Review # 1 was written on 2015-10-12 00:00:00 Darryl Grubbs Started out great, then went downhill. There were a few odd transitions that didn't make much sense to me. First he's reading... then he's racing bikes and appeasing baby giants? Kinda strange! Wild About Books is much better!

Review # 2 was written on 2008-10-05 00:00:00 Jerson Perdo WOW! Booklady has found a fun new book! ☺ I really enjoyed reading it aloud today! Whether you have a young booklover, or even a non-reader -- old or young -- you are sure to be tickled by Born to Read. Written all in rhyme with bright, delightful pictures which adults and younger audiences will want to savor many times, this is a book worth owning--not to mention there are references to, and pictures of, other children's literature favorites. My prediction is this is a book some will be learning by heart...and parents won't even mind. 'Passing by the Pizza Place, Sam spied a poster: CYCLE RACE! Right away, his head was spinning, Filled with thrilling dreams of winning... When the pack was lost from view, Sam paused to read a poem or two, Popped a wheelie just for fun, And finished up as number one. "Here's my secret," Sam decreed. "Readers win and winners read." P.S. Thanks for the tip on this Krista! I was the one who requested the Oklahoma City Library system order this book and therefore also the first one to get to read it here locally. ☺ Now I need to check out the author's other books!
