Publications International Kids Books
Posted by Amy on November 19, 2008
We have a good dozen or so Publications International Electronic Books lying around our house. Wait, I take that back. They are all in our daughter’s bedroom and she reads them in the morning when she wakes up. She’s got them stacked in the bottom of her nightstand.
I have said this before about these books and I’ll say it again, they make GREAT, inexpensive gifts (under $20 each). Personally, I think these are great books for the holidays. They are a must-put-under-the-tree gift. Grandparents, especially - if you are stumped on what to get your grandchild, we highly recommend scanning the list of Publications International books online or at retailers near you (Walmart, Kohl’s, Target, Costco, Sam’s Club, etc.) To make it extremely easy for you, there is even a special holiday site set up that showcases multiple popular titles and are readily available for purchase. Quick and easy. That’s how I like my holiday shopping.
We’re pleased to offer three popular PI Interactive Books for giveaway. Here are the titles and a bit of a description. Giveaway entry details can be found below.
High School Musical Charm Book
Sing along to popular songs and learn exciting facts about their favorite superstars! Includes a MP3-like charm player and five charms. Insert a charm into the player to hear a snippet from one of five hit songs. The player has a clip that can be attached to a purse or backpack, so kids can take their favorite tunes with them. Features photos of the stars and lyrics for each song. Recommended for ages 5 to 8 years.
Little Star’s Big Adventure
Grab your flashlight and get ready to embark on a great adventure. Children cast shadows in the book or on the wall by shining the flashlight through shapes, cut-outs, and pop-ups throughout the story. The flashlight features five sound buttons that correspond to the story, adding more interactivity to the experience. Recommended for ages 3 to 7 years.
HSM Let’s Text Book
Exchange text messages with your favorite superstars! Throughout the story, a note on the page instructs kids to enter a 3-digit code into a PDA-like messaging pad. Press “receive,” and a text message from the star scrolls across the screen and is read aloud. The messages contain comments and questions related to the story, allowing the child to text back responses. Recommended for ages 6 years and up.

Blankie (the book)
Posted by Eric on July 31, 2007
My daughter loves her blankie. She also loves the board book Blankie by excellent children’s illustrator/author Leslie Patricelli. Blankie (as well as her other books) are must have books for any parents with little readers.

Encyclopedia Prehistorica: Dinosaurs
Posted by Eric on July 16, 2007
They sure didn’t make pop-up books like this when I was a kid. Robert Saubda & Matthew Reinhart’s Encyclopedia Prehistorica: Dinosaurs is a more like a stunning work of art or an engineering marvel than it is like a kids book. This is a rare book that is just as cool for adults as the children that it is targeted towards. The pages are sturdy with no pull-tabs to break, and the 35+ intricate pop-ups will have kids screaming, laughing, and roaring with delight.
