My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A fun and interesting story. Two young sisters eager to know what their cat is up to in the night attach a camera to his collar. They imagine many scenarios about the woods and the inhabitants, and the sisters are surprised by what they find. This book is a cute and fast read with nice illustrations. I like that there are some activities included at the end as well as some ideas to help foster conversation and thoughts with the little ones.

Dwarves' Dilemma, TheDwarves’ Dilemma, The by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Queen Mabel is regarded as the fairest in the Kingdom of Aleta. She judges fairness by using a mirror to see if the eyes of those asking for a ruling had the Sparkle of Fairness. Several people come to the Queen to see if she thinks certain situations are fair or not. One day, the Queen defers to Snow White, who is sent out to investigate the dilemma that the dwarves are having with Pippa. Snow White makes a discovery that alarms Queen Mabel. She vows from that day forward to make some corrections!

This is a super cute book that focuses on the science of mirrors, as well as the moral trait of fairness. The illustrations are very well done and young readers will recognize some of the characters from more popular fairy tales. Not to mention, there is a dragon! Another great read by this author!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Albert is a turkey on a turkey farm and it’s November. He’s becoming very concerned that all the people looking him over see him as food and not a pet. Albert would love to live a long healthy life making people happy but not on the dinner table! Then, Albert sees some hope. The President has just pardoned a turkey and wished him a long life. Maybe, just maybe, Albert can be pardoned too!!

This is a super cute book that is very timely! It discusses how turkeys are traditionally eaten at Thanksgiving, which gives the reader and opportunity to discuss with others or think for themselves about other options for a meal besides turkey. It also discusses voting, which also happens in November. The illustrations are very well done with lots of vivid colors. This is one of my all-time favorite children’s authors now that I’ve read several of her books. These are great to share with your kids/grandkids/daycare/preschool/etc and would make a great holiday gift!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Dwarves’ Dilemma is Lois’s twist on the fairy-tale of Snow White. With dragons and dwarves, queens and yes, a mirror and Snow White there is something to delight all kids. It is colourful and well written that kids just fall in love with the tale whether or not they understand the science or meaning behind them. My grandbabies did. So, grab your little or littler people and dig in.

It is a science class in a book with colourful illustrations to aid in the teaching. Lois has a knack for Science Folktales.

What does Snow White find? How will the Queen handle the Dwarves’ dilemma?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dream-Shifter is a unique and original tale aimed at those aged 7 to 12. This different tale follows a young girl Gwendolyn who is a dream-shifter, becoming the character that she dreams about.

Waking as her dream character causes all sorts of problems especially when it is hunting season. It is a dangerous time and one that she can’t avoid if she can’t become herself once again.

A magician, magic and a magical book maybe her only saviours.

Follow along as Gwendolyn learns about survival and herself along the way.

Lucas the Spy Cat is an absolutely adorable children’s book! It has lovely, full-color illustrations depicting Lucas, his family, and his animal friends shenanigans. Let’s face it, we all wonder what our critters get up to in instances such as this. My kiddo’s loved Jake and now they love Lucas! This author has always taken the extra step to make her books extra special and pertinent. She includes lessons, and fun, exciting ways to utilize those lessons with kids to really make them understand. She went above and beyond at the end of Lucas the Spy Cat by including a word find, pages where readers can come up with their own mystery, a page to create their own super spy, and a page where all the animals are hiding, and the reader can find them. The author even went as far as giving examples of fun ideas to get kids thinking, and using their creative thinking skills, even introducing us to the ‘real’ Lucas, and his sister Nemo. This was such a wonderful reading experience, and I can definitely recommend picking this book up.

Lucas the Spy Cat was such a wonderfully creative and fun read! I loved the activities in the back of the book as well. My kiddos and I loved every bit of this story, and the activities had us on our own magical games. Lucas goes out every night and his family is a bit curious as to what he’s up to. After attaching a camera to his collar and reviewing the footage, they can’t believe their eyes! My kids are 7 and 10, we all had a great time speculating what our own furry family members could be getting into after we go to sleep. This is such a cute book, I highly recommend picking it up to see what curious things this kitty gets into!

The book was sweet, educational, and a valuable read. I enjoyed this story, and I think many adults as well as kids will enjoy the story as well as the concept behind it! The educational talk about what the mirrors were, fascinated me. I enjoyed the quality of values and treating others with the same dignity you would want to be treated really stood out to me. Greatly admired that. Loved the colors and the pictures as well, really brought the story to life! Defiantly a wonderful read, I very much enjoyed it with all my heart!

Oh this was just the cutest story ever! I read it to my 3 year old and he loved it! The story was beautifully written with a wonderful rhyme to it. The illustrations were stunning and really brought the story alive. I loved how it can spark the imagination of young children about where Lucas the cat may go at night, what kind of adventures he might go on. I would definitely say this story is aimed at 5-7 year olds – I can imagine them writing their own Lucas the cat adventure stories! There are talking points at the end of the story along with pictures of the cat behind the inspiration for this story and a few activities for the children to complete! A lovely touch from the author!

Lucas’ family knows that he is not like other cats. Every night he leaves and does not come home until morning. His family has their own ideas as to what he is up and suspect that he is solving mysteries in the forest with other animals. Curious as to what Lucas does all night his family puts a camera on his collar to see if they can solve the mystery of where he goes and what he does every night. Does Lucas have a secret identity as a spy cat who solves mysteries?

I absolutely adored this book and found it a fun read. It is beautifully illustrated with animals having adventures and solving mysteries together. The end of the book contains fun activities that encourage learning while doing so in a creative and imaginative way. A must read for children of all ages!

What an entertaining story! Gwendolyn learns she is a dream-shifter. She experiences a series of misadventures trying to become herself again. This book was a cute read. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I will be reading this with my grandson. It deals with so many topics in such a gentle way. I loved her reaction when she found out she had to interview a funeral home director. Gwen is a strong protagonist. She has to overcome a lot. She knows what she wants and goes for it. The other characters are quite funny also. The whole story is a good read for middle schoolers. Quick read that they will enjoy. I hope the author will do more of these.

What a cute story that kind of teaches about the turkey pardoning done by the White House. I found it to be entertaining and full of bright pictures that children may enjoy. The story may start conversations about Thanksgiving and why turkey is eaten. Another book to make learning fun by this author. She has fast become one of my favorites when I look for books for my grandchildren.

What a cute story that teaches about fairness and accepting responsibility. Using a little of Snow White, the Dwarves and the Queen, the author reaches also about mirrors and the what, who and science of them. A fun, quick read for the kids. My grandson and I found it entertaining. He loves to ask lots of questions so this book started us down the rabbit hole of mirrors and the science of them. Colorful pictures, bite-size bits of the story for each section. An A+ read. We are fans of the author. Love the books she puts out. The kids learn and have fun doing it.

Very interesting story. I liked the concept and creativity behind this story. I kept thinking to myself, wouldn’t it be cool if dream shifters really were real. Poor Gwendolyn is having a time of it trying to turn back into a girl but sometimes with her attitude I think she should stay that way. Her parents and friend Wally are very supportive and helpful to her and that is the one things she definitely needs during this time. With Gwendolyn’s dream of becoming a journalist, she will stop at nothing to either become an elk journalist or a human journalist. You most definitely should always follow your dreams. Great read for young teens

The artwork in this book is really beautiful, it will definitely draw any child’s eye and interest. The story is so cute with Lucas’ owners wondering where he is sneaking off to at night and what he is getting up to. I like that we never truly find out what he is up to, its a secret between him and his woodland friends. The last page is very inspiring, and a great lesson to teach any child.

“Just because you can’t see it yet, doesn’t mean you won’t get there. So, never let go of your hopes and dreams because they can take you anywhere!”

It is very nice that at the end there are actives that parents can do with their children after reading, not only is the book fun to read its engaging.

Middle school student Gwendolyn is a dream-shifter. This means that when she dreams, she becomes what she dreams about, and she dreams about being different animals.

It’s elk hunting season, and she doesn’t know how to change back to a girl, or how to stay alive.

This was such a cute read! I love the rhyming scheme and the illustrations! The story was adventurous, and had a really good message at the end. My daughter loved looking at the pages but she’s a little too young for the story so she lost interest pretty quickly but I definitely plan on reading this to her again when she gets a little older! And the activities at the end were definitely a nice bonus as well! I highly recommend reading this to younger children!

This is the cutest story about Lucas. Lucas is a normal family cat except for at night. When he meows goodbye and just leaves. He disappears all night and returns in the morning. His family wants to see exactly where he goes, so they attach a camera to his collar. What they discover is the most surprising. Their normal cat is busy keeping their neighborhood safe from harm and being a friend to those in need.
I love that the story is not all that is included. There are extra pages to extend the fun. I also love that there is a website with even more activities.
I definitely will be getting a few copies of this book for my classroom library. I also will get more of the series. I absolutely love this story about Lucas and his friends!

We really enjoyed this book. Lucas is out all night on adventures and doesn’t come home until the sun comes up. So his family puts a spy collar on Lucas to see what he’s doing at night. As soon as Lucas gets home, he gets tucked into bed, and his human sister and mom take his collar to watch the video of what he is doing. It was absolutely adorable. We loved the puzzles at the end!

Very cute children’s book about the adventures of the family cat when he goes out at night. The kids are curious about what Lucas does at night so they put a camera on him to record what he does and then they spend the story speculating what adventures Lucas goes on. I love the rhyming that Shannon has done throughout the book and the sing-songy nature it gives to the story. The illustrations are very cute and whimsical. I absolutely love the ending…very cat-like 🙂

I love Lucas the Spy Cat! What a wonderful, fun story about Lucas the cat and what would seem his nighttime adventures. Curious on what those adventures entail, Lucas’ owners put a camera on his collar to see what Lucas is up to at night.

What adventure awaits and this story is for all ages and totally enjoyable and engaging. The great nieces and I love Lucas and at the turn on each page what comes next. The illustrations are absolutely beautiful and detailed. I also loved seeing the “Real” Lucas by the Author and what this story is based upon. How Sweet.
