Ten Little Tricksters

Ten Little Tricksters

Halloween has arrived and excitement is stirring. Little children are sure to find joy within these pages. Little Halloweeners are bustling through the streets, collecting treats and sporting their costumes. Excitement fills the neighborhood.

Little tykes learn to count with each passing page as verse in rhyme holds their attention. Ten Little Tricksters written by Penelope Anne Cole and illustrated by Kevin Collier is a fun and educational book for toddlers and those children who are just learning to read.  A lovely book for small children.

I give it ten yummy treats for entertainment, great illustrations and educational content.

Prairie Dog Play Days

Margot Finke’s new picture book –  available on her website and on Amazon

Prairie dogs that play, stinkers that prey and birds that rule the sky; that’s what these pages are about.  Margot Finke, author of many children’s stories and works of literature, has written another enchanting book of rhyme. Her nonfiction characters depict animals of North America that are sure to please a child’s wonderment.

Prairie Dog Play Days is an educational fun read for kids. The beautifully detailed illustrations by Kathy Iler will capture a child’s interest in an instant, and the whimsical rhymes will no doubt keep them reading.

Margot Finke’s book includes enhanced vocabulary words and additional information about the animals at the end of the book.  This is a wonderful resource for classroom use or a book to cherish in a child’s library.  Either way, this delightful read will be an asset to any library for children.

I give Prairie Dog Play Days five ***** stars for content, creativity, and beautiful illustrations.
