We
read a lot of books in this family! Every night the girls get to pick out two
books each. They have their favorites that get read again and again, and then
they had some we didn't get past the first four pages. I noticed my
girls had their opinions of what made a good and not so swell book. So I had a
crazy thought, "why not start a review blog and share what these two girls
think?" So I asked the girls. They were all for it. Why not? This would make
sure daddy didn't cop out when it was reading time. (Yes, sometimes
when I am tired, reading a picture book is the last on my list, but I do it for
my girls.) So we started Daddy's Girls Book Reviews. We plan on making
posts that share our reviews and opinions on picture books, chapter books, and
lower-level middle-grade books. We not only post our reviews here on the blog,
we share our reviews on amazon.com, b&n.com, and goodreads.com. Our hope is
to encourage those fantastic authors and illustrator to create more
fabulous books for us to read together.
Bedtime for Monsters
by: Ed Vere
Summary: “In this hilarious bedtime
story, a monster is licking his lips . . . maybe he’s thinking about eating a
bedtime snack? And what if that snack just happened to be you? Gulp! He’s
getting closer and closer . . . and his tummy is rumbling really loudly. But
all this monster actually wants is a sloppy monster-sized goodnight kiss!”
Daddy’s
Girls Review: This
was a book we read again and again! It was engaging and fun. 3-year-old Bean
says, “I thought the monster was going to eat me! It turned out he only wanted
kisses. I liked the monster, he is cute! The art is fun, especially the ‘pickle
thorns’.” We recommend this book to anyone who wants a fun story with a
surprise at the end.
