Three Hens and a Peacock by Lester L Laminack illustrated by Henry Cole

 

Nothing unusual ever happened on the Tuckers farm. Until the day that peacock showed up…

When a glamorous visitor lands unexpectedly in their midst and begins attracting customers, three hardworking hens protest:  How come we do all the hard work and he gets all the attention?  To keep the peace, the wise old hound dog suggests a swap. The hens and the peacock soon find out that others jobs are not always as easy as they seem.  What will happen when three gussied-up hens spend the day prancing and parading at passing cars? And will that peacock ever figure out how to lay an egg?

My Review: The Hens were not happy that they had to do all the work while Peacock gets all the attention. Lesson learnt – Be thankful for the gift you have. Don’t ask for somebody else’s gift because you may not have the skills to do what they do with their gift. Henry Cole did a great job with the illustration. The looks on the Hens were really funny looking.

 

Camp K-9 BY Mary Ann Rodman illustrated by Nancy Hayashi

Roxie and her fellow dog campers are headed to Camp K-9 for all kinds of doggy fun. But Roxy has a secret: she brought her blanket in her Pooch Pouch. If the other campers find out, they will call her a puppy. Even worse, a mean Standard Poodle named Lucy seems determined to cause trouble and if Lucy sniffs out her secret, Roxy will really be in the doghouse.

All through the Camp K-9 activities, from Mutt Hutt high-jinks to Chow Hall chow-downs, from Splash Pals to Pup & Paddle, from building bone and stick houses in Barks & Crafts, to fur-raising tellings of The Haunted Mail Truck around the campfire, Roxie and her friends cower from the fearsome Lucy. Then Roxie discovers that Lucy has a secret, too…

My Review: Every child had a blanket when they were young. I held on to mine till I was 20. I laid it at the foot of my bed…lol!

Roxie was finding it hard to let go of her blanket when she was sent off to Camp. She’s worried the other dogs will discover her secret. Only to find out that Lacy had a big secret of her own. Nancy Hayashi did a great picture illustration.

 

Bring On the Birds written and illustrated by Susan Stockdale

Mymcbooks, a customer just told us your review on ‘Bring On the Birds was helpful to them while shopping on Amazon. Oct 27th, 2012

Birds come in all sorts of interesting shapes, sizes, and colors and many of them can do amazing things as well. Can you imagine…

Dancing birds, Diving birds, Hanging birds, Hiding birds… They’re all real!

In her latest book, noted author-illustrator Susan Stockdale introduces young readers to both exotic and familiar birds in energetic rhyming text. The bright, bold colors and crisp, clean lines of Stockdale’s birds, depicted in their natural habitats, can’t help but grab your attention. An after word identifies each animal and tells a little bit about it and where it lives.

My Review: What a great way to introduce readers to the exotic and familiar birds in s simple rhyming text, with vibrant and exciting colors. Towards the end of the story, Susan Stockdale gives an educational background and descriptive text of the different type of birds she listed in her book. A must have for classroom teaching.
