And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street
And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street

That’s Quite an Imagination You’ve Got There
In this book, we meet Marco, a young boy whose father is always encouraging him to observe the world around him to see what he can see. However, his trip home from school on Mulberry Street is rather boring. All he sees is a horse pulling a broken-down wagon. But what if, instead, he said he saw a new cart…drawn by a zebra. No, that’s not special enough. Where will Marco’s wild story stop?

I didn’t read this book too much as a kid, but even as an adult, it is easy to fall into the classic Seuss rhythm and rhyme. It does get a little repetitive since he repeats Mulberry Street so often, but that’s the only real complaint. Marco’s imagination is so much fun, although I appreciated that he told the truth in the end. The illustrations are classic Seuss as well, and the caricatures of everyone are so much fun. Fans will also enjoy seeing that the elephant looks remarkably like Horton. If you can track this book down, you and your kids will enjoy it.

Heaton is on point as Nicholson gives good account
In an era where comic adaptations are starting to become a thing again, this attempt at barman leaves little to imagination. Both Keaton and Nicholson give extremely good performances on what was a fairly lacklustered storyline. All a bit predictable. That being said, the performance of Nicholson took it above and beyond.

OK, so 8 days later ( there should be a clue there) and I'm finally finished. Francine Lasala is a great writer with an amazing imagination but i really struggled with this book and until i got about half way, i even toyed with the idea of not finishing it, only my need to know what the hell was going on with Mina and who's real and who's not made me continue. I feel really awful not liking the book because so many people have loved it, but sadly its not for me

Well Written Characters
The Joy of Amy Tan
I've never read a novel that's inspired such emotion as Amy Tan's The Joy Luck Club has. Tan has created some of the most gorgeous characters I've ever been introduced to, and the way she writes allows every reader to have a vivid image of the places she describes. Every little detail fuels more and more imagination. Not only is the book a MUST READ but Amy Tan is definitely one of the greatest authors I've ever read from.

The start of something special
To date Maria V Snyder has 9 books in the chronicles of Ixia and they are truly spectacular. It starts off with this one, and if highly suggest buying her books in sets of three, as I can guarantee you'd want the next one immediately.
The pure creativity, imagination and plot twists and nothing sort of genius. They keep you wondering and guessing what is going to happen next.
These books are my friends, they have supported me through a lot in my life.
