Kid at Heart: An Aunt Reviews a Kid's Book- Will You Be My Sunshine by Julia Lobo and illustrated by Nicola Slater

I thought it might be fun to review a kids book on here... this has been my favorite to read to my niece because it's just so cute. The sayings on the inside are really sweet and if you're looking for a good book to bring to a baby shower... highly recommend this one!

The cover of it just looked absolutely gorgeous and I saw it on sale at Barnes and Noble when my mom was looking for books for the baby... and I said "Ohhh this cover is really pretty." We didn't know anything about it other than the cover being pretty... but we bought it based on that.

It's written very cute also. Basically it's just a mom and a baby mouse asking "will you be my sunshine" and saying "Yes!" and then saying a cute little saying after it. They say more than just the "Will You Be My Sunshine" but it's all very cute.

The illustrations are gorgeous as well. They have a lot of different skies and they all look so pretty and the mice that are the main characters are just soo soo cute. It's a really, really sweet book. It's one you could read over and over again and you can't help but smile at it... it's just so so cute!

The pages are cardboard, so it's easy for toddlers to grab it and read it or ask you to read it and flip through the pictures. It's really easy.

The book is just a sweet book- like the "Will You Be My Sunshine" in the title implies. It's just asking "Will You Be My____" on every page and saying "Yes I will be that because I love you!" (not the words, its better written than that... but I don't want to ruin it!)   It's just very much a "Lovey" book. It shows how much the two mice love each other and in turn showing how much whoever is reading the book to the baby loves them. It's just one of those books that gets you emotional while reading it... but not in a sad way like some books... just a very sweet book. It's a nice one to read to your loved ones.

It's also an easy book to do voices for... which is always a plus. It's definely fun to do cute voices with a book... and this is a good one for that.

Hopefully this was helpful for you guys!

Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles about Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
