When travelling, kids don’t want to see things, they want to do things. Scavenger Guides Chicago addresses that need by offering a guidebook designed and written for kids. This guidebook is meant to be used more than consulted and, ideally, become a lasting memento of a trip to the windy city. Challenges and questions about popular top tourist sites and activities encourage involvement. A travel guide, game, journal, photography course, and souvenir all in one.

A recent fascination with my own backyard birds has led to a fun summer hobby. I now have six bird feeders in my yard, and have purchased 3 various books all about birds. I even made a trip to the zoo recently well, just for the birds. So, I immediately began searching Lulu for good bird books. Although I found several-mostly coffee table photo type books-one of the best is called BIRDS, and it’s put out by a publisher calling itself TheTeachersDesk.info.

With my recent issues concerning the creation of the book cover for my own next book, it seemed only fitting that Todd Fonseca’s The Time Cavern would be my next book review. Todd used 3D software and Photoshop to create his cover, and I must say it is outstanding. I have only seen it online, so I can only imagine how spectacular it must look in hand. Congratulations, Todd, on your excellent achievement.
