I Want To Be A Jedi (DK READERS)
Great gift for learning readers
I purchased this book for my grandson's 7th birthday. He took the book to read immediately and was reading it over and over. He liked that the book had the pronounciation of the names of the "Star Wars" characters and he shared that infomation with his older sisters. The cover and the title appeals to his age and interests. He loved that he could read it himself.

My First Book Of Tracing (Kumon Workbooks)
Great for 3 year olds!!
My son just turned 3 and he loves this book. We are trying to teach him how to write his name and this book has helped so much with teaching him how to make different types of lines. It has colorful pages that are very age appropriate. It has things like small mazes where the child has to take the little boy through the maze to get to the ball or something simple like that. My son just loves these books and it has helped so much. I can't say enough good things about it and wish I could just show you because it is truly amazing!!! I wish the books were not bound so tightly is my only complaint so that the pages open more and that is just a knit picky thing. You won't be disappointed with this book.

Gallop!: A Scanimation Picture Book (Scanimation Books)

Gallop!: A Scanimation Picture Book (Scanimation Books)
Binding: Board book
Manufacturer: Workman Publishing Company
Product Description:
There's never before been a book like Gallop! Employing a patented new technology called Scanimation, each page is a marvel that brings animals, along with one shining star, to life with art that literally moves. It's impossible not to flip the page, and flip it again, and again, and again.

A first book of motion for kids, it shows a horse in full gallop and a turtle swimming up the page. A dog runs, a cat springs, an eagle soars, and a butterfly flutters. Created by Rufus Butler Seder, an inventor, artist, and filmmaker fascinated by antique optical toys, Scanimation is a state-of-the-art six-phase animation process that combines the "persistence of vision" principle with a striped acetate overlay to give the illusion of movement. It harkens back to the old magical days of the kinetoscope, and the effect is astonishing, like a Muybridge photo series springing into action—or, in terms kids can relate to, like a video without a screen. Complementing the art is a delightful rhyming text full of simple questions and fun, nonsense replies: Can you gallop like a horse? giddyup-a-loo! Can you strut like a rooster? cock-a-doodle-doo!

Every child who opens the book will be amazed—and so will every parent.

Features:
  • Rufus Butler Seder's Gallop! uses patented Scanimation to bring animal pictures to life every time you turn the page.
  • You won't believe your eyes as you watch a horse gallop, a rooster strut and many more amazing moving images.

Gallop!: A Scanimation Picture Book (Scanimation Books)
Amazing illustrations, but the text is lacking
My toddler is fascinated with the moving illustrations in Gallop, but the accompanying text is pretty sub-par as far as children's books go. I know it's difficult to come up with a rhyme for cock-a-doodle-doo, but...giddyup-a-loo? The rhymes aren't silly in a funny sense; they're just silly in a dumb sense. I wish the author would have tried a little harder when writing the book instead of relying so heavily on the novelty of the scanimation.

From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler

From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
Binding: Paperback
Manufacturer: Atheneum
Product Description:
Claudia knew that she could never pull off the old-fashioned kind of running away...so she decided not to run FROM somewhere, but TO somewhere. And so, after some careful planning, she and her younger brother, Jamie, escaped -- right into a mystery that made headlines!
Amazon.com Review:
After reading this book, I guarantee that you will never visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art (or any wonderful, old cavern of a museum) without sneaking into the bathrooms to look for Claudia and her brother Jamie. They're standing on the toilets, still, hiding until the museum closes and their adventure begins. Such is the impact of timeless novels . . . they never leave us. E. L. Konigsburg won the 1967 Newbery Medal for this tale of how Claudia and her brother run away to the museum in order to teach their parents a lesson. Little do they know that mystery awaits!
