Children are books best critics
If you're on the look out for a good summer read for kids, CNN.com has provided some great suggestions. The best part is their reviews come from some pretty reliable resources... children!
Children and parents may have different ideas of what makes a good read, so CNN.com turned towards three experts to hear their thoughts on a variety of newly released children's books. Eight-year-old Andrew Oglesby, six-year-old Rosa Williams, and five-year-old Kaya Wheatley have all read a handful of books and are now sharing what they think other kids will like and what maybe wasn't so great.
Selections included "See How They Run", a book by Susan E. Goodman and Elwood H. Smith on the presidential electoral process, "Scaredy Squirrel: At the Beach" by Melanie Watt, a story about a squirrel who overcomes his fear of the ocean, and Geoffrey Hayes' "Benny and Penny: Just Pretend", which is the story of a brother who learns that playing with his little sister can be a lot of fun.
BoardBuzz applauds these children critics for sharing their thoughts and hopefully getting others excited about reading. Check them out and see what you think!
