|
by: Jane Yolen, Mark Teague List Price: $15.95 Amazon.com's Price: $11.17 You Save: $4.78 (30%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description This book is now a favorite of my two and half year old daughter. She asks me to read it to her at least once a day. The premise of the story is to show the proper way to say goodnight. The first half of the book shows dinosaurs acting up at bedtime (hmm kind of reminds me of my daughter) and the second part shows dinosaurs saying goodnight nicely. The pictures of the dinosaurs really crack her up. She loves the opening picture of the dinosaur in the tub and the one of the dinosaur holding a toy train. ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 265. The Very Busy Spider Board Book | |
|
by: Eric Carle List Price: $10.99 Amazon.com's Price: $8.79 You Save: $2.20 (20%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I love this book! I am a third grade teacher and I use this book every October in my Spider unit. No matter how many times the class has heard it, they're eager to hear it again. Part of its charm is being able to feel the "sliky thread" as the web is being built. I love that it comes as a board book so I can let my 17 month old son enjoy it on his own. A great book to read at the end of a busy day. Read Reviews and Description

| 268. Growing Up It's a Girl Thing: Straight Talk About First Bras, First Periods, and Your Changing Body (It's a Girl Thing) | |

by: Mavis Jukes, Debbie Tilley List Price: $10.00 Amazon.com's Price: $8.00 You Save: $2.00 (20%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I was extremely disappointed in this book, given the glowing reviews it has received here. The introduction describes the author's fond memories of her uninhibited mother asking her to fetch sanitary napkins, walking naked around the house, and positioning her breasts in her bra. Perhaps this book is best suited to the daughters of similarly uninhibited women. I found the semi-burlesque description embarrassing, and worried my daughter will feel deprived because her mommy values a modicum of privacy. The cartoonish ...

by: Dr. Seuss List Price: $14.95 Amazon.com's Price: $10.47 You Save: $4.48 (30%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I bought this book for my six year-old this past Christmas. She has recently fallen in love with Dr. Seuss books, and poetry in general. And this book, along with other Seuss books, gives her great joy. We read it together, out loud, enjoying the scan and ryhme of the words and sentences. And on that level, it's one of her favorites. But after we read it, we talk about the concepts behind it, how "a person's a person, no matter how small", and how Horton realizes the inherent dignity in all life, regardless of whether ...
