In the end, it’s another Razzle-Dazzle lollipop that saved the day! It’s a fun book yet Little Penguin hasn’t really learned a lesson because he was able to cheer his friend up with another lollipop.

These books are full of adventure! My kids are really happy with all the selections this month. There were some things to learn from each story and they even came with beautiful illustrations that kept my kids hooked. The jetpack story is their favorite! It had them working with their imagination. They also realized that to be able to fight boredom, it will always be up to them to find something that they can do like inventing something or involving themselves in projects or even games. Overall, everybody is happy with all the books, and most especially, the learnings that we got from this set of fantastic books!
