Paw Patrol: Break the Ice / Everest Saves the Day
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This 2-in-1 book was a school book club pick for January. The first story we read was Break the Ice. I suspect it follows a TV episode as most of the books do, though we've yet to see this one, making it a pleasant surprise overall. The second story, Everest Saves the Day is a very summarized version of the episode when Jake and Everest meet for the very first time. Overall, both are cute and overly simplified for learning readers. With the shows popularity, it makes and easy pick for a child's favorite.

Palace Pets: Snuggle Buddies
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
My daughter loved this book, but she loves Palace Pets and is only in preschool, so learning to read books are ideal to her. This book has very brief description for each page, but doesn't really tell a story overall. Actually, these pet's full stories can be found in the Palace Pets 5-Minute Stories collection, which we're currently reading. Personally, I prefer having the entire story, even if it's a short story. I can see my daughter at least enjoying this one while she's still learning to read. After that, it'll probably get put aside fairy quickly while the 5-Minute Stories will stick around longer.
