Maybe I missed the point. Is it a book about karma? I am not sure. With that said, it really is not something I will be recommending. There is nothing redeeming about this book. I would not put my reputation on the line for this book. If you like it, please tell me why. With most books I do not like, I really do feel bad about it. I understand the hard work that authors and illustrators put into their work. I am a writer […]
Treat Yo’ Self to this perfect Summer read
I’m beginning to think it is a requirement for all Parks and Rec cast-members to write books and I am really OK with that. At this point I think Worst Chris, Rashida Jones and Jim O’heir are the only series regulars who haven’t published! Anyway– this review is mostly going to be Parks and Rec gifs. In the meantime, I am embracing “Treat Yo’ Self” because it will likely be on my tombstone. It’s my “Dy-no-mite!” My “Kiss my grits!” My “Norm!” My “Whatchu talkin’ bout Willis?” My “Yadda […]
I’m Sad…. and that’s okay
Michael Ian Black has created a new book in his “I am” series. I’m Sad is about being sad. But not just about being sad. It is the bad and good about being sad. Flamingo is sad and his two friends (a little girl and a potato) try to cheer him up. Yet, they also talk about that maybe it is okay to be sad sometimes, too. They also let Flamingo know that he is not alone, that everyone feels sad. Even astronauts and potatoes. […]
Gettin’ Bizzy
I am sorry to say, I am not a fan of David Shannon. I can appreciate the hard work that goes into creating his art and his stories, but they have never really been my cup of tea. The illustrations are disjointed and harsh to my eyes. With that said, I know many people who enjoy his works and to them I say, “Fantastic!” Because it is always nice to know someone likes a book (even if it is not one you enjoy). I was […]
Sophie Johnson, Unicorn Expert (Maybe)
Sophie is a unicorn expert. And if you do not believe her, she will tell you. And she does that in Sophie Johnson, Unicorn Expert. She knows everything there is to know about unicorns: what they should do, what they should learn, how they should look, what they should eat, even that their horns grow back if they lose them. Sometimes her mother does not agree with how Sophie teaches them (as mothers do not realize that magic is more important than cleaning up messes). […]
Zita the Spacegirl to the rescue. Sort of……
Zita the Spacegirl is not your parent’s graphic novel. Oh, there are space aliens, portals to other worlds, robots and evil creatures, but there is also a spunky girl who is smart, funny and realistic. Ben Hatke has created a graphic novel that will introduce readers to the genre, but readers will enjoy as well. Aimed at ages eight to 10, both boys and girls can read. Yes, Zita is a girl but she is a tomboy. Her best friend is the goofy, nerdy boy. […]
