Good Morning, World! - Book Review 

by  Create With Joy


When you look at the world, do you see it through rose-colored glasses? When you look at a glass of water, do you see a glass as half empty or half full?
No matter what your age or perspective, you are sure to find a kindred spirit in  Good Morning, World!  by Mrs. D.
Good Morning, World!  is a delightful children's book about Baby Thomas and his Grandpa - two individuals who see the world from a vastly different perspective! The contrast in their viewpoints is highlighted one beautiful sunny day when Grandma sends them to the park for a stroll.
The positive perspective of the optimist is personified in exuberant Baby Thomas, who is excited by everything that he sees! Every creature, big and small, that Baby Thomas meets with his friend. Everything on his path, he greets with joy! By the end of his stroll, Baby Thomas has collected a cap-full of memories!
Not so with poor, pessimistic Grandpa (who - in all fairness - is awakened from his slumbers to push the exuberant noisy Baby Thomas around the park!) The sun is too hot. The flowers make him sneeze. And that is only the beginning of Grandpa's walk-in-the-park woes ...
Good Morning, World!  is educational without being didactic - but lines like "The sun is very hot! It feels like a boiling pot! "Are only half the fun. Eladziem perfectly captures the essence of this story with her ​​emotive illustrations! I loved pouring over the details in every picture. Grandpa's and Baby Thomas's expressions speak a thousand words!
Good Morning, World!  is a book you will enjoy reading to your children - and your young readers will enjoy reading on their own! It's a book that makes you feel happy inside. I have read  Good Morning, World!  several times since its arrival for the sheer joy of it!
I rate this book 5/5 stars.

Dog Ear Publishing releases "The City and the Old Kittens House Cat" by Mrs. D.
This simple but touching fable about being welcoming to others and sharing Equally works well for reading aloud as a family or for curling up with in a cozy corner.
Galloway, NJ (PRWEB) October 31, 2013
Christmas time means time spent with family, both the two-legged and four-legged variety. Nyda, adopted when she was just a little lost calico kitten, has led a calm, uneventful life with her human family for years. In this charming new children's book,  everything changes when the family's older daughter brings two playful kittens home to visit the day before Christmas. Although Nyda finds them annoying, Mickey and Jack are not the spoiled kittens she imagines.
"The City and the Old Kittens House Cat" tells the story of Nyda and her dislike of the visitors, who arrive with pretty collars with bells that make noise. They go everywhere. She defends her food dish and gives them dirty looks as they play under the Christmas tree. It's not until Nyda hears about their rescue from a harsh life on the streets with a sick mama cat that she realizes she has more in common with the kittens than she thought. 
This simple but touching fable about being welcoming to others and sharing works equally well for reading aloud as a family or for curling up with in a cozy corner. Mrs. D. knows how to convey the magical spirit of Christmas and its message of love and friendship. The illustrations, created by MikeMotz.com, are dramatic and vivid.

Author Olga D'Agostino, known as Mrs. D., grew up on a farm by the Carpathian Mountains in western Ukraine, surrounded by nature. Her childhood featured an imaginary world she filled with characters from books she read. She and her two small daughters immigrated to the United States in 1992. D'Agostino, who speaks many languages, has also written other illustrated children's books: "Carlo The Mouse on Vacation," "The Trees Have Hearts," Good Morning, World, "and" Carlo The Mouse, Book 1: Too Many Rules for One Little Mouse." "The Trees Have Hearts" was awarded a 2013 Mom's Choice Award. She is already working on several other books for children, including more adventures starring Carlo The Mouse, and "Runaway Clothes," "The Mysterious Life Inside a Closet," "Everyone Needs Someone: The Royal Palm," "Who Is Most Important in The Fridge "and" That Is How Things Are.

Thomas loves Everything he sees, but his grandfather Finds fault with everything in this charming new illustrated children's book.

Galloway, NJ (PRWEB) October 28, 2013

Few things are better on a beautiful sunlit day than a walk in the park. When young Thomas and his grandfather go out for a walk, they see the same things but from different perspectives. Thomas loves everything he sees, but his grandfather finds fault with everything in this charming new illustrated children's book.

"Good Morning, World! " explores the wonders of nature and its colorful characters like the golden sun, pretty flowers, and birds squabbling. Thomas is delighted when ladybugs spiral up into the air, but his grandfather is worried about being bitten. Thomas loves seeing the jumping frogs and lizards sweet, but his grandfather thinks the park is dangerous. By the end of their walk, Thomas is delighted with all the happy things he saw while his grandfather is delighted to be able to finally take a nap. Dynamic drawings by Eladziem provide a powerful counterpoint to the whimsical story.

Author Olga D'Agostino, aka Mrs. D, immigrated to the United States from western Ukraine in 1992 with her two small daughters. D'Agostino, who speaks many languages, has written other illustrated children's books, Including "Carlo The Mouse, Book 1: Too Many Rules for One Little Mouse," "Carlo The Mouse on Vacation," "The Trees Have Hearts," and "The City and the Old Kittens Cat House." "The Trees Have Hearts" earned a 2013 Mom's Choice Award. She is working on several new children's books, including more adventures starring Carlo The Mouse, and "Runaway Clothes," "The Mysterious Life Inside a Closet," "Everyone Needs Someone: The Royal Palm," "Who Is Most Important in the Fridge "and" That Is How Things Are. "She lives in Smithville, NJ, with her husband, and has a grandson to whom she has dedicated this book.
