| David Aguilar's "Planets, Stars, and Galaxies: A Visual Encyclopedia of Our Universe" is a beautiful and well-done book that does a very good job giving a general overview of the latest astronomical knowledge. This book even includes the latest on the new designation of dwarf planets and Pluto's demotion.
The book is full of beautiful photos and computer illustrations of the planets, nebulae, neutron stars, and galaxies. These illustrations really bring the book to life. They are ... Read More: |

| The book indicates that the Taj Mahal is a "muslim mosque" which is quite a stretch. The Taj Mahal complex does include a mosque but the iconic Taj Mahal is not a mosque. I may white it out, I hate errors.
The photographs are lovely; but I am concerned the other facts may be erroneous too. |

| I can relate to kids who don't like their vegetables. I've been slow in coming around myself. As a kid, I was known to pull the old switcharoo and hide the veggies in the nearest napkin. "Night of the Veggie Monster" uses humor, inventive illustrations, and descriptive language in an attempt to reach kids who don't like the green stuff.
The story is told from the perspective of our unnamed protagonist and veggie disliker. Upon receiving his dinner plate containing three peas, his "we've ... Read More: |

| I FOUND THIS BOOK MADE CLEVER USE OF ALLITERATION AND LANGUAGE BUT THOUGHT IT WAY TOO, TOO MUCH VERBIAGE. THE UNEVEN PACE AND AT TIMES FORCED, LANGUAGE MADE THE BOOK A BIT UNWIELDY AND TOO LONG FOR ITS ILK.
MY ALMOST 4 1/2 YEAR OLD GRANDSON, JACOB FOUND CERTAIN LETTERS MORE CAPTIVATING THAN OTHERS AND WENT BACK TO SOME FOR A SECOND LOOK BUT BOTH OF US WERE NOT OVERLY THRILLED WITH THE LENGTH OF THIS ALPHABET/LANGUAGE BOOK AND I, A RETIRED PRE-SCHOOL TEACHER THOUGHT THAT "MISCHIEVIOUS" WAS ...

| This is a great little board book for infants. We all enjoy the cute rhymes that match each picture. I think our daughter connects with the actions of the monkeys. The text on each page is very brief so it can keep pace with a young baby's short attention span. Great book! |

| 168.Ten Flashing Fireflies by: Philemon Sturges March 01, 1997 |

 |
|
| This is a wonderful book with FABULOUS nighttime illustrations. It is recommended for 4-8, but my 22-month old loves it and loves to count along with it. She asks for it again and again and even recites bits of it! It is about 2 children catching fireflies, and you also see a host of nocturnal animals as they appear as the dusk fades to dark. At the end the children release them and count them as they fly away. Very simple poetry, but read slow (!) or you will easily become tongue tied. One note: while it is a WONDERFUL ... Read More: |

This book is a great place to fule a child's interest in the night sky and our place in this vast universe. |

| Bread Comes to Life is a fascinating look at how a loaf of bread is made. Yes, bread. And it's made from scratch. It's a fascinating process.
The reader views the stunning photographs of different kinds of bread and the progression of sowing wheat, watch sprouts shoot from the rich earth, and then the wheat grows tall and strong. When the wheat is ripe, it is gathered and rubbed in a threshing box. The seeds are then ground into flour and the baker is ready to make bread! The photographs in Bread Comes to Life are ...
