I will keep watching your blog for more useful information.<BR/>Irene J Harvey<BR/>i.j.h@live.co.uk<BR/>http://eloquentbooks.com/WilliamtheFairgroundCar/htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845676227863194905.post-11259345462736026532009-01-06T21:57:00.000-06:002009-01-06T21:57:00.000-06:00Thanks for letting everyone know about this!

I am really out of the loop when it comes to television shows....We generally stick to DVD's. BUT, that's not to say we wont watch a good t.v. show. Not long ago, my boys went through a stage when they wanted to watch Curious George on t.v. all the time. It was actually really cute and very educational!<BR/><BR/>Well, thanks again Karen! I just love your blog! GREAT stuff!Homeschool Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17694907600031297990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845676227863194905.post-91842297779452597132009-01-06T07:14:00.000-06:002009-01-06T07:14:00.000-06:00Thanks for the link Susan!

I was very hesitant to say anything bad about any children's book, much less one as popular as Olivia -- I'm trying to keep the blog pretty focused on our favorites, so I can just gush about the ones we love. <BR/><BR/>I don't know why Olivia didn't grab us, I tend to agree that it feels a little mature for my little guys. Although, little ones pretending to be mature may be what it's about -- you know the 5 year old going on 25? or 45? I haven't read it in a while and we should pull it back out soon.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07398765438599269210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845676227863194905.post-80156285907249281962009-01-05T22:52:00.000-06:002009-01-05T22:52:00.000-06:00Karen, that is so interesting that Olivia is not a...Karen, that is so interesting that Olivia is not among your favourites. It wasn't mine either. (My review is here in case you want to read it:<BR/>http://thebookchook.blogspot.com/2008/11/book-review-olivia.html )<BR/>I came to the inclusion that it had been written very much for adult buyers. However, the art work was wonderful.BookChookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06230711251425187241noreply@blogger.com
