The Caterpillar Hotel
"The Caterpillar Hotel provides a lesson most children probably don’t often think about—how people treat those providing services. I’ve read this to my daughter every night since we got it and she loves it. She’s always so happy to see Cody change his rude ways and it’s a great lesson for her to have in her mind whenever we’re at a store or a restaurant. Great descriptions in the book and cute drawings too!"

"I really enjoyed this book! It was extremely well written, and had lovely artwork! I was drawn in by the authors descriptive language that really invested me in the story of two young girls going around town. I really felt an emotional tug for them as they encountered different situations and attitudes from those they encountered. The book has a strong message that children of all ages can take to heart. I would recommend this as an addition to anyone’s library!!!"

What If We Were
All The Same!
"In What If We Were All The Same ! author C.M.Harris introduces children to a simple concept : how diversity is a powerful and a wonderful thing. First, she shows thanks to Ashlynn Feather’s illustrations what a world where everything would be the same would look like. Same houses, same cars, same stars. Even the food would be the same and beets would be in everyday meals ! Using animals at first in her demonstration, she then shows how people are all different. I enjoyed all the diversity in this book and how it includes everyone : hair colors, skin colors, eye colors, handicaps, heights and capabilities ; everything being nicely explained in rhymes. I love how C.M.Harris empowers children, encouraging them to embrace their differences and respect the ones of others as well, sharing an important message about inclusion and diversity."

"Such a cute, very informative book. Parents can learn right alongside their children while reading this. We love that our son is not only entertained by the pictures and rhyming, but he is also learning valuable life skills. We model save, spend, and give in our house as well, it is nice to see this taught to young ones in such a fun way."

What If We Were All The Same!
"This is a book I would love to have in my classroom! It is super simple to read, it rhymes, and has the cutest pictures. I think it is a great way to address how differences are what make us unique and it ties in real world things such as food and animals before discussing people."

Just Because...
"Great book addressing a unique topic! My daughter asks for this book to be read to her on a regular basis. It offers a chance for children to build perspective and to challenge stereotypes/negative thinking that sometimes surround our differences."

The Secret Candy Drawer
"I loved the portrayal of the dentist's office, and Hellman's artwork makes it even more immersive for the young reader. If you're looking for a fun tale, this is the perfect picture book. Recommended to kids below the age of ten."
The Caterpillar Hotel
"The staff at The Caterpillar Hotel offer some top notch customer service while dealing with a very grumpy caterpillar. I'd stay at this hotel! This story was so delightful and would definitely be an enlightening read to illustrate how a little kindness can go a long way. The illustrations are great as well. Cody may very well be the cutest grumpiest caterpillar I've ever seen!
Big Thank You to LibraryThing, Purple Diamond Press, and the author, Caroline Kjos for the opportunity to read an advance copy!."

"What an adorable and educational book for children. I’m looking forward to reading it to all my grandchildren. This book is such a great tool to help to teach your children at a young age the importance of money and how it can benefit their life by saving. Great job Nycole and Toni."

Why Can't I...
"Why Can't I? was a joy to read. It's a sweet children's book about sharing kindness and love, saying sorry when we hurt someone, and having positive thoughts about ourselves and others. Your child can establish new friendships and maintain positive relationships with the aid of this beautiful book. It will also inspire them to value integrity and obedience. This book was outstanding in every respect. I enjoyed reading it and I'm sure every child will feel the same way. C.M. Harris used language that any child over seven will understand and be able to read. The text is packed with intriguing word constructions and rhymes to help children improve their literacy skills and make the narrative enjoyable to read out aloud. This is a fantastic read intended to entertain and educate. I highly recommend it to children of all ages."
