Sophie and the Tiny Dognapping: A Book About Doing the Right Thing

Review: Sophie and the Tiny Dognapping - #Chicken Soup for the Soul KIDS - Jamie White and Illustrated by Lorian Tu - September 2021


Growing up in my late teens to early adulthood, I loved and devoured the Chicken Soup for the Soul books as I enjoyed reading all the amazing stories that had happened and they were genuine wonderful news stories. Recently, they have released some stories aimed at young children and feature around a group of kids called The Sunshine Squad who help aim each other in the right direction. In Sophie and the tiny Dognapping, we meet friends Sophie and Mia. Mia has a wonderful dollhouse and a cute little dog doll, Sophie adores it but Mia doesn't like to play inside with dolls and would prefer to be outside playing sports like Basketball. Sophie thinks that Mia won't notice if she takes the little dog. Sophie's right, Mia doesn't notice but Sophie starts to feel ill, and guilt niggles in her tummy. She must now - own up and do the right thing and return the dog to Mia and tell the truth, no matter what the consequences. This little picture book which is aimed at children aged 6-9 years old reinforces to children that not only is stealing bad but that Doing the right thing like telling the truth is always the best outcome as lying is not only making things worst for the other person but damaging your self-esteem even more as with Sophie - the stealing and lying was causing her to feel physically ill.  I am looking forward to reading more of these cute stories and it has made me now want to go back and check out the other Chicken Soup for the Soul stories for Teens/Adults.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
