Editorial Reviews

“A fun, lyrical book written in prose that is easy to read, easy to follow, and fun for the kids to read or listen to as it is read to them. At the end of each book is a list of questions that parents can discuss with their children. As a home school parent, I believe these are great assets.” —The IE Mommy Christine
