I should mention that whilst I gave Wonder Woman a perfect score...it is not a perfect film. It's just something that takes you through so many emotions and has a strong message behind it all, not just about women being strong and independent etc. It's all about fighting for what you believe in, facing fears head on and overcoming them if especially if you are fighting for something that you are passionate about, or something you truly believe in.

This film has its fault but personally they were overlooked because the rest of the film made up for it in my opinion. I don't expect others to score it as generously as I have.

This vibrant, engaging and detailed book will keep you and your little ones busy for hours hunting down the over 500 objects to look for. I looked at this first so I could guide my little one and became instantly engrossed in the small details and an additional storyline that I could pick up. My favourite must be the school, so many different ideas all on a double page spread. Although the main aim is to find Ladybug for Daisy the extra panel gives the re-readability and then when your little one progresses the independent means to keep coming back to the book. My little one was spotted reading it to her dolls. Definitely recommended.

Tell Me a Mitzi

Tell Me a Mitzi by Lore Segal has three stories within one about Mitzi and her younger brother and their daily tales. The tales are a little slices of life with whimsy, a touch of fantasy, and a lot of repetition. The stories were a little long, my mind wandered, and I suspect that would be true with some children too. Mitzi was clever, independent, sneaky, and demanding. She and her brother kept their poor mother hopping! Children will relate to her and enjoy her antics, even if the telling of those antics is less than inspiring.

I received this book from NetGalley via Dover Publications in exchange for an honest review.
