This is one of the best religious picture books I have seen come out in a very long time. We love the message which reminds us we can pray any time in any place about anything. The color scheme is matching and beautiful. Teal, red and yellow pallette bring in a 50’s vintage picture book feel. I Can Pray Every Day has quickly become a favorite pick for our family and especially appealed to our 6 and 9 year old. Loved this book!

With colorful illustrations and a comforting message, this picture book follows the parallel stories of two young girls who are having problems with their hair. One wants to grow her hair longer, while the other, who has lost her hair during cancer treatment, would just like to have it back. Their friendship leads them to a new understanding of hair loss and the act of giving, and teaches them about courage, generosity, and pride. A helpful reading and discussion guide for parents and a list of fun, related learning activities for kids are also included.

9 year old reader review

The Long and Short Of It is very inspiring for girls with long hair to give to girls with no hair. Isabel wanted to grow her hair long just like her cousins but Emma wanted hair period long or short brown or blond she lost her hair in a cancer treatment which happens to lots of girls and boys. Isabel decided to give her hair away she sent it in and like magic Emma had hair again. Now she felt like she fit in . We should all give to people with cancer to make them feel good .

Once there was a redwood tree—one of the world’s largest and tallest trees, and one of the oldest. And once, born nearly a thousand years after the tree first took root, there was a girl named Julia, who was called Butterfly.

When exploring her beloved forest, Butterfly wandered into a grove of ancient trees. One tree had broken branches and a big blue “X” on the side. It was going to be chopped down. Butterfly climbed up into the tree. A tree wouldn’t be cut down if it had a person living in it. This is the story of Julia Butterfly Hill and Luna, the redwood tree she lived in for two years, never once coming down. That is, not until Luna's future was safe.

9 year old reader review

Luna and Me is a good book . It’s about a girl who really cares about trees. She discovers life inside this tree .when she finds a blue x on the tree she looks around and sees what it means it will soon be chopped down and harvested. That day butterfly set out on a journey to save the trees.  She stayed in that tree no matter what . That’s how we should all be about the  trees or even the environment.
