This book was the very traditional little red riding hood story that everyone is familiar with. I loved the illustrations in this book because they look like drawings. I loved the storyline that the author stuck to, so readers are familiar with the style of the story.

This book is very similar to the Gingerbread Man story that is with Usborne. This book has some variation in the storyline that makes it a little different from the traditional Goldilocks story. This book was published in the UK, so the sounds and rhymes are a little different. This story is also a listen and read book that has the sound device, so the reader of the story has a British accent.

This book is the traditional gingerbread man story, so I liked comparing this one to the Cajun story. I liked to see that this story stuck to the basic story that everyone is familiar with. This particular book is a listen and read story, so the book has a sound device in it that reads the story to children.

It's crazy that this book is marketed for children! Beautiful illustrations and explanations make this perfect for anyone wanting to understand the times and reasons for castles, maintenance, and lifestyles of those within. There is a maplet denoting approximately where castles or their ruins can be found. Only one in Norway, but a whole nest of them in Syria and Japan! Works very well for this adult.

This Book focuses on phonemic awareness and development for younger learners probably kindergarten to second grade. I have read this to pre-k kids and they LOVE it as an interactive read aloud.

Infantil

Aimed at young children using phonics to learn to read.
Bright, colourful story of Lizard and his friends who live on a tropical beach. Wondering what snowflakes are like Lizard invents a machine and soon the whole beach is completely frozen; until the machine breaks.
The pictures are full of detail and the story is short and funny.

This book is one of my favorite book that I can read thousand times. Anne Shirley, the red-headed orphan who has so many up and down life challenges, displayed her personality as charming, intelligent, and brave. This story teaches about friendships, honesty, challenging for better, family and many more. I can ask countless questions and discussions about many topics through this book.

I can read this book with 3rd grade.

Have you ever wondered what castles were really for? Or what it was like to live inside one? Internet linked

I thought this was a bit babyish for me. I would have liked it to be longer and with more detail so the story was more exciting.

This is a tale about two donkeys who are tired of working and want an easier life. They meet a wise man who decides to take away all their problems by turning them into zebras.

The illustrations are amazing and serve to bring this story to life. Unfortunately the writing is atrocious. It fails to properly capture the essence of Alice in Wonderland. I grabbed this book from my local library because the illustrations are stunning and because Usborne usually is quite nice. Sadly, the actual text dragged this book down. I would not recommending reading this version.

This book is presented from a tour guides perspective. The "guide" provides a tour of Ancient Egypt visiting various sites, exploring the history and life of the Egyptians.

It is a famous story that written by The Brothers Grimm. Since Snow White is a very fair, new Queen hope for Snow White doesn't exist. There were a lot of thrilling scenes in this book.

Today, I read "The Little Giraffe".
This is the story of the first giraffe in the world.
And about the tale why giraffe's neck is so long.

"He lived in East Africa......with his best friend, Rhino."
"Every day, they looked for food."
..."So they went to see......the wise man."

I think there are few difficult words. And easy to read.

A child's guide to Ancient Rome. Bought it to buffup my knowledge of ancient Rome prior to our trip. Easy, straightforward and interesting design.

This story is interesting.
