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!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...
