Keep On Voting After The Election - Review

Joel Blackwell introduces the average citizen to the techniques used to approach their legislators so their voices and issues will be heard. The author shows you how to understand that the Perfect Political Triangle – constituent, lobbyist, and politician – is the strongest structure in politics that will make things happen when it all comes together.

While our vote at the ballot box is important, it is only the first step in getting what you want from your government. This book shows you how to use Four Essential Tools - the professional lobbying staff, money, the media and members of organizations - to persuade your US or state legislator to vote for an issue you are interested in.

This is a must have book for every individual, political organization and/or special interest/focus group that needs to affect public policy. It is a book that should be used in classrooms to teach students how to effectively get their government to meet the challenges in the future.

Blue Eagle Meets Double Trouble - Review

Blue Eagle Meets Double Trouble
By
Steven E. Jones



Steven E. Jones introduces young children to light suspense in this second addition to his popular Blue Eagle series.
Blue Eagle leaves Peaceful Valley for the day and the animals encounter two wolves who try to eat them. The small community of characters come together to defeat the hungry wolves. Blue Eagle comes back and takes the wolves away from his friends.
A fun to read book that teaches children the values of teamwork, determination, pride in oneself and that we are all unique and should be proud of our accomplishments.
The beautiful, vivid, water color illustrations guide you through this tale and bring the animals in Peaceful Valley to life. Steven E. Jones Jr. is a very talented illustrator who has captured the essence of the characters whose lives we are allowed to share.
The Blue Eagle books will have long life on the shelves in children’s libraries teaching them moral values for our time. This is a book that parents will also love to read with their children. Another great, must have book.

The Buggy That Boogied Away - Review

The Buggy That Boogied Away
By
Betsy B. Lee


Ms. Lee has published a book that addresses how children learn by repetition. “The Buggy That Boogied Away” is full of charm, colorful illustrations and a story rich in remembering a time long ago.

Children will learn and understand the use of repetition of words by reading, hearing and singing a song that repeats the story. The use of rhyming patterns and sequencing helps build the children’s reading comprehension and writing skills.

This book is definitely one for the teachers to have in their professional teaching library. Parents will also find this book useful and delightful to either read to their children or have the children read or sing the story to them. All in all, Ms. Lee has penned another great story that is entertaining and educational.
