Review From Here

My Review:

Being the mom of two little girls ages 4 and 5, I am always looking for books to read to them that are both entertaining and educational.  This book fits both of these nicely.

Both of my daughters loved the illustrations and the size of the book is wonderful because it is perfect for little hands to hold on their own.  The rhyming makes this story an easy one to memorize and is fun for the entire family.  I recommend this book along with the two others in the series – your kids will love them!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Carol Zelaya is a former nurse, recently widowed, and mother of two grown children. She grew up in the Chicago area, where she eventually met and married her husband and where they raised a family. Having relocated to Oregon in 1996, Zelaya began her love affair with nature and its beautiful creatures. Inspired by her surroundings, she started taking pictures and writing. Writing poetry led to writing three children’s books, of course, in rhyme. Zelaya’s Emily the Chickadee books are the true story of the special bond between a tiny bird and a little girl and the true meaning of family.

Carol is now moving to the San Diego area to be near her children. You can visit her online at http://www.emilythechickadee.com/.

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Read Emily Waits for Her Family and follow the true story of the special bond between a tiny bird and a little girl, from first meeting to leaving, from new life to old friends. This story is told in a timeless, three-part series, with an easy-reading rhyme, and is certain to delight and touch your heart.
