The BookViral Review:
In another new adventure featuring Pippin the poodle, Julia Seaborn introduces her young audience to all things snow, with some fun facts about emu’s thrown in for good measure!
This exciting snowy tale gives both its young reader and their carer plenty of opportunity for conversation and reminiscence about their own snowy experiences and is crammed full of facts which create the perfect foundation for learning. Complimented by ‘Fun Questions’, ‘Fun Facts’ and a complimentary puzzle to boot, ‘Pippin goes Snowboarding’ is a versatile offering that conveys information in many ways, catering for different learning methodologies.
Seaborn seems to take advantage of every opportunity to teach, counting out chicks and dogs and introducing concepts such as ‘second’ and ‘third’, crafting her story mindfully to build knowledge in a non-threatening and inclusive manner.
As per her usual style, Seaborn packs her story with amusing twists, which are echoed perfectly by thoughtful artistry. However, this is not just a delightful tale. Seaborn weaves many lessons seamlessly between the pages. From failing to determination and success, from embarrassment and fear to reassurance, she demonstrates that relationships trump being the winner and that sharing time, advice and material possessions is the way to build lasting friendships.
Seaborn’s evident experience in working with children is evident in her writing-she really taps into the young mind-engaging them with her plentiful and fast-moving storyline and charismatic characters, complimented by emotionally touching imagery.
With the same furry friends popping up time and time again through the 4 books, lending familiarity and sense of security Pippin Goes Snowboarding is firmly recommended for stories at bedtime and independent reading.
The term epic has become too freely used in respect of Arthurian Fantasy Fiction but in the case of Godfrey’s Crusade it’s more than warranted with Mark Howard delivering the kind of rousing, large-scale adventure that marks the best sword and sorcery epics.
A highly inventive science fiction parody that is typical of Falardeau’s superb epic saga Wild Worlds Web is sure to live up to the expectations of fans who have read “The Alas League” and The Lost Ark”. It’s one of those rare reads that has so many original plot threads it seems a shame to spoil it by even reading a review beforehand!
The magical allure of time travel has held a fascination for the layman and scientist alike. Indeed, no well-read individual can think of time travel without their mind creeping back to H.G Wells.
A child’s imagination is a wonderful thing. The suspension of disbelief comes easy to them. As we get older we think in terms of our willingness to suspend our critical faculties and believe something surreal whilst sacrificing realism and logic for the sake of enjoyment.
Dusk creeps upon you as you make your way home, bringing with it the stillness and dark of night. As one sense shutters another opens, magnifying each whisper of wind-every shuffle on the pavement behind you.
The best you can bring to the reading adventure is your imagination, sense of humor, and your love of reading. Playing with a child with ASD can be enjoyable and enlightening. That playtime is also fertile ground for planting the seeds of reading.
