ALPHABETIC: The very beginning of life and deeds, bundled in rhymes for you to conceive! By Kanika D. Luthra 

From Amazon: Alphabetic is intended for young children. It exemplifies letters with words containing six categories opening the twenty – six alphabets. These are Animals, Birds, Fruits, Vegetables, an Object, and a Profession. Each word under the category is briefly rhymed with its top description. The rhyming structure is appealing and operates as a meaningful aid to educate. Alphabetic does not limit the thoughts of the child to “A for Apple”, “B for a Ball”, or “C for a Cat” but takes it from there and beyond. It has an extensive approach to cover a wider spectrum of things around. Besides, the lines in this book are advanced for an early reading level of children. Befittingly, when kids are exposed to highly developed inventory of words they muster great vocabulary. Alphabetic is a meritorious read by parents for their children. It stimulates dialogue and promotes connection. Happy reading!

My Review: This book is awesome! Stupendous, even, as this story takes on each letter of the alphabet and it rhymes, in a flow of expertise, and words for kids to learn in a fun manner. The words for each letter are not what is normally seen and read in alphabet books. This book is on a much higher level and in a class of its own. Pictures aren’t needed. The flow and descriptions are more than enough. Five stars! 100 stars if I could give that many.

A Voice in the Night: An Adventure of Mystery and Suspense by Ernestine Dail

From Amazon: Chief Bradshaw, a small-town police officer of Shallow Springs, consults with private investigator Bob Barrett to solve the mystery of a jewel heist that led Chief Bradshaw to Blackstone Cabin. Teenagers Brian, Josh, and Thomas arrived at Blackstone Cabin in the middle of the night during a raging storm. With a hooded stranger banging on the door, they desperately wished for Josh’s father Mr. Joplin to return from town to protect them. Will Mr. Joplin return in time to save the boys from danger, or will the boys open the door to the frantic knocking of the stranger outside? “Open the door!” “Open the door now!”

My Review: Set goals and aim high is a positive mantra. This book is full of positive narrative mixed with one troubled teen. Taking lunch money from some kids at school doesn’t mean that the kid stole diamonds from a store burglary. The heist was more complicated than the teen could have pulled off. Look for the good and never believe in the bad in a person until proven guilty. Overall, a good read for middle graders. Some edits need to be done. Five stars.
