Heather Grace's book BUBBLE MUD AND OTHER
POEMS is a charming book for young children. The colorful
illustrations, oddball, and quirky poems are sure to keep your child's
attention. It also features over forty web links to educational
websites where children and their parents can learn more about the
words and views that are used in this creative book. I loved the
parent/teacher manual that accompanies every book, and my four and five
year old enjoyed the activities such as coloring pages, puzzles, and
word games. Read BUBBLE MUD AND OTHER POEMS by Heather Grace and find
out what happens to all your old missing socks, or learn what little
boys would rather do besides getting married when they grow up! The
many poems are told from a child's perspective and you'll enjoy reading
them with your child. Such poems include: playing hide and seek,
learning how to do things on your own, taking a wild ride with a cool
grandma, and taking a bubble mud bath. A child's mind is a complex
place filled with the ability to imagine some of the weirdest subjects,
and I believe that Ms. Grace has found her niche. This reviewer, and
her children, highly recommends this book.--ASTORYWEAVER'S
Book Reviews
Hi kids! Did you ever want to know how to
... make friends with a monkey? find a missing sock? survive a day with
a groovy granny? Or did you ever wonder ... why there's always such a
mess under your bed? what happens when you wake up with a zoo on your
back? where butterflies go when summer is over? what boys would do
rather than getting married? And do you enjoy playing games like word
search and mix up? In short: do you want to have a whooping great time
with quirky poems, beautiful drawings and lots of surprises? Then
"Bubble Mud and Other Poems" is just what you need.

Children will be delighted with these cute
poems written by Heather Grace. Grace gives her young readers 17 poems
that will be sure to bring out the giggles and tickles. Kym Jones'
illustrations give the poems even more giggles, with her bright colors
and fun characters; this is a book that parents and children will love
to discover together. Besides the wonderful poems, Grace also has
provided her readers with word searches, activity sheets, and coloring
pages. I printed out the sheets for my son, and he loves them. One of
the coloring pages now hangs on my fridge. The activity sheets I
admired. They are fun, but at the same time educational. One of the
sheets is an understanding page; questions and answers pertaining to
the poetry that the child just read. Grace then provides for the
parents/teachers urls of educational resources. This is a perfect book
for homeschooling children, and I highly recommend it. It is released
next month, so it is perfect timing. Children will love the poems, and
parents will love the worksheets that are included.--Danielle
