Ode to a Pug: NOT the VET

Image
If you have a pet you know what a challenge it is to get them to the vet sometimes if they are anything like my cats. Pug from the beloved Ode to a Pug series does NOT want to go to the vet. Thank you Jill Rosen for partnering with myself and The Children's Book Review for this post. The review is my honest thoughts.

Melanie Moore is out with a new series called Adventures with Allie and Friends. Join me for an interview with Ms. Moore to learn more about her and this book! Huge thank you to Ms. Moore and The Children’s Book Review for helping with this tour! Tell us about this book. Why do you want to write it as a series? Adventures With Allie and Friends is meant to utilize curiosity, creativity, imagination, and social interaction skills as Allie takes her readers on various adventures throughout her community with each book as a different adventure for Allie and her friends.  What inspired this story? Throughout my 20-year career as an educator, I was asked to write small social stories and create activities for various teachers and students. I realized I had a passion for using creativity to support both teachers and students. It was these teachers and students who helped me discover my passion for writing and creativity. What are you hoping children take away from this book? I wa...

The Maze Trilogy by Samuel Warren Joseph & Phil Proctor

Image
Thank you to The Children’s Book Review for including me on this tour. This tour  is sponsored by Samuel Warren Joseph & Phil Proctor. The review and opinions expressed in this post are based on my personal views. BOOK REVIEW  These three books are ideal for ages 9-12 readers who love puzzles and The Magic Treehouse series. Each book is a continuation of the one before so they need to be read in order. Twins Tyler and Tess are transported to a magical world where they much solve riddles in order to escape evil Queen Zebra and get back home. It is good for early chapter book readers as each book is around 70 pages. I would like to see pictures in the book but the writing also makes it easy to use your imagination. If your reader enjoys magic worlds with different characters and puzzles, they will enjoy this series!
