Esther The Kindness Fairy: A Review

Esther the Kindness Fairy (Rainbow Magic: The Friendship Fairies, #1)Esther the Kindness Fairy by Daisy Meadows
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh no...no no no no no!

I can't believe the people at HIT Entertainment would disobey the whole banned Pingu thing and let someone slap someone else in a little girls' chapter book.

That's it, I'm not reading anymore!

Mr Men Go Camping: A Review

 

Mr. Men Go Camping (Mr. Men & Little Miss Everyday)Mr. Men Go Camping by Roger Hargreaves
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Take it from Mr Strong:
Never take a bunch of idiots on a camping trip!

A good book to not only show kids before their very first trip out camping, but also teach them the values of resourcefulness and helping friends in need.

Capybara Cuties: Best Review Ever

 

Capybara Cuties: Colouring BookCapybara Cuties: Colouring Book by Scholastic Inc.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is, by far, one of the best books Scholastic has done so far.

All the pictures of the capybaras were absolutely cute, especially the ones about them at bedtime and on Halloween and enjoying Hawaiian island vacations and luaus and Winter holidays and so on.

Bring me more Cuties books, Scholastic! MOAR, PLEASE!

He Man #2 (Without Orko?!): A Review

 

Masters of the Universe (Vol. 2) #2AMasters of the Universe (Vol. 2) #2A by Val Staples
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What an awesome comic!

I did all the sound effects and - almost - attempted to do all the voices despite not hearing the actual 2002 cartoon voices clearly.

And despite Orko not being in this comic, I so enjoyed it.
I WANT MORE!

A Late Reply From Princess Celestia About The New Baby

My dear student,
I am so proud with how you handled talking with Sally out in public - without your musical 'phones on - yesterday.

When I heard the owner of T T Retro has a new baby in the family, being one of the many characters available at T T Retro myself I just had to celebrate - and I'm glad you did, too. You're letting her avoid every single overstimulating show toddlers are forced to watch on their iPads these days.

Have you seen that Simpsons episode where Maggie is forced to do horrible things by that AI ghost? I have, and low stimulating content rules over everything - including puppet shows made by Gerry Anderson.
Humbly,
Your friend,
Princess Celestia

A Late Letter To Princess Celestia: Eating & Sleeping

Dear Princess Celestia,
Back in the day, horrid grown ups said that eating and sleeping makes you fat and lazy and chubby and unmotivated.

But sometimes, I think I learnt that food and sleep can be actually good for your mind and body.

Today I went out with my support worker and had a whole packful of sausage rolls, followed by a Coke Zero. I didn't eat my Yorkies until I got home.

And when I got home, I had a two hour nap, making sure to get up when the bell rang-a-lang-a-ding-dong.

So there's nothing to call peeps fat about, is there?
Yours hungrily,
Your faithful student from Earth
