Big Dan's Moving Van

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1993

Moving with kids
This is a well-written children's book about moving. Our family moves often and this book really outlines what happens when the movers come. The book contains good information about what is happening while the driver has our belongings and why it takes longer for the truck to arrive at the new house than for us. It was fun for my kids to read about the moving van's path from coast to coast and ...

Random House Childrens Books, 1994

Fun, Even For Adults!
My wife bought this book in 1998 when our daughter was born. Our daughter is now 4 yrs old and STILL loves the book. We now also have a 16 month old who is well underway to making this book her favorite. We read it to her at least 3 times before bedtime. My wife doesn't mind because she gets a kick out of the pop-ups. She's even gone through the book without our kids around. Great book for ...

Random House Childrens Books, 1996

At the top of kids firefighter books.
My five year old son loves firefighting books. I am a volunteer firefighter/EMT in NY so my son always has a lot of questions. This book is fine without explanations. My son always has to know, "Is that how you do it Daddy?" This book stays close to reality with the help of Big Frank! Big Frank is a very likeable character for my son. I first started to read this book to him at 4 and he ...

Studio, 1994

This is one baby album you'll love to use. It's beautiful!
This album has beautiful illustrations throughout, with appropriate quotes and verses that are both amusing and profound. The pop-up features make it all the more fun to write in the mini and major milestones in your baby's life. I wish I had one when my kids were babies!

Is There Life After Sixth Grade? (Making the Grade Series)

1 review
Leslie McGuire

Troll Communications, 1990

I loved this book as a kid
I haven't read this book recently, and I'm sure if I did I would probably agree with the terrible review above. But the basic thing that's missing from that review is, would a kid enjoy the book? and would it make them want to read? Having read Is There Life After Sixth Grade? in 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th grades I can tell you that the answer to both questions is yes. Though I can't say it ever ...

I love this whole series. We have them all and they're small and easy to carry.

Good Night, Little Bear (Little Hugs Books)

Leslie McGuire, Risa Sherwood;Singer Gordon

Reader's Digest Children's Books Ltd, 1996

Must Have & Still on the Shelf at 9yrs old
My daughter had this book, it was the one I read from infancy and it ended up being the very first book she could read cover to cover as she's memorized every page. She is now almost 9 and still has the tattered book on her shelf along with her Little House and Harry Potters. It is a wonderful little story, just long enough to help the bedtime routine and rhyming to help them as they learn to ...

The Emotional Literacy Series: Fear

Liz Farrington, Leslie McGuire

Enchante Publishing, 1994

Beautifully illustrated book with topic directly addressed
This is one book which I wish to retain in my library of books at the office. I am a Mental Health therapist, an art therapist, and this book is a very helpful tool to have around. It deals with nightmares is a way that is just vauge enough to be valuable to any reader with nightmares. It is especially helpful to African Americn girls, as this is who the main character is. What a joy to ...

The Terrible Truth about Third Grade
The Terrible Truth About Third Grade is super! The main character is a girl named Battabe. Her real name is Jane. She makes up lies to make friends to. But she doesn't have any friends. So eventually none believes her lies. She doesn't do her homework. She even lies to her teacher to get out of trouble. But the teacher never believes her lies.

Time for bed: An action pop-up book

Leslie McGuire

Piggy Toes Press, 2000

Just beautiful
With 2 children, we have collected many children's books over the years. Nonetheless, this remains the prize- the book that I put away for my grandchildren and theirs. "Time for Bed?" walks you through bedtime chores, allowing your child to wash the piglet, pick up toys with turtle, dress llama for bed, brush bear's hair and teeth, and read a story with the bunnies. The book ends with a lullaby, ...

A Busy Day at Jack's Garage: All About Colors (Fisher-Price Little Tab Playbooks)

Leslie McGuire

Reader's Digest Association, 1997

A fun book
My daughter has been reading this book since about 6 months ... the tabs on the pages make the pages easy to turn for little hands and she loves the bright colourful illustrations. She is now 2 and still loves it and loves counting along with me as I read it over and over (and over and over) again. It's a permanent fixture in our car so there is always something to read on a car trip. A must ...

Anastasia Czarina or Fake: Opposing Viewpoints (Great Mysteries)

2 reviews
Leslie McGuire

Greenhaven Pr, 1989

Great photographs
I like this book because the author doesn't give you the answer to the mystery. She leaves it up to you, she gives you the clues, opinions, theories, and ideas and you decide if Anastasia Manahan was indeed the Grand Duchess Anastasia. I personally do not believe Anastasia Manahan was Anastasia, but this book is extremly well written and I really enjoyed it, and I especially liked the ...

This Farm Is a Mess

Leslie McGuire

Parents Magazine Press, 1981

This charming story illustrates shared responsibilities.
A very good read-aloud story for children AND adults, the book has simple watercolor illustrations and repetitive phrases that make it memorable. The story line is Farmer Wood's allowing his farm to get in a mess to the point that the animals decide to help him fix it up so that it will once again be a good home for them as well as for Farmer Wood. 'Shades of the old classic Little Red Hen, ...
