My thoughts-

This is such a cute book.  My seven-year-old daughter was excited, because she was able to read it herself with very little help.

She said, “I liked the illustrations.  I liked the recipe to make the gingerbread Noah’s ark.  I liked sticking the stickers on.  It would be good for kids my age and younger.”

I really enjoyed the illustrations and text.  Children who have had Noah’s Ark Playtime read to them will learn about Noah and what happened to him and the animals.  The game, activities, and the making of a gingerbread ark will help enforce what they have been learning.

I highly recommend this book.  It would be perfect for a rainy day or anytime a child needs a fun activity.

My thoughts-

I like the concept of having stickers and activities in books for young children.  It helps them have a part in the story, thus enabling them to both, remember the story better and to have the desire to have someone read it to them.

My Very First Easter Story Sticker Book has perfect illustrations and stories for children ages three to five.  My children who are seven and nine also enjoyed it.  Here is what they had to say:

C (age 7) says- “I liked the illustrations, story, and activities.  The Easter Prayer was my favorite part.  It’s good for kids my age to read to others and to themselves.”

B (age 9) says- “I liked the book.  It is not only a good book for 3-5 year-olds, but anyone who wants to read it.  They will enjoy it.  I think My Very First Easter Story Sticker Book is good for kids my age.

This is a perfect first Easter story book for young children.  Please find a copy today, so you can share this important story to the young children in your life.
