Well Mardi Gras is gone, Valentine's Day amour still reigns and St Patty's Day is on the horizon. But have you started thinking about EASTER yet?
We have, as Miss Grace's birthday falls in the same period, we have to figure out what is birthday present, what is for the Easter bunny to deliver (shhhhhh)!
Synopsis:
David Sticker Book is a fun, interactive retelling of the story of David and Goliath, complete with four pages ofstickers, so children can help illustrate the story and fill in the gaps. Kids will love the fun, reusable stickers and bright illustrations as they engage with this well-loved Bible story.
Review: Miss Grace LOVES anything related to bible stories, and stickers, so I knew this book would be a hit. What I did not know was the week it came in, they talked about David in Bible, in class! So I'm not sure if I was reading the story to her, or if she was explaining it more TO me! I read the page, then handed her the stickers for that page and she put them on and commented on them. I was really impressed with the quality of the stickers, and how they blended in with the background (unlike others who have a solid color around them), like this one here.There are 2 stickers in the picture to the right- the flying bird and Samuel. You can see where Miss Grace got a foot slightly off, but otherwise, the background is perfectly blended, so you don't realize it is a sticker book unless you read the cover! Miss Grace loves this story and I'm sure we'll be revisiting this book frequently.It is perfect boy boys and girls, and we recommend it as a Easter basket present!
