    Elf is a musical based on the motion picture of the same name, with a score by Matthew Sklar and...

The Misadventures of Michael McMichaels book is about another moral lesson that we need to teach lesson. This story about an borrowed bracelet but do your children or child know the different between borrowing and stealing?

This story plot put Michael in a predicament. Does he know the different or not? You will see that he does something he thinks is justified as he not harming anyone one and has learned lesson about what did in book one. If you have not that is a good book to read a well and is the beginning of the series.

Tony Penn does a good job with this moral lesson and bringing it out for children to learn and understand the concept. He also does it where young children can learn and enjoy the book. This is a good book for parents as well as young children and readers.

The picture are done well. I do enjoy the misadventures that the young Michael goes though. I can see young children learning from this book and the moral lesson behind the book.

Holy.... Crap....

I loved absolutely everything about this book, so much so that I finished it in one sitting. I listened to the audiobook while I followed along with the physical book and honestly, I think that was the best way to go about this book since it is a full cast and told in the format of only dialogue since they are all voice recordings.

The plot is phenomenal and pulls you from the first page, the characters are all amazing but hands down my favorite was definitely the mysterious "Sir".

For this being a book with all dialogue I could picture every detail of the story and honestly that was probably why I loved it so damn much.... and that ending of I already ordered the rest of the series.

Adam Raccoon works every day in the forest with King Aren, but when the circus comes to town one day, Adam is enchanted and decides to run away to join the circus. Will that be a good idea? What will happen if Adam changes his mind?

This picture book is an obvious retelling of Jesus’s parable of the prodigal son, but that isn’t really an issue because the fresh settings gives it fresh life and drive home the point of God’s love and forgiveness anew. The colorful pictures will help hold kid’s attention in this fun book.
