Review: Guess How Much I Love You

Guess How Much I Love You by Sam McBratney

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



Guess How Much I Love You is a great companion book to The Runaway Bunny. Where The Runaway Bunny is about a bunny and his mother, this one is about a bunny and his dad. I always like to find picture books with a father in them; it seems like the genre is dominated by mothers (think Love You Forever, Are You My Mother, etc.).

Lovely illustrations!

Boynton does it again--brilliant! Have you ever seen a baby hippo in a snowsuit? I could die.

Review: Snoop: What Your Stuff Says About You

Snoop: What Your Stuff Says About You by Sam Gosling

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



This was a fun, fast read. I'm a nosy Parker, so when I saw this in the new acquisitions in the library, I picked it up right away. It wasn't exactly what I expected, but I really enjoyed it. Dr. Gosling has studied the relationship between living space and the occupant's score on the "Big Five" aspects of personality. Some of his findings are pretty common sense; for example, people with high conscientiousness are quite organized. Others are more surprising, like what one's bedroom says about extroversion.
