I thought this was really cute, so I shared it at my family story time. It wasn't a super hit (just a little too long, I think), but I could tell the audience really felt for Spike and wanted him to succeed. The message is that an ugly dog can have a beautiful heart. Awww.

The premise of this book - that the entire world bows to newborn humans - makes me want to barf. But: after reading it one hundred times, I've come to appreciate the things the author chose to depict and the funky art style. And I sometimes get a little teary-eyed at the end.

Exciting pictures capture the hectic glee of a fair.

This is a story of children who put on the "greatest show on earth' with water (H2o) as their star performer. It is fun, and imaginative, and filled with insights and facts about water.
