends and Bo is cute and likes candy too. Mummy Review: I am always looking for books that teach you something new and BO the Bat is a little treasure of a story. Bo just wants to make friends and go trick or treating. The problem is everyone is scared of her, through her bravery Bo sets out to inform the children that she is not scary but in fact a fascinating mammal. A well-illustrated and fun story that really does open your eyes to the importance of our bats. My Halloween loving daughter has asked to read it three times already! lucky it is a great book.

Mummy Review: Wow, the images in this book are breathtaking, the kids and I have literally looked at this five times in a row! What a brilliant book, not only is this an excellent alphabet book to read with my younger daughter, my older son who loves anything ocean related was really impressed that this author focused on the more unusual sea creatures. I mean who knew there was something called a Red Lipped Batfish (I didn’t, my son did). Fun vibrant images and interesting facts weaved through out I am definitely looking forward to seeing what’s next for Craig Macnaughton. 10/7/2019 0 Comments Motivational gem of a book.Cutie Sue Wins the Race
by Kate Melton (Author) Book Description:- Cutie Sue, an adorable little girl, finds out that her school is about to organize a fun running competition that she definitely wants to win. Yet, her road to victory wouldn’t be an easy one. Will Sue manage to become the winner of the race? Mummy Review: I am always looking for books that give great life lessons to my kids, this is when I stumbled across ‘Cutie Sue Wins the Race’. This book is about a girl called Cutie Sue, when her school decides to do hold a race, she decides she is going to win it, even though she is not sure how. With her father’s help and some fantastic practical steps (told in a rhyming format and beautiful illustrations) this book not only encourages your child to work hard to achieve what they want, this little gem encourages your child to take care of their body and highlights the benefits of outside time. I am looking forward to seeing what other books Kate Melton has on offer. Christians Review (written by him, with no editing):- I enjoyed reading this book; I liked how it showed if you work at something you can make anything happen. Nice pictures. |
AuthorMy name is Katie, homeschooling mum of two amazing kids (age 3 and 7), this blog is my musings - I am no way an expert in any subject but I have a passion for helping my kids to be all they can be. I didn't imagine myself being a teacher to my children - but after painfully witnessing my oldest (after a year in school) become withdrawn, anxious, stressed, negative and underweight due to his school environment, I pulled him out. Now I have a vibrant, happy, healthy and funny kid who loves learning again......have we fixed everything? NO but are we trying YES. Archives
