  • Brooms Are for Flying

    Michael Rex

The rhythmic text begs to be chanted, and the little witch provides all the thrills of this favorite holiday without any of the chills.

  • Prince Jonathan's War: A Bible Story

    Mick Michaels

    language (Defiant Publishing LLC, May 15, 2012)
    The Philistines have taken over Israel and King Saul needs to run them out. But he's too scared to fight. His son, Prince Jonathan, is ready to trust God. He and his armor bearer have gone to fight the enemy alone. But the Philistine army is pretty big. Have they made a big mistake?* * * * * Mick Michaels thinks first grade readers need exciting books like the ones adults enjoy. So he's creating what you might call "first grade novels" — books that are more involved than easy readers but not as big as chapter books. They tell science fiction stories, fantasy stories, myths and legends, and other types of action-adventure tales that will appeal to most modern kids, especially boys.These action-adventure books average 2000-2500 words, each with 5 or 6 chapters of around 400 words or less. Each chapter includes a couple of illustrations to help ease the transition from picture-oriented books to text-oriented books. The sentences sound more adult than "See Spot run. Run, Spot, run!" but aren't overly complex. While each book includes two or three challenging new words, the vast majority of words are already part of a first-grader's vocabulary. And each book is checked by a children's librarian to make sure the reading levels are appropriate for young readers. This book is for kids reading on a level of 2-3.Young readers love action-adventure stories. If you want to encourage them to read, give them books they'll love!

  • The Reminder

    Rune Michaels

    Paperback (Atheneum Books for Young Readers, May 18, 2010)
    Daisy, otherwise known as Daze, hears her dead mother's voice. Sometimes it's because of her dad, who likes to watch old home movies when he can't sleep. Sometimes it's because of her brother, who is too young to remember Mom, and needs to be reminded by looking at photographs and watching videos. Sometimes it might just be her mind trying to work out what her therapist would call "issues." But this time, it’s none of those things. It’s something much more wonderful and much more terrifying, something Daze never thought possible. And it might allow her to do what she couldn't years ago: save her mother's life.
