graveyardgremlin (7194 KP) rated Jurassic Park (Jurassic Park, #1) in Books

The book is good, but the movie is better
A rare case where the movie is better than the book. I like the changes they made, especially Lex, who in the book is not only brat, which I could handle, but she's stupid as f*** too. I don't think most eight-year-olds are quite this idiotic. Otherwise, it's a good book and I did enjoy the information that expanded onto what the movie was limited to provide.

I received this book for review
I found this to be a wonderful little tale following 24 hours in the life of a newborn lion cub.
Every gorgeously illustrated page is packed with images of savannah birds and creatures to spot with a helpful picture guide inside the front and back covers for what they are. My 8yr old thoroughly enjoyed going back and forth through the pictures and then asking for more information of each of the animals he had found.
Highly recommended, both informative and entertaining.

I use Facebook to keep up with friends and groups that I belong too. You can get addicted and look every few hours to see what people have posted and people run their life by it and get upset if they cannot get on. It is very useful for information but I don't like that it also reads your computer so if you are looking up something on google for example it then appears on your Facebook page as an advert. Big Brother is watching you all the time.

Will read again
Contains spoilers, click to show
When reading this story, you feel like you need a intro book to fully understand the back story. While the main characters do build, and you end up liking them. There is a lot left to unfold. Since this is just book one, I have hopes with book two coming out in a couple months. That things will really spice up. Due to the ending with a good amount of drama. One things for sure, I will be rereading it before starting book two.
Sara Cox (1845 KP) rated The Grizzly Mother (Mothres of Xsan #2) in Books
Feb 24, 2020
What a beautifully illustrated book! This books follows a grizzly mother bear with her two cubs from hibernation to the next season’s hibernation. It teaches children about different aspects of the grizzly bear’s life in different seasons and their interactions with the Gitxsan community.
I love how it has definitions of words that children might not know (e.g. metabolism).
I think more information about the geographical locality and the Gitxsan would make this book so it is more accessible to children more globally. Afterall, who wouldn’t want to learn about grizzly bears?
