The Little Blue Box of Bright and Early Board Books by Dr. Seuss (Bright Early
09 February 2017
Hard for younger crowd to identify
Although these books are durable, packaged well and boxed nicely, I wouldn't recommend.
The real issue is that young toddlers who read board books can't identify with the arbitrary Dr. Seuss characters and depictions. Please keep in mind that for older toddlers who like repetition, they can identify well with the Dr. Seuss characters, but at that time the board books should be set aside for the original Dr. Seuss offerings.

Making fabric work for you
This is definitely not for beginners, and if you want it to turn out like the photos, then you need to be able to follow directions. Definitely not for the faint of heart. Compelling pictures and specific directions will inspire you to create masterpieces of your own.

Reread of the Destroyer novels
I read this series when I was a teenager, and decided to reread starting at the beginning now that my son is coming of age and looking for books that may interest him.
This series starts out a little slow, but there is a lot of ground work to lay before the rest of the series can take off. The books read very differently as an adult than they did when I was a teenager.
Warren Murphy does a fantastic job of making the reader visualize what his characters are experiencing. He is capable of putting the reader into the surroundings by utilizing descriptive terms for not only sight, but smell and hearing as well.
