This book educates readers on the rescue process and promotes pet adoption. Oscar and Emmy Get Rescued is inspired by the author’s true adoption story of her two kittens, whom she met while volunteering at the animal shelter.

In this first book of the Oscar and Emmy Series, you’ll meet the cats, Mom who volunteers at the shelter, and her family, who decides to adopt Oscar and Emmy.
Terri Sabol is an accomplished children’s book author, renowned for her heartwarming and entertaining stories featuring the real-life adventures of her two beloved rescue kittens, Oscar and Emmy. Born and raised in Texas, Terri developed a love of writing and storytelling at a young age, and always dreamed of one day becoming an author. Thinking that was out of reach, she focused on her other dream… teaching.
After graduating from college with a Masters degree in education, Terri worked as an early childhood teacher, and it was during this time that her passion for picture books truly blossomed. She was inspired by the joy and wonder that children experienced when reading and listening to stories, and it was this love for inspiring young minds that led her to create her own series of children’s books.
Terri’s debut book, “Oscar and Emmy Get Rescued”, was published in 2016, and told the heartwarming story of how she came to adopt her two kittens from the animal shelter where she volunteered. The book was an instant hit with children and parents alike, and it quickly became clear that there was a demand for more stories featuring Oscar and Emmy and to help educate children on the importance being involved in pet care.
Over the years, Terri has continued to write new books in the series, each one capturing the unique personalities and quirks of her two adventurous cats. Her books not only entertain children, but also promote the values of compassion and kindness towards animals, as well as the importance of rescue and adoption.
In addition to her Oscar and Emmy series, Terri has also written several other books showing off her writing skills, including “Green With Envy” and “Kneading a Winning Idea”.
When she’s not writing, Terri can be found spending time with her two rescue kitties, Oscar and Emmy. She also loves travelling and exploring new places and visiting old favorites, all the while taking inspiration for her next book. Through her stories, Terri hopes to inspire children to explore the world around them, to embrace their imaginations, to never give up on their goals, and to always be kind and compassionate towards others, especially animals.

Ants are carrying bleeding heart fern seeds to their anthill. They stop to nibble something off the end of a seed. When Loretta bends down to investigate, a seed-like pod falls from the branch above her head. The ants take that to their nest, too.
What could it be? The branch over her head has no flowers. Seeds come from flowers. Where could this seed have come from?
As she watches, a branch starts walking. It must be an insect. But, insects don’t make seeds. Insects drop eggs. The ants take the eggs to their nest, just like the seeds. They even nibble on them, just like seeds.
What are the ants doing with the seeds and eggs in their anthill?

A simply fantastic book about raising an Indian child in an American society. How to go about interweaving the two cultures and still embracing the original heritage. Wonderfully educational even for adults. Simply beautiful illustrations and story.

The Courage series just keeps getting better and this book is no exception to that. Beefy is learning how to deal with his emotions and rather than taking things out on others, his new friends invite him to help them. The illustrations are great and the story is wonderful.
This is such a wonderful book with lovely illustrations for children . It is about all the animals and insects and the activities which happen by the river and how the rivers and streams are vital in the life of these animals . It’s a great learning experience for children. I loved the book and would recommend it to all the kids , especially the younger ones .

This is such a fun book!! First off, the illustrations in this book practically jump off the page!! They are very brilliant and vivid, very eye-catching and colorful. Next, I love the play on words for this character from the author’s last name!
Gadrella is a witch but she’s tired of the same old look. She doesn’t want a pointy hat or a black cat or all the typical things that a witch is “supposed to have”. She starts to make some changes and at the next meeting, her friends think she is a monster…that is until they try her new potion!
Kids will love this holiday themed book! It’s a great way to talk about differences and how it’s ok to break the mold sometimes.

What a nice story about being kind! I like how they are excited to be kind. It’s supposed to be for 7-9 year old but my 6 year old granddaughter enjoyed it and I’m sure it would be good for even a preschool child. I liked the activity prompts at the end. Easy to do in a classroom or at home. I definitely recommend this book to read to your child.

Cam Creates a Hero (Courage Tales Series) by Dagmara Sitek. This book is a little heavier than most for kids but its about a very real subject. Its about Cam who after hearing a news story about a 8 year old girl getting hurt by her step mom and ending up in the hospital, Cam wants to try to help her and others like her. He decides he’s going to build a robot to help protect kids but the outcome is not what he imagined. He goes to sleep defeated but has a dream the robot is real and is very helpful. The robot tells Cam to keep drawing and those drawings will help. So he does and he comes up with a book about helping kids! This is a very neat book that is unfortunately needed in this day and age. This is a wonderful book for kids that are a bit older than can understand more and it teaches believing in yourself and never giving up on your dreams. It also teaches children to be thankful to live in a safe, healthy environment.
This is such a cute Halloween book to read to little ones. It teaches them it’s okay to be from everyone else and shows how everyone else can accept who you are. I love Tricia Gardella books. They always have a great story to them and the illustrations are amazing.
Cute book for kids! My boys would’ve loved this series when they were younger. Camp has started out rainy and boring, now a missing trophy stands to threaten the fun games. Can Dylan and his trusty detective kit find who stole it? Tag along for the adventure and friendship, and learn the surprising reason the trophy was taken! This book is part a series but completely stands on its on as well.

The author perfectly captures the bittersweet nature of these transitions—military family– mixing feelings of sadness and loss with hope and acceptance.
One of the standout features of this book is its ability to honor the emotions of military children, validating their experiences while also helping them recognize that their feelings are normal and shared by many. The narrative encourages young readers to find comfort in the fact that moving, while often difficult, can lead to new adventures and opportunities for growth.

One of the book’s most commendable aspects is its willingness to tackle complex emotions such as anxiety, sadness, and the excitement of new beginnings. The narrative encourages young readers to acknowledge their feelings while also highlighting the constructive nature of friendship as a source of comfort and strength. The way Grace learns to adapt to her new environment and make new friends beautifully illustrates that while change can be daunting, it can also lead to personal growth and discovery.
The illustrations, coupled with the engaging text, make the book suitable for children aged 7 to 10, capturing their attention and sparking their imaginations. The large print format further enhances accessibility for younger readers or those who may struggle with typical text sizes.

This is a delightful children’s book that takes readers on a heartwarming journey filled with bravery and friendship through the eyes of Kody, a spirited dinosaur. The narrative artfully captures the challenges and fears of being separated from a loved one, all while imparting valuable life lessons.
The author does an excellent job of making Kody a relatable character, embodying both excitement and nervousness as he navigates through an unfamiliar environment. Perry-Knights skillfully illustrates Kody’s emotional journey, teaching young readers about the importance of courage and resilience in the face of challenges.
One of the standout aspects of this book is its ability to address themes of fear and discovery in a manner that is accessible and engaging for children. The lessons about embracing new experiences and overcoming obstacles resonate well, making it not just an entertaining read but also an educational one.

I Miss My Friend And That’s Okay: Axel’s Story is another heartwarming story, told from Axel’s perspective. Axel’s mum is a soldier in the army and their family moves around a lot. Due to this he misses his best friend Kerrington. Even though there are miles between them they keep in contact through writing letters to each other. I liked that the story is written in the format of letters. The colourful illustrations bring the story to life as Axel shares his new experiences with his best friend whilst learning it’s okay to miss them just as it is ok to make new friends as well. As with the first book, I Move A Lot and That’s Okay: Axel’s Story it was an interesting read and a valuable story for anyone moving at a young age.

Axel as the title suggests a 7-year-old boy learning that being uprooted and moving all the time is not all bad. It teaches skills to deal with moving to new places and experiencing the fears and scariness that comes with the unknown. It also shows just how resilient kids of that age are. Kyle’s mixed emotions and anxieties are real are all valid when he must move again because his mum is in the Army. Why does he have to move again? Why can’t he stay with his friends? Where will his new home be? What will it be like? Will he make friends? What will his new school be like? I Move A Lot and That’s Okay: Axel’s Story is a delightful heartwarming colourful picture book is seen through Axels eyes as he shares his concerns and fears as he is helped by his family to overcome them and learns to see them and embrace them as an adventure.

This is such a great gift for any kid that is getting a little brother or a sibling period. It’s a great book to be able to read with the sibling and new baby or if the sibling is old enough for them to read to the new baby. It highlights all the great things you get to do for your younger sibling. It shows you what family is about. I would definitely recommend this book for any family that’s adding another sibling to the mix.

I read this book with my two sons – ages 6 and 3. This was a sweet story, perfect for the spooky season.
A review from an actual kid: D (age 6) – ”Gadrella did lots of different things but she still ended up happy.” S (age 3) – “It was spooky with witches and potions!”
This is a really cute story about a stuffed animal who gets separated from his boy and the adventures he has to get back to him. Kody wakes up on the airplane being carried but it’s not Axel who’s carrying him! How will Kody get back to Axel?! Perry-Knights does a wonderful job of showing children it’s okay to be scared and go through a gamut of emotions. I loved the creativity of this story and the wonderfully bright illustrations. And it’s always fun to think of what our stuffed animals do when we aren’t around 😉 Reviewed by @meggs1717
