How Full Is Your Bucket? For Kids Review

How Full Is Your Bucket For Kids
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Just bought this today on a trip over to Gallup University in Omaha. I read it to my kids tonight (daughter, 7 - son, 4). They both really liked it and we had a great little discussion about the meaning of buckets and how it feels to fill and spill your bucket and the buckets of others. They both understood it very well. I recommend it for kids of all ages. I bought one for my mom too - she's a very inspirational person, mother, teacher, grandmother. It makes a great gift. I'm thinking it will make a great teacher's gift for my daughter's teacher too!

Through the story of a little boy named Felix, this charming book explains to children how being kind not only helps others, it helps them, too. As he goes about his day, Felix interacts with different people - his sister Anna, his grandfather, other family and friends. Some people are happy, but others are grumpy or sad. Using the metaphor of a bucket and dipper, Felix' grandfather explains why the happy people make Felix feel good, while the others leave him feeling bad - and how Felix himself is affecting others, whether he means to or not. This beautifully illustrated adaptation takes the original book's powerful message - that the way we relate to others has a profound effect on every aspect of our lives - and tailors it to a child's unique needs and level of understanding.

It's Time Start Using Your Words (Transition Times Books) Review

It's Time Start Using Your Words (Transition Times Books)

I bought this a couple of weeks ago for my 2 year old son because I am trying to get him to communicate more in general. I thought it would be one of those books that I read, but wouldn't really resonate for him. Oh I was wrong. He loves it. I also like that there is enough going on in the pictures that I can extend the story and speak to it, but the artwork is simple enough to not be confusing. He went to sleep to me reading it to him, he woke up and asked me to read it to him. He loves it.

Bully Review

Bully

This is a great book to help children who are experiencing bullying problems. First, by acknowledging how painful it can be to be bullied, secondly, by helping kids find ways to work through bullying problems, and last, by helping kids understand why kids are bullies to begin with. If you have a child who is plagued with problems arising from bullies, I would recommend this book, which is sure to encourage dialogue and problem solving discussions.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Brian Gage's The Saddest Little Robot is an impressive work of children's literature about an ordinary little Drudgebot, unhappy in his endless labor in the depths of the Cylinder that powers the light in the great Dome City. Curious about what lies outside his world, he journeys outside, makes unlikely friends, and meets with a great Makerbot who inspires him to return to his home and liberate his fellow Drudgebots. A moving story, told on a grand scale and wondrously illustrated by Kathryn Otoshi, The Saddest Little Robot will prove a welcome and much appreciated addition to school and community library science fiction collections for young readers.
