Little One Books - A Review and Giveaway!

As you all know, we LOVE books at our house!  Bookstores can be overwhelming at times – so many books to choose from!  That’s what I love about Little One Books.  It’s easy to search by age to find a great book for your child.  I also love the personal reviews they post for each book.  Here is a little information about their company.

Joan McCoy and Barney Cohen have five grandchildren under the age of six. They started a web-based store because they saw an unmet need in the area of children’s media. Little One Books only carries quality books, music, and video, for children birth through age five. As they looked for books, music and videos for their own grandchildren, they were overwhelmed by the number of products.  The search would have been so much easier had someone been able to guide them. That's why they created Little One Books - to help others make informed choices among the vast amount of material available for young children today.

Barney and Joan have personally selected and reviewed each and every item that Little One Books carries. The Little One Books staff tells our customers why we have selected these products in the “Why we chose” section of our individual product pages. The Little One Books site is organized by age, and each product is matched to what we believe is the youngest appropriate age.

I was allowed to pick a book from their website to review.  There were so many great choices!  They have the Llama Llama series, which is a favorite at our house, and many other great books.  I finally decided to go with ALL ABOARD!  A Travelling Alphabet by Bill Mayer.  This book is great!  It’s definitely coffee table worthy, which isn’t usual for children’s books.  The book travels through the alphabet, with each page highlighting a different letter.  The letters are slightly hidden in the pictures – The letter A is formed by the loading ramp of a cruise ship (All Aboard), the letter B is formed by the arches of a bridge.  The last page of the book “reveals” the letters on each page.  Because of the search factor, I think this book has the ability to grow with your child.  I know it will be one of the books we keep simply because of the great artwork! 

Little One Books has an amazing selection of quality books!  They also have a great promotion going on right now.  If you buy any two books from Little One Books, you can get the Good Night CD for free!  Use code goodnight at checkout to receive your free CD.
