I’m a huge Disney fan and while I love the Disney cartoons, it’s the non-animated shows that I really enjoy the most. The whole family enjoyed the Disney’s Alice in Wonderland when we watched it so I knew Disney Alice Through the Looking Glass was something we had to watch too. A DVD was provided […]

Children's Book: The Moonlight Tooth Fairy

I’m sure you have the same tradition as most parents of placing your child’s tooth under their pillow and the “tooth fairy” leaves a treasure in return. We leave money-more for the first couple of teeth. My youngest is eleven and STILL has baby teeth. Of course, she doesn’t believe in the tooth fairy, but […]

The Rootlets: Trouble at Plantasy Land by Vicki Marquez
