Hayley's Children's Book Reviews


Peppa Pig And The Lost Christmas List created by Neville Astley, Mark Baker and Phil Davies is the perfect book to help get kids in the Christmas spirit.  Join Peppa Pig and her friends as they prepare for Christmas.  After all the friends’ preparations, it turns out to be a surprising Christmas when Santa loses his Christmas list.  Will Peppa be able to help Santa save Christmas? 

Henry and his first-grade friends love playing soccer together at recess until Sam, a second-grade bully, starts causing them problems.  After several days of bullying, Henry doesn’t know what to do.  Will Henry be able to show Sam he is not afraid of a bully?  Nancy Carlson’s, Henry And The Bully, is a great example of how kids can use their own intelligence to solve problems.     

Oh NO! frog falls into a deep, deep hole.  Soon mouse does too and then loris.  Who will rescue the animals?  Will a hungry tiger help them or hurt them?  Read Oh NO!, a rollicking romp in the forest, by Candace Fleming and Eric Rohmann.  

There is nothing sweeter than the sound of a baby laughing.  One day a little baby laughed for the first time.  His family was so excited for him they decided to have a “laugh-out-loud party.”  Family and friends came from miles away to hear the little baby laugh.  Read Laugh-Out-Loud Baby by Tony Johnston and Stephen Gammell and see what happens when everyone arrives to hear the little baby laugh.
