Confuzzled Books

If you are wondering what kinds of books I review and events I host, this little section is the place to look. Books I love to read: Children's, Young Adult, Paranormal and Fantasy books. Books I like to read: General Fiction, Romances, Religious Fiction, Mysteries and Biographies. So those are the genres of books I will generally review. If you send me a book outside of those areas, I'll consider it, but it may not fit my tastes. Reviews will take about 2 months to post; I try to post them around the time the book is released. On giveaways: Sending me a signed book to give away on the site is a great way to get your book noticed. I do a "mystery book" giveaway about every 2 weeks, where I read the book and twitter about it without revealing its title, then reveal what I've been reading and give it away. The whole event takes a couple weeks, and I feature the giveaway book on my blog for most of that time.

My Little Pet Dragon (A fun picture book for children 3-6!) - Scott Gordon
A child receives a pet dragon for Christmas in this picture book written for the author’s son, who has autism.

 

The book had outstanding graphics with short sentences on each page, telling a charming story .  A good book for those just learning to read. It is a cute picture book and I think the fact that author, Scott Gordon, is planning to make the dragon, Ness, into a series of books.

 

My only 2 nitpicks is : One, I that I wanted more description and more story with the graphics being so cool.  Two, there is a similar picture book called Me And My Dragon by David Biedrzycik that I love as well, but My Little Pet Dragon ends differently.

 

Here’s hoping there are more books with Ness and his friends.  I love dragons and I think this would be a great introduction to fantasy for kids.
