#StoryOwlsReviews: When I'm Feeling - series by Trace Moroney

  As usual, there is a story behind these books. One of our friends, on their (then) recent trip to Japan, had picked up some second hand books for their (then-future) son. So when we had a haul session, I chanced upon a book titled “When I feel Scared”. It has a picture of a very endearing bunny, and each page described, in the best way possible, when one feels scared. Like when we’re bullied, or when we see an object we cannot recognize etc. All from the bunny’s perspective.   The book then goes on to acknowledge fears. I instantly fell in love with this book. My daughter was just about a year old, and didn’t really care about being scared. She was the most fearless in the family. But somehow the book caught my attention.  It is part of a series of six books, that talk about basic emotions that we go through daily: Angry, Scared, Loved, Happy, Sad and Kind. These books, with very simple, relate-able illustrations, convey what the emotion means. T...

#StoryOwlsReviews The Lion King

World Book Day just passed by. Our earlier goal was to start our Book Review series on this blog on that auspicious day. However, the work week got hectic and so Storyowls bring you the first book review, a couple of days late. Expect a book review every week henceforth :)  The Book: The Lion King The Author: Don Ferguson Appropriate age group : 3 to As long as you want to read! The first time I heard about this book was when I was tuned into Radio and they were playing "Hakuna Matata"... I fell in love with the concept of 2 words turning into a problem free philosophy. Most of us would be familiar with the movie. The book pretty much is a summary of the movie. Lion King is all about this young lion cub Simba who is born as a future king to the animals of the Pride Rock! He is quite a carefree, brave guy who enjoys going on adventures, with his friend Nala a lioness cub, to prove that he can handle everything but then keeps falling into trouble.  ...

Stories in the park series: Stories *-ing Birds

Another weekend gone! Time has been flying faster than the Concorde! This week we were busy getting kids ready, to get ready for school. Pranathi’s son has the first day of his first school today! The weekend before the one gone by,  we had a fun story telling session in Cubbon Park! It was a lovely, magical section of the park, just off the beautiful Red Brick library. We were under the raintrees and cotton trees, so the green grass had specks of almost cloud like cotton everywhere. The shade of the trees made everyone forget that it was a really hot day! We had two stories for our young clients. The first one was a classic, “The Best Nest” by E.L. Reid. It has been a favourite book for us, and Shilpa was the proud owner of her own copy, one she’s been reading since she was a child! The second one was a fun rendition of “The Birds and Pancakes”. As our little clients and their children started arriving, they all settled comfortably under the shade of trees, we start...
