Bubble Trouble board book (1992)

This book is a tongue-limbering, vocabulary-stretching, highly hilarious story that must be read aloud. The rollicking rhythm and quirky characters are delightful, and there is just enough suspense to be compelling but not distressing. Picked by a 3-year-old from the library shelf (likely for i...

Bubble Trouble (1992)

The lovely silliness of this book is matched by Mahy's clever wordsmithery and by the cadence of the rhyming text. Mahy's narration would give Prelutsky a run for his money! Dunbar's illustrations don't hurt, either (the mixed media is a great touch). Toddlers may not sit through it (the text i...

Alchemy (2004)

I first read this book back when I was younger (right now I'm 20) and all I knew was that the ending confused me. I had no idea of what actually happened. I tried to look for the book again years later but couldn't find it. I knew the title was Alchemy and the cover had a girl under a tree with s...

The Changeover (1994)

From all the excited chat I'd read about this book, I was expecting it to be the seminal YA romance.

Throw in some meditation and '...

Organ Music (2010)

I'm not entirely sure what to think of this one.Theme, and some of the action, is more suitable for an early-teen audience, while the font and layout seem to aim it towards a younger age group.Two boys jump into a car, which drives itself into a forest. There, they become victims of a scientist, ...

Aliens In The Family (1987)

The beginning was too slow and the ending was too fast. And who would write a book on this kind of stuff?? I probably would have liked this more if I could have just picked it up, read in an hour, and then put it back down and moved on with my life... but we spent three months reading it in class...
