1 comments about Silly Sweetheart Celebrations: A Tongue-Twister Tale.

1. Silly Sweetheart Celebrations is all about a classroom of kids getting ready for a Valentine's party. Lots of wacky things happen to the kids as they make crafts, cards and treats. The book is written in rhyme that are tounge twisters making it fun to read aloud.
   
   I liked this book because of all the silly things that happens to the kids in the classroom. The pictures were fun to look at. You never knew what was going to happen next to the children. The pages are fold out style making this book unique.
   
   This book would make a great story to share with a classroom right before a Valentine's Day party.

2 comments about Michael Le Souffle and the April Fool.

1. This is Pete Welling's best book yet. Although I didn't think he could top Andrew McGroundhog and His Shady Shadow, I think Michael Le Soufflé's illustrations are the best of any children's book I have seen in recent memory.

   The story, a comical tale about a happy-go-lucky rooster and an irritable pig, is original to say the least. While I think children (and adults) will enjoy the story, it's the illustrations that steal the show. I was laughing more at the illustrations than at the story. Each page is packed full of humor within humor; the book may be a short 32 pages but it took me half an hour to get through it because I spent so much time on each page looking at the complex, yet fanciful, drawings.

   If you have a young child just learning to read or an older child who still enjoys being read to while looking at great illustrations, then buy this book. It will be cherished for years to come.




2. Michael Le Souffle and the April Fool is the imaginative account of the start of April Fools Day. The mayor of Bakonneggs in France is a horribly grouchy man who doesn't want anyone to have fun. He has even outlawed laughing! But when the mayor decides to change the date of New Years Day, everyone is sure he is pulling a prank.
   
   Michael Le Souffle and the April Fool tells an entertaining, humour filled story while teaching children a little about French culture and vocabulary. Throughout the pages of the story are French words for the objects shown. The book even includes an easy to use French- English translation and pronunciation guide at the back.
