Winter fun
I bought this book to read to my grandchildren, ages 2-4. The drawings are fun to see and the words are equally fun to read. My grandchildren thoroughly enjoy this book.

Every kid has his or her favorite color
And mine was red. Asbury's books about primary colors are delightful. You'll also want to buy, as did I, Bonnie's Blue House and Yolanda's Yellow School.

Turkey Time! (Thanksgiving Board Books)

4 reviews

Price Stern Sloan, 2000

DELICIOUS!
This little book, like all of Kelly Asbury's work, is charming and sweet in the very best way. A little girl enjoys, with anticipation and wonder, a Thanksgiving Day, as she watches the great feast being prepared, the table sat and the scrumptious food being served up...all the way to the pumpkin pie. Asbury's simple, colorful illustrations are perfect visual treat and the easy text should ...

FUN! CUTE! ORIGINAL!
Just bought this book for my 5 year old and he was delighted. Not just another book about a snowman, this is a great one for kid's to participate. My son found Snowy's nose before I did. Helps with kid's observational skills. A great new book that will be around for years to come.

We Love This Board Book!
This is a fabulous little board book. Oftentimes, the language in board books is very simplistic. Not here. With wonderful rhymes and beautiful literary devices, this book is a joy for both children and their parents. My favorite page begins: "A whiff of apples and cinnamon toast, air that is corduroy-cold..." What wonderful sensory images! My three-year-old son loves this book, and even ...

FUN! FUN! FUN!
This is a wonderful book to teach children colors. Kids will enjoy all the blue objects they can spot on every page. Kelly Asbury has created a delightful series of books with "Bonnie's Blue House", "Yolanda's Yellow School" and "Rusty's Red Vacation". I love them all and look forward to more books by Kelly Asbury.

Dummy Days: America's Favorite Ventriloquists from Radio and Early TV

26 reviews
Kelly Asbury

Angel City Press, 2003

Fascinating
Okay, I admit it: I grew up watching Paul Winchell on TV. And my best friend carved his own dummy, and practiced ventriloquism, while I acted as "audience". So, dummies and ventriliquists formed my warped view of life, later leading to Monte Python and Firesign Theater. What makes ventriliquists fascinating is their combination of surrealism, fantasy and real-life issues, projected into their ...

Yolanda's Yellow School

A bright little book
Some books go on for a thousand pages but don't seem to be about anything. This little book knows it's about the color yellow and carries off that simple theme with great style.

Candy Corn (Halloween Shape Board Books)

Price Stern Sloan, 2001

Candy Corn, a calico kitten in the shape of a triangle, acts as a guide pointing out all the shapes similar to herself as she takes us on a tour of a gently spooky Halloween night. With charming full-color illustrations throughout, this simple, attractive board book will be a natural hit.

Wild Witches' Ball
Jack Prelutsky

HarperFestival, 2004

A tall witch, a round witch, a silly witch, too. Some are spooky, some are cute, and one wears go-go boots! They have gathered for their ball. Why not try to count them all?
