Book Reviews of Tino Turtle Travels to London, England (Mom's Choice Awards Recipient)
Book Review: Loved it!! What a fun way to learn about London's highlights...
Summary: 5 Stars
A friend gave me Tino Turtle Travels to London and told me that I had to read this and to be sure to also listen to the CD...
She was right...I had to read and listen to this...
This book is adorable, cute, funny, yet very informative...I felt like I was getting a history lesson without going to school. Best yet, my friend told me that her kids loved it so much, they keep asking when they can go to London as they want to see what Tino got to see.
Not only that, but this book comes with a CD where Tino sings a song and since the book has the sheet music in it, you and your kids can easily sing along...which is fun...In addition, there is a reading of the story on the CD with sound effects and all. A 'ding' sound will tell you to turn the page, which allows your kids to read along, and it will improve their reading skills as well.
The CD is fun, whether you just listen to it, or read along...I mean, it has the sound of Big Ben on there...how cool is that? I have never been to England and therefore not been to London...I have to admit that I did not know too many details about the monuments there...Yet, after reading Tino's adventure...I not only felt as if I just went there, but being an adult, I still learned a great deal about London's history, and it makes me want to go there, like now...(and I never had any interest to go there, but now I do)...
I can't wait for the Paris version...which will come out soon, I heard...I bet that it will be just as fun...and maybe we'll get to learn some French words as well...
I can highly recommend this book to kids and adults...It educates the reader in such cute and fun way, it makes you want to travel along.
Sleep well, Tino...Until next time you travel...I'll be there! I wouldn't want to miss it.
Thanks for a wonderful book and cd...I am looking forward to the next book of the Tino Turtle seriea...and next and next and next...
