The Pet Washer by Jennifer Lynn Alvarez

The Pet Washer by Jennifer Lynn Alvarez

By Bob Cherny on April 23, 2012

It has been a long time since I had children of the age of this book’s targeted reader. So, I am not sure I am completely qualified to review it, but if this book had been available to me when I was reading to my children, I would have read this to them.

Review 175: What’s the Trouble in the Forest of Kerfubble? by the Sulhams

Review 175: What’s the Trouble in the Forest of Kerfubble? by the Sulhams

By Shannon Yarbrough on November 26, 2010

The illustrations were what first caught my eye in What’s the Trouble in the Forest of Kerfubble, written and illustrated by a married couple named Roger and Jennifer Sulham who have been together for 22 years. But after reading it, the words are equally engaging. I just wish my niece or nephew were still of age to enjoy a book like this because I would love to give it to them as a gift.

Review 173: Giggle Grump Gurgle by PJ Cowan

Review 173: Giggle Grump Gurgle by PJ Cowan

By LK Gardner-Griffie on November 22, 2010

I always enjoy reviewing children’s books as the holidays approach. Books were such a part of my growing up, I don’t remember ever having been without them. Although it has been argued that my mom taught me to read in self-defense, I don’t ever remember learning how to read, I just did.

Review 145: Sewing a Friendship by Natalie Tinti

Review 145: Sewing a Friendship by Natalie Tinti

By LK Gardner-Griffie on April 29, 2010

This past weekend I had the pleasure of participating in the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books held at UCLA. This particular event is awe inspiring as an author to see the number of people all excited about books.

Review 111: Bogo’s Revenge by Dan Marvin

Review 111: Bogo’s Revenge by Dan Marvin

By LK Gardner-Griffie on September 20, 2009

I know what you’re thinking. Isn’t Dan Marvin one of the reviewers for the LL Book Review? Of course his book is going to be reviewed. It’s an obligation isn’t it?

Review 46: Will and the Soaring Seed by Devin Boone

Review 46: Will and the Soaring Seed by Devin Boone

By LK Gardner-Griffie on December 1, 2008

I first ran across Will and the Soaring Seed while reading some posts on the Lulu Promote Your Book Forum. I was not actually looking for books to review, but doing some research prior to drafting a post promoting the Where in the World is Misfit McCabe? project, which is featured here on the Lulu Book Review under the WITW is MMC tab. As I was reading through the multitude of posts plugging authors’ work, I read a post by author and illustrator Devin Boone and his description captured me enough to click the link to take a look at the children’s book he was promoting. I was glad that I did.
