Children's Book Review~Whaley's Big Adventure

Whaley's Big Adventure is a new children's book written AND illustrated by 5-year-old Alexander Luke, and presented by his grandmother, award-winning author Carole P. Roman.  We've read and enjoyed many of Ms. Roman's books, and it looks like her grandson is now the newest author in the family!  How amazing to be able to say you published your first book at age five!!!

In Whaley's Big Adventure, Whaley the Blue Whale sets out on an adventure to meet and learn about several other types of whales.  It is a cute story, full of fascinating facts about the different whales.  The illustrations are simple child drawings, and the colors are calm and muted.  This would be a good children's book for a wide range of ages.

Soft Scrub Balls Dream Band!

Have you tried the Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care?  I have, and I recommend it if you would rather not be scrubbing your toilet as much.  All you do is place the hanger on the toilet bowl rim to fight toilet rings, freshen, and prevent future build-up.  Even better is the cost-under $2.00 for up to four weeks of freshness!  

To get the word out about this great product, there is a Balls Dream Band with a 'Flush to Paradise' video showing you how sexy a clean, fresh toilet can be!  Click here to watch!

For more information check out the Soft Scrub Facebook page.


Disclosure: The Soft  Scrub brand provided me with a video link  of Soft Scrub Balls Dream Band in exchange for a chance to win a $50 gift card.  However, all the opinions expressed here are my own.

Children's Book Review~The Treasure of Snake Island

The Treasure of Snake Island is the latest book in the Captain No Beard series by author Carole P. Roman.  Our family has read a few books in this series, and they are a hit with everyone!  In The Treasure of Snake Island, the crew has to deal with a storm.  When the storm has passed, they search for buried treasure together.  Kids learn about teamwork and friendship, as well as the value of books!

Above is my 2-year-old grandson thoroughly enjoying every picture in The Treasure of Snake Island.  The pictures are adorable and very colorful.  My 11-year-old son enjoys all of the Captain No Beard stories as well. 

To learn more about the author and her books, visit her website at www.caroleproman.com .  We have enjoyed many of her books from this series and others.  You can purchase The Treasure of Snake Island through her website or on Amazon.

Wordless Wednesday~Puppy Spooning

Book Review~Fearless

Jim and Amy Spencer are grieving the loss of a child during pregnancy, with no hope for children in the future.  In their small town of Virginia Mills, one of the residents is saved from a house fire by a young girl who mysteriously appeared in the fire.  Nobody knows who she is, and she doesn't know anything but her first name-Louisa.  She is placed with the Spencers, who soon start noticing odd things happening.

Louisa seems to have a special gift of healing, which stirs up their town.  At the same time, murders begin occurring, leaving the residents terrorized.  Do the two have anything in common?  What will happen to Louisa, and will the killer be stopped?

Fearless is a page-turning novel written by author Mike Dellosso.  This isn't my usual type of fiction, but the description intrigued me.  I'm glad I decided to review it, because I couldn't put it down once I started reading!  This book has you on the edge of your seat to the very last page!  It is a good, clean book with an overall theme of faith in God.
