I was recently delighted to be contacted by Barefoot Books and asked to review some childrens books for them! They are such a super company and I was thrilled to get specially selected books for us to review!!

I was sent FOUR books for review:
-
Dotty Spotty Doodles and Zig Zag Zebra, both Barefoot Young Artists Book by Madeline Deny- Draw, doodle, paint and color! The simple activities encourage
creativity, and help small children to master drawing skills, shape
recognition, line drawing and color combining, while also preparing them
to learn to read. Ages 3-7 years. If daughter loved the Train book, she was totally in LOVE with this and the next book! Course she's going thru a severe activity phase, and it had ladybugs on the cover (her fav) so it makes sense! The pages have instructions for parents to read, and then child colors or does the activity on the page. We also used the pages for counting exercises, as well as naming colors and shapes, and she loved it all. In fact, I had to stop her or she
would have gone thru the whole book at one sitting! This book is perfect for travel, or for keeping in the car for when you need to keep kids occupied! Also on sale at Barefoot Books, but for $4.99!
- Who's in the Garden by Phyllis Gershator- In this delightful peek-a-boo book, children are invited to look through the holes on every other page to answer the repeating refrain, “Who’s coming to see how my garden grows?” The energetic, rhyming text introduces all sorts of
creatures that are busy in the garden. As you know, daughter helped Papa raise a garden this year, so anything dealing with a garden is a HUGE hit in our house and this was no exception! Daughter literally has to look at this book EVERY morning after breakfast, she loves it so much! The illustrations are divine, and again perfect for looking and counting/color exercises! The book is very sturdy and has a perfect heft for being a lap book!
