On the eastern cape of southern Africa a land existed for but a brief moment in time, formed by a group of cultural castaways, strengthened via European investment and terrorized by dark forces. Amid this searing slice of savannah, male ambition, feminine yearning and the hunger of an ancient evil clash … with catastrophic results.

Young readers will enjoy celebrating the animals’ birthday ! Every page is a new discovery as the children learn skills in the process. I love the interactivity and sensory stimulation of this board book : children learn and practice tying, zipping, sticking, buttoning and snapping. All the adorable bright and colorful illustrations make the reading fun as children recognize all the farm animals. It is very engaging and fun !

I really loved Kat Chen’s previous board book Play with Me, and Play Outside with Me is just as cute. Following the same concept of “playdate in a book”, this book is an interactive read, inviting the young reader to play time.

The White Lotus meets Knives Out meets Crazy Rich Asians in this devilishly entertaining debut novel: both a sophisticated locked-room mystery in the tradition of Agatha Christie, and a provocative literary whodunit for the twenty-first century.

Yes ! Kelly Leigh Miller’s world is extravagant and kawaii, full of incredible and magically cute creatures.
