It is only fitting that the very first Kidazy book recommendation be my personal childhood favorite. "Gorilla" is a book that is not often spoken of, other than by children who have read it or by adults who treasured it as children. Anthony Browne brings this story to life with amazing colored illustrations that titillate every child’s senses. "Gorilla" is a story of a little girl named Hannah who’s dad isn’t around as much as she would like. In the process of the story of "Gorilla" Hannah’s birthday approaches and her dad promises her a trip to the zoo but, as he always does, Hannah’s dad backs out of the trip because he is too busy with work. Disappointed

Hannah goes to bed the night before her birthday and wakes up in the middle of the night to find a package at the end of her bed. Inside the package Hannah finds a toy gorilla, upset, she throws it to the corner of the room where it begins to grow and grow and grow until it comes to life and takes her to the zoo for her birthday to make up for her father’s absence. This is such a perfect story for the child of any busy parent as well as any child who loves to make believe.
"Gorilla" is a pretty difficult to find book now a days; however, Amazon does carry one regularly priced version of the paperback book with an included story CD (read by a British actor who is just amazing with voices.) This book comes more than highly recommended and if your child enjoys it keep an eye out for the other Anthony Browne books, most of which focus on monkeys.

It is easy to forget the reason of the season for younger children who get so excited about presents and Santa that they sometimes forget all about the real meaning of Christmas! God Gave Us Christmas by Lisa Bergren is a great kid friendly way to remind your little ones all about the reason we celebrate Christmas! Not only is this amazingly illustrated book great for your kiddos but you are sure to get sucked in to the story yourself.

If your house is like mine you read a good four or five magazines a month and just never think to invest in a subscription because somehow it seems like more money but Mag Hound is looking to change that! Get all the magazines that you and your kids love for one low monthly fee and change up your mags as often as you want!

One of my fondest memories as a child is learning to cook, both in school and in the kitchen with my older sister. There is nothing like learning to cook to make your younger family members feel like an important part of the kitchen as well as to bring the whole family together for a fun activity that will result in tasty treats as well! I highly recommend the Paula Deen’s My First Cookbook not only because Paula Deen is one of my all time favorite television personalities but also because this book has some amazingly tasty recipes that your kids are going to have an absolute ball with! This great book includes recipes for things like ants on a log,

Haystacks and stuffed shells! All of the recipes in this book are extremely kid and parent friendly and the book also contains great tips for cooking mom and dad breakfast in bed on those special occasions! This book is recommended for children of all ages with parental guidance in the kitchen!
You can find Paula Deen’s My First Cookbook over at Amazon.com. You can also find this one at your local bookstore and remember, if they don’t have it in stock you can order it for delivery to the store at no extra charge!
