Review # 1 was written on 2018-04-27 00:00:00 Jocelyn Laurin I opened up this book by Anna Dewdney and it seemed like the missing key to my heart. It made me smile and it made me think about the shopping trips i used to take with my mother as a child. I am now eighteen and no longer a litte girl but reading this book made me feel like one. Even for a five minute read i still wanted to examen every little picture and take the time to write a review. This book was stashed away in my items for garage sales but i think i am going to keep it for my children in the future. I may be mistakeing but i think i read somewhere that Anna Dewdney had died and if thats the case then i guess that as the days go by its another author lost. All the memories that Anna Dewdney gave back to me were timeless and so are her Lallma Lallma books and i cannot wait to hand down the one book that i have to my children who i hope and pray loves them as much as i do. We love you Anna Dewdney! Hope you are enjoying Heaven and rest in peace...

Review # 2 was written on 2016-01-01 00:00:00 Scott Gliem My face when my kid wants me to read him this book, which happens pretty much every day. It's the first day of a new year, and I figure that makes it as good a day as any to start keeping track of the many, many books I read with my son Jayden. Though most of the books on his shelf are 50 pages or less, I have read most of them enough times that they may as well be Gone with the Wind or one of the other of the overlong tomes that I have reviewed. Anyway, the first book up this year is Llama Llama Mad at Mama, one of the sequels in an uneven series about a boy llama who finds plenty of drama in every daily situation and can be counted on to burst into a fit around page 25 of every book he's in. This time, mean Mama Llama insists on dragging little Llama out shopping and makes the rookie mistake of promising him a "treat" when the errands are through. Llama gets impatient for the treat and dumps all of Mama's groceries onto the supermarket floor. Jayden loves the Llama books, I presume because they tap into real fears and anxieties that kids experience. I think this is one of the weakest in the series--trite rhymes, teaches kids they should be patient with their parents because their parents will buy them ice cream, etc.--but as luck would have it, it is probably Jayden's favorite. This is the first, but certainly not the last time that I expect to read it in 2016...
