Amazing detailed animation (1 more)
Good story
To infinity and beyond!
Well I was surprised when I heard they were doing Toy Story 4. It's been 9 years since the 3rd which was a fitting end for the franchise. This is the gift that keeps on giving. It's amazing the amount of detail in the animation, textures, lighting, everything looks so realistic. Along with a great heartfelt story with plenty of laughs along the way. This is a great family film that is fun for all ages.

I am still reeling from this book. I genuinely think this is one of the best books I've ever read in my life. The story is so intricate and incredibly thought out. I am amazed. I loved the characters and the importance of each one, no matter how small. I can't say too much about the story itself without giving things away and that's the last thing I want to do. I just need everyone to read this book so you can understand how great it is.

Hilarious And Beautifully Illustrated
This is a wonderful way to teach children about idioms. Every page has an idiom not only listed but also beautifully illustrated and giving its literal meaning. The illustrations are hilarious and sweet, especially as they all feature birds or animals. My favourites were ‘Bring home the bacon,’ ‘No spring chicken’ and ‘Let the cat out of the bag.’
The meaning of the idiom, along with an example of its usage in a sentence, is written at the bottom of each page, inverted, and in minute lettering, so that it can be referred to only when you really try to read it. Unfortunately, the writing was so small that I had problems reading it at all.
“Birds Of A Feather” concludes with an explanation of how a particular idiom originated, and encourages readers to find the origins of other idioms, as the words that are used in an idiom are generally not meant literally, however, neither are they a random group of words thrown together.

As far as style goes, Spencer has a beautiful and easy style that seems to seep into her mind like a daydream. It's so easy to read through her works, that you are over before you even realize you have begun. Her characters are solid and real, the type of people you can imagine walking out onto your front porch and seeing no matter where you are from.
I loved the humor and realness that seemed to come naturally to this story. I found myself laugh just as often as I found myself cringing in frustration at the stubbornness of the characters.
However, this novel was so boring, I had a hard time completely it. While the words flowed quickly from the pages, the story itself held no interests whatsoever. It felt like a peak into someone's diary of their everyday life or watching a lifetime movie. It was so true to life (minus the famous country star scenario), that it just didn't seem to have any appeal or magic.
I feel that giving it three stars may be to harsh, and yet at the same time, I cannot justify giving it more.
