Whilst this book could have done with an extra day of proofreading the information is good. Some useful links are included too.

This book puts a twist on some commonly used phrases to tell you love someone.

Good for little ones as text is limited. The illustrations are cute, fun, and colourful.

This is a simple alphabet book with a different animal for each letter of the alphabet. What makes it different from many others I've seen is the amount of detail in the illustrations. The artist is incredibly talented and has a strong, individual style that really stands out. All the pictures were beautiful but the ones with colour have that extra something and grabbed the attention of my kids more than the black and white ones.

The pictures in this book are just gorgeous. I loved the textured look and all the little details. The story hints at early map reading skills making the book a good choice for kids just starting out with the idea of using maps. Some moments in the story brought a smile to both my kids faces and my own. Very cute.

Nevaeh is a little girl who wants to be a Princess. Her Grandmother "Mimi" tells her the things she needs to do and the things she shouldn't in order to be a Princess. Over all the story gives a positive message about being nice to others, and that beauty is something that comes from the inside and not just something seen on outside. This book would therefore be a good tool for talking about bullying.

There was a part of the story that I didn't like though, which is where it says to do what adults tell you. Whilst I liked the message of obeying rules set by parents and teachers the general "adults" part would have been best avoided. Unfortunately not ALL adults can be trusted. Other than that though, it gave good pointers for being nice and respectful towards others.

I liked that the Grandmother tells Nevaeh she has been, and always will be, her little Princess at the end.

I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Penny knows her stuff! This book was a quick read, but packed full of great information and tips.

If you're a self published author this book is a must have. I also highly recommend it to other authors and publishers... and basically anyone who deals with listing books on Amazon.

I liked the clear layout and clutter free explanations and how to's. There are also plenty of screenshots to help make each step even easier to follow.

I'll definitely be referring back to this book often as it's full of great resources and links.

I absolutely loved this book! If you like crime thrillers this book is a must read. Awesome plot, great characters, Ethan Cross is fast becoming one of my favourite authors. Excellent, fast paced action, that will leave you full of questions about what you would do.
