Review: Julia's House for Lost Creatures

Julia's House for Lost Creatures Julia's House for Lost Creatures by Ben Hatke
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I liked the book so much that as soon as I finished reading it I went back and read it again, and took more time to examine all the art, which is rewarding in that Hatke includes images from his other books. And since I’ve loved every one of this books….But this one got me to thinking. Julia lives in an adorable Queen Anne with a big front porch, and a fireplace, and built-in bookshelves and a big overstuffed comfy chair. It’s an immediately charming house, the big comfy chair by the fireplace is something that most people would love to have. So why is it no one builds houses like this? And why isn’t anyone selling chairs like this?

Review: Kat Kong

Kat Kong Kat Kong by Dav Pilkey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

You know, I'm kind of sorry that Pilkey has done so insanely well with his other books, because he hasn't made any more like this and Dogzilla, my favorites.
