On a windy spring day, Bear sniffs the air. Could it be. . . Kite day? Rushing home he tells Mole, and the two fast friends get to work building a kite of their own. They study, and collect, and measure, and construct--and soon, their kite is flying high above the meadow. But when a storm rumbles in--SNAP --the kite string breaks, and all their hard work soars away. Chasing after it, Mole and Bear discover all is not lost--wedged in the branches of a tree, their kite protects a nest of baby birds from the pouring rain. Will Hillenbrand's Bear and Mole series is the perfect choice for storytime sharing or reading aloud. Strong verbs, repetitive phrases, and fun-to-read sounds keep young listeners and readers engaged with the story, while the gentle illustrations add detail and quiet humor. Kids will delight in poring over these books again and again. Don't miss the other Bear and Mole titles, including All For a Dime, Spring is Here, and First StarBinding Type: Hardcover

A Child's Guide to visiting London
Format: Paperback
I bought this as a Christmas present for my 12 year old granddaughter as she will be traveling to London this summer. It seemed perfect in describing places to visit and things to do. She was very excited to look at it.

Weird printing error
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
There are about 30 pages in the middle of the book dedicated to “what is special about dad”. I have to imagine we’re missing quite a bit of the actual book.

Great series
Format: Hardcover
The Worst is a great series. I ordered them for my 3 year old granddaughter, and they’re her favorite. She has all except the newest one, which I will be ordering for her birthday.
