The Red Fence

Review: The Red Fence - Ed Damiano , Illustrated by Jen Polk- July 2021


This cute picture book was an easy read and reminded me so much of the Dr. Seuss stories that the majority of us grew up on. From the creation and artwork of the characters to the rhyming and the crazy made-up names of the race which in the book The Red Fence are called Vanderloos. In this book, a family moves into the village and decides to be different and paint their fence - red when every other fence is white. The townspeople and mayor try to sway them and get them to change their mind but they stand firm. Slowly the rest of the town of Vanderloos see the family standing strong and accepting their differences and eventually the town is filled with colorful fences.  The Red Fence was a great picture book and aimed at children aged 4-6 years old and filled with bright and beautiful illustrations. Fans of Dr. Seuss’s stories will love Ed Damiano’s The Red Fence as it brought back those wonderful memories of childhood reading.

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 - 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...
