What Squirels Do: The Squrirel Olympics -- By Hazel Nutt
This is a quite imaginative and fun book. I mostly enjoyed the pictures, especially the cover page with the different color squirrels are pretending the be the Olympic rings. It's cute and funny. This children's book is a rhyming book about how squirrels discover outdoor sports that are just like the Olympics. They Sprint, they jump, play tennis with acorns and even do pigeon curling. Hazel Nutt does a good job of creating the Squirrel Olympics with a unique view of animals play time and humans games. I would recommend this book to parents with small children. Thanks Hazel Nutt for writing a cool, interesting and fun little book about squirrels.

Review #19 Escape From The Forbidden Planet--by Julie Anne Grasso
This book has it all: Elves, evil clones, intergalactic travel, adventure, techie talk,science talk, the battle of good vs. evil and tons of food and dessert references that will make your mouth water while you read.
This book is about Elfin world that has a natural resource that other planets in the galaxy are after. The Elf people are betrayed by someone close to them so that they can gain power by selling the elf planets natural resource to beings of another planet called the Alexanders. From there adventure ensues for the main character Caramel Cinnamon. Caramel is left for dead on a forbidden planet. She tries to work her magic as only elves can to heal and to speak telepathically to others. Caramel has to go through many obstacles to help her in the evil fight against the Alexanders as she tries to save her planet...Will justice be restored or will the Alexanders of the galaxy take over reign of the Elfin planet? ... read and find out what happens in the adventures of Caramel Cinnamon.
This book is great for kids and adults alike. I enjoyed it because it had a great plot and it kept me wanting to read more as I got further into the story. I loved the sci-fi feel mixed with the fantasy world of elves that love their desserts. Julie Anne Grasso seems to take from her career of healing(nursing) and her husbands career of computer engineering and swirled them together with technology, science,elves and caramel to create this delicious book. It's part geeky, part science, and part fun, all brought together to become this awesome book called Escape From The Forbidden Planet. I would recommend this book to reading age kids and adults who like sci-fi kids books.
Definitely something different. I really enjoyed reading it!
I was given this book as a gift from the author for review. All my comments are my own and I was not paid for this review.
