As Long as I'm Living...
Review of Love you Forever - Robert Munsch by
mattygroves
Advantages: Beautiful touching story of a mother's love for her son
Disadvantages: Some people apparently find such fictional displays of affection disturbing
...knowing that you could never love another creature more than you love this tiny, helpless infant at this moment? Do you remember thinking "I'll love you forever?"
Thing is, that tiny, mewling baby grows up, into a bigger, messy, complaining, cheeky toddler, child and teenager. And yet...you go into the bedroom to give that sticky, sleeping face a kiss, and those feelings you had in those first few hours and days come rushing back, and you know you ... ...born, the mother sings "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be". As he grows up into a screaming two year old, a boisterous nine year old, a fractious loud teenager, and an independent adult, she creeps into his room, when she is sure he is asleep and sings "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be." Eventually, mum grows old, and now it's down to ...

And You Thought That You're Unfortunate!
Review of Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events - Lemony Snicket by
pureblue
Advantages: Keeps both adults and kids absorbed
Disadvantages: None
The first chapter of this book begins with these lines:
'If you are interested in stories with happy endings, you would be better off reading some other book. In this book, not only is there no happy ending, there is no happy beginning and very few happy things in the middle.'
Being human and totally sadistic, I had to continue reading after those first few lines ( now, before you begin to label me, remember that everyone of us are a little nosy ... ...how do you explain myriad of people buying magazines that scream out headlines like "Boob Jobs Gone Wrong" or "End of a FairyTale- X Leaves Y" :-) ?) The remarkable thing about this unfortunate book is that it is written for children. No 'And the lived happily ever after'. No 'good triumphs over evil'. Nothing. ******************************************
THE STORY -
This book tells the tragic tale of three unlucky children - Violet, Klaus and Sunny ...

***The Story***
The story starts with a big bear and a little bear walking in the woods until eventually it is time to go back home.
"PLOD PLOD PLOD went Big Bear, plodding along.
Little Bear ran on in front,
jumping and ... ...Bear stopped
and he listened
and then he turned round and he looked."
The reason Little Bear stops is because he has heard a plod plod plod noise and is convinced a Plodder is near but Big Bear explains that it is his feet making the noise in the snow.
They carry on but once again Little Bear hears a noise and this time things the dripping sound must be a Dripper following them. Again the Big Bear explains that it is the ice dripping into the ...
