There is a reason why Berenstain Bear books have latest the test of time. With their solid moral plot, I have suggested them throughout the ABCJLM curriculum. An added tip is that these books are readily available and inexpensive to purchase. But the biggest draw is that kids love to read them! I was so excited ...

Review: Boz Books
As I stated in my last review of Boz products, I believe that Boz is one of the best kept secrets in children products. This is why I am so thankful to have the opportunity to tell you about Boz - because you need Boz in your home! Beside the DVD's that I have already highly suggested, Boz ...
Review: The Usborne Big Book of Things to Spot
The final book in my Usborne review is The Usborne Big Book of Things to Spot. This book contains over 4,000 pictures to find. Amazing! This a book that will go everywhere with you - to the doctors office, on a plane, traveling in the car, or just at home during quiet time. Beyond the "I Spy" concept, what I love ...
Review: Usborne Young Puzzles
If you ask Bubs his first impression - of anything right now - he will be negative. So when we sat down to read the next book in my Usborne reviews, he immediately said he didn't like this book. So, I started reading it outloud. It wasn't two sentences and he was right beside me. Then when I said the word "treasure" he ...
Review: Usborne Playtime Books
In February I posted about my excitement watching Bubs truly draw something. I mean, for the first time Bubs drew an object instead of just scribble. In that post, I credited the change to the Usborne book I Can Draw Animals. In our school time, I have incorporated the I Can Draw books to help Bubs make sense of objects. I ...

Right now it is his favorite potty-training book! There is a book for about any object that you can imagine - trains, animals, princess, dragon, ...
Review: Usborne First Experiences
If you are not familiar with Usborne books, you need to be! Seriously, this company offers some of the best books. I have even talked about some of their books in previous posts. Usborne books are provided by local consultants, sold on consultant websites, as well as sold on Amazon. I had the privilege to ...
Book: Red Red Red
This is our "new" favorite book from the library. Red Red Red by Valeri Gorbachev is a fun book to teach the color red as well as trying to figure out the ending. Turtle is in a huge hurry but the other animals can't figure out why. All Turtle will say is "red, red, red." With red all around, what is Turtle wanting to ...
Review: This Little Prayer of Mine
This Little Prayer of Mine is the latest in my review list. A short 40-page hardcover book for babies to preschool age children. The author - Anthony DeStefano - wants to teach children how to pray. And...he succeeds. With engaging rhymes and beautiful illustrations, This Little Prayer of Mine assures children that God is ...
3rd Children’s Bible Added
A while back I received the children's Bible My Story Bible: 66 Favorite Stories from Tyndale Kids to review. I have added it to the ABCJLM as a supplemental material. Several times I have debated on adding it to the curriculum. I even sat down and started to but realized that only about half of the stories in the ...
