Reviews of Children's Books by Clavis Publishing at TC&TBC


As many of you know, I also run The Children's and Teens' Book Connection. I received a box of books from Clavis Publishing that I reviewed on June 27th at that blog. What I loved about these books is the way that they truly celebrated families and youngsters.

You can find my reviews at http://childrensandteensbookconnection.wordpress.com/. The titles are:


Bathing
Going to the Beach with Lily and Milo
Going to the Zoo with Lily and Milo
My Daddy
Playing
Ricky is Brave
Thankyouplease
The Big Baby Book

I'll definitely be on the lookout for more titles from this publisher.

New Look for My Website!


I'm so excited that I just have to let everyone know. Staci from Blogging Bella Designs created a new look for my website. I had hoped this new look would be ready last year, but I had problems finding someone to tackle the job.

Staci did a wonderful job and I love the new look. Please visit http://ccmalandrinos.com/ and check it out. I would love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks!

Cheryl
