Books shopping

went to MPH @ PP wif HQ on fri and managed to get so many good books for the kiddos. i luv books from UK and Australia coz i prefer the english and the exercise.

local exercises books need to stress repeititon and i find them boring even when i flipped thru. i tink they're geared towards producing exam smart kids.

but the australian and UK ones haf lotsa different varieties of exercises and come wif sticker stars. definitely worth paying for.

these two 366 books are beli interesting. there's a short story for each day of the yr and a slightly longer bonus story for the beginning of each mth!!
i couldn't resist reading a lot of the stories myself.

HQ chose and highly recommended the pictorial coz it's all abt science and boys luv non fiction. i still rem the first 2 books tat YY chose from the library were abt scorpions and spiders. he luv looking at the pictures and kept asking mi to read wat's in the books.

it's the same wif him going to pokemon.com and looking at the 300++ pokemons one by one. he'll always b asking mi to read the description of each pokemon coz the words are often too hard for him.
