Review & Description

Mercy Watson to the Rescue

To Mr. & Mrs. Watson, Mercy is not just a pig–she's a porcine wonder. And to the portly and good-natured Mercy, the Watson's are an excellent source of buttered toast, no to mention that buttery-toast feeling she gets when she snuggles in to bed with them. This is not, however so good for the Watsons' bed. BOOM! CRACK! Welcome to the wry and endearing world of Mercy Watson.

Mercy Watson Goes for a Ride

Mr. and Mrs. Watson's porcine wonder, Mercy, loves nothing more than a ride in the car. It takes a fair amount of nudging and bribing and a "You are such a good sport, darling" to get the portly pig out of the driver's seat, but once the convertible is on the road, Mercy loves the feel of the wind tickling her ears and the sun on her snout.

Review & Description

Oscar Wilde, abanderado del Aes­thetic Movement y gran artífice de la prosa inglesa, escribió una serie de cuentos infantiles famosos por su belleza literaria y su calidad mo­ral. Estos cuentos son, por una parte, pequeñas joyas literarias, «estudios de prosa» en palabras de su autor, y, por otra, contie­nen un alto ideal moral centrado en la idea de que la vida no vale nada sin la caridad. Para el propio Wilde, estos cuentos fantásticos están diri­gidos a «todos aquellos que han conservado sus facultades infantiles de sorprenderse y de gozar, y que además encuentran sencillas las más sutiles maravillas». Wilde quería agradar tanto a los niños como a los adultos que conservan fresca su capacidad de maravillarse, y reivindicaba, además, para el artista, un derecho ilimitado sobre su arte. El objetivo del escritor de «realizar en determinada materia su idea inmaterial de la belleza, y también transformar una idea en un ideal» está plenamente logrado en esta serie de maravillosos cuentos, llenos de delicadeza y nobles sentimien­tos.

El libro cuenta con un cómodo índice interactivo e incluye:

El ruiseñor y la rosa
El príncipe feliz
El amigo fiel
El gigante egoísta
El famoso cohete
Old Bishop´s
Ego te absolvo
El joven rey
El cumpleaños de la infanta
Poemas en prosa

Review & Description

Quest for Light brings the Magi to life as we join in their harrowing adventure across Persia in search of the one, true God. Appealing to the Magi through His star, God called upon these warrior priests to be among the first people to learn of the Messiah's birth. Our journey takes us along The Silk Road, the first century's information super-highway, where we meet the soldiers, merchants, and other travelers whose lives intersect with the Magi and their companions. By sharing the Magi's experience, we come to understand why they deserted their families and risked their lives to undertake a long journey in search of a foreign king. Just as we face many obstacles today in coming to know God, we will also learn how the Magi's faith and determination enabled them to overcome fierce storms, bandit attacks, and encounters with evil spirits. Faithful followers of Zoroaster, the Magi undergo intense soul searching and spiritual turmoil when God intervenes in their lives. Based on Scripture and historical accounts of the era, Quest for Light provides a fresh and unique perspective on the events and circumstances surrounding Christ's birth. The significance of God's star and the role of the Magi are highlighted in the Christmas miracle of God coming to live among men, as baby born to a virgin. Read more

Review & Description

Lord Arkus of Blackriver Castle readily admits that he is a villain and sees no reason why it should stop him from being the protagonist of this book. After all, Prince Kellemar, an aspiring hero, has defeated him in a rather questionable way. Bent on revenge, Arkus attempts to capture a powerful evil spirit who would make him nearly invincible, but a last-minute mistake leaves him with a sparkling instead a goody-goody spirit that helps heroes, watches over little children, and messes up villains plans. Bound to Lord Arkus for five years of service and sworn to act in his best interests, the sparkling is not easy to get rid of, and of course his understanding of best interests is quite different from what Lord Arkus has in mind.

Review & Description

When Granny Hammy finds Bloated Goat face down in her front yard's drainage ditch, her grandson Cocky Doodle thinks nothing of it. In fact, he says that’s just another normal day for his best friend. But when they discover that Bloated Goat has little black Xs for eyes and is even more bloated than normal, they realize it is much more serious.

Come join the humorous adventure filled with jewel thieves, a despondent wolf, an alligator gangster, a kingdom of hungry mushrooms, a shocking skunk wedding, and a mysteriously powerful chameleon known as Crazy Ned.

But don’t take my word for it. Read the following fake quotes for more convincing words:

"This is one the funniest books about bloated goats and talking animals I've ever read." - A random, imaginary kid

"If I was stuck on a deserted island with nothing but this book, I'd probably read it at least once." - An important kid, possibly your best friend or son or daughter

And if you prefer real quotes, here you go:

“I decided to take a chance on your book after reading your post. Heck, it's only ninety-nine cents, right? I called my nine year old daughter over for what I thought would be a short picture book. I'll be honest. I wasn't expecting much but I hoped she'd get a good chuckle out of it. I opened up the book and was surprised to find that it's a chapter book. Hmm! We dove in. We read through the first ten chapters and my daughter never stopped laughing. She loved it! (And I had to stop more than once to compose myself as well. I actually had tears in my eyes I was laughing so hard.) So far it's an easy and enjoyable read. The characters are hilarious and the situations they encounter are wholly unexpected. We can't wait to finish it tomorrow.” – M. Jacobs, a Kindle Discussions contributor

“LOL. I just finished it. It cracked me up! Definitely worth the dollar.” – Lexi, a Kindle Discussions contributor Read more

Review & Description

My Princess Bible is based on the popular format of My Pajama Bible. The new board book combines princess-like art of women of the Bible with art more reflective of the modern-day princesses who will learn of biblical women.
My Princess Bible shares stories of 19 women of the Bible through a rhyming story and a short takeaway summary in prose. Each story ends with two lines that remind the reader of valuable character traits of a princess; the little princesses are even encouraged to recite the learning of the biblical princess using her name in the blank instead: “________ is God’s special princess; ________ is sad when she does something bad” (the takeaway from the story of Eve). This format helps children see biblical women as princesses who teach us about godly principles. It also helps reinforce that the little girl reader is special and seen as a princess because she is created by God. The final story (number 20) is taken from Psalm 139 and features the reader as the godly princess. It reminds the reader that princesses are daughters of the King and are loved by God. Little girls will love to read My Princess Bible over and over to learn about God’s princesses. Read more

Review & Description

This adorable carrying case includes three of the best-selling McDuff books and full-color of McDuff stickers - McDuff Moves In, McDuff Comes Home, and McDuff and the Baby.Lovable white pooch McDuff has a real knack for finding his way home--and into readers' hearts. A handy little box with a snap closure and a red handle holds three of Rosemary Wells and Susan Jeffers's quaint, 1930s-style tales about this West Highland terrier, as well as a sheet of nine McDuff stickers. In McDuff Moves In, the resourceful pup bounces out of a dogcatcher's truck and finds his way to a new home with a couple named Lucy and George. He manages to get lost while chasing a rabbit in McDuff Comes Home, but a nice old woman straps him into her motorcycle's sidecar and helps him find home again. "Only child" McDuff is in for a bit of a rude awakening in McDuff and the Baby: "Every day in every way McDuff was happy. But one day a stranger arrived. It was a baby." McDuff needn't have worried. No one can resist his charms, even in competition with a newborn.

These three small read-aloud books, sized just right for a child's hands, are a wonderful introduction to the dreamy, old-fashioned series by two well-loved creators of children's books. (Ages 2 to 5) --Emilie Coulter Read more
