Book Review: IA: Union

Book Review: IA: Union

After reading IA: Initiate and IA: B.O.S.S., I’ve been clamoring for the next chapter in the IA series by John Darryl Winston. My dreams have finally been answered with the brilliant finale to the series, IA: Union.

If you haven’t already got your kids started, now is the perfect time for them to discover the exciting tale of Naz as he struggles with bullies, gangs, and learning his super powers while surviving in a massive ghetto.

 
Book Review: The Supadupa Kid

Book Review: The Supadupa Kid

Superheros are all the rage. Spider-man, Wonder Woman, Thor, and Batman fill the movie screens and toy shelves. If you have school-aged kids, most likely they are caught up in the frenzy.

Why not turn their passion for superheros into a passion for reading? I found a wonderful middle grade book about a regular kid who becomes a superhero. It is The Supadupa Kid by Ty Allen Jackson. It is a fun, action-packed story that will fill your kid's imagination.

Book Review: The Phantom Tollbooth

Book Review: The Phantom Tollbooth

I was recently traveling and brought along my favorite book to read, The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster. While I was sitting in the airport and on the plane, I was shocked by the number of people who had never even heard of the classic book. So, I felt it was time to write a review for the best book ever written!

Thanksgiving: A Time to Come Together

Thanksgiving: A Time to Come Together

After the seemingly endless election cycle, it seems like America is as divided as ever. Protests are in the streets and long friendships have ended over Presidential politics. Pundits on the 24-hour news cycle stoke the flames each night in search of their ratings.

Luckily, the uniquely American holiday of Thanksgiving is just around the corner to help us now focus on the things we all have in common instead of our differences. We can take this opportunity to reflect on all of things we that have to be thankful.

Halloween is just around the corner. It's a magical time for kids to dress up and have fun running through the neighborhood collecting candy. But with increasing prices on everything in the stores, it is more difficult to buy the costumes your kids are begging for.

Now is the perfect time to enact a time honored tradition of saving money and scrounging through your house to make a home-made costume.

Book Review: IA B.O.S.S.

After reading the first book in the IA series, I eagerly dived into IA B.O.S.S., the second book in the series. My high expectations were not disappointed as I absolutely loved it. It is a breathtaking, emotional sequel that beautifully expands on the story and themes from IA Initiate.
