MY REVIEW:
I adore this book so much. There is so much to see and so much to learn. I smile every time I see that lion. It is captivating. I cannot stop looking at the cover, it is amazing. That is only the outside, what is inside is even more amazing! Animal Bites is a fun way to title this book, as my son pointed out, because this book provides us bites of information. I adored the fact that there is a key in the front cover as how to use the book. This allows the reader to easily find areas of interest and go directly to that spot to read. There are so many categories that there is certainly something of interest for everyone. Also, the table of content, activities and resources, glossary and index all add to details within this book. These are great components of book that can be discussed and taught to your little ones.
What I honestly love the most is that the book is great for reluctant readers or those that struggle with reading. The little tidbits of information are not overly wordy or difficult to read and the tidbits are accompanied by gorgeous, vibrant and fascinating photos. Because of all the various categories it allows the reader to read things that are of interest to them. They can easily jump around in the book and still be completely entertained. I must have said "WOW" more than a dozen times while reading this book with my son.
This is one of those books that belongs in a child's home library. It is great for car ride and to create bonding and snuggle while you and your child delight in the sight and information of nature. 5 stars

Juris "J.P." Prudence always wondered if her parents named her Juris because they knew that she was destined to become a lawyer. Her parents probably never expected that she would become a lawyer at just eleven years old and use her law degree to change history. Last year, JP and her best friends, Sofia “Sofie” Flores-Ramirez, Isabel “Izzy” Carrington, and Madeline “Maddy” Rosenfeld, finished the law program that they started at the National Kids Leaders Academy at the early age of five years old. Despite the fact that they are only eleven years old, they are now real lawyers. Since passing the bar exam, they have not done anything to put their law degrees to use, that is, until the day that J.P. and her best friends form a law firm to change the law for kids.
MY REVIEW:
A great story that keeps children engaged all the way through. I love that it offers an important message about education and social change. It allows children to imagine the possibilities that life has to offer and it illustrates that they have a big role in this world and they can do amazing things. It is a sweet and positive book for young readers. 4.5 stars
Kelev, a lively black Labrador retriever, lives with an orthodox Jewish family in Pittsburgh's Squirrel Hill neighborhood. One-year old Kelev learns of his Judaism from his neighbor beagle buddy, and starts thinking about becoming a rabbi--a natural role because he already wears a black coat. He teaches the other neighborhood Jewish pets about their obligations to make the world a better place and also invents a device, the Yidometer, that measures one's fidelity to Judaism. But Kelev ultimately abandons the Yidometer because he concludes that Judaism, with its richness and complexity, cannot be reduced to a single number.
Kelev serves as a role model for humans who can learn to curtail their capacity for cruelty by observing dogs' innocence.
