Playing nicely
Photo-A-Day #4233

Occasionally I receive books from Disney Press, Disney Hyperion and Disney Book Group. What follows is some information about each of the books that I received and my honest opinion.

The first book is the Frozen Adventure Guide (aff link) which is for the older child of 8-12 years. It goes for $12.99 and is in hardcover. This is for Frozen Northern Lights. Disney Channel did some Frozen Northern Lights shorts this Summer with LEGO the books are starting to appear now. However, the books are not LEGO based. This notebook looks like it was re-purposed from Oaken, the trader. It was his book of inventions and has since become a book of adventures of Elsa, Anna, and Kristoff on their journey to the Northern Lights.

I also got four books about Disney Palace Pets. These are great for the younger kids. Two of them: Sultan’s Triumphs and Petite’s Great Feats are books with puzzles and a mini Palace Pets toy. Sultan’s Triumphs (aff link) is about Princess Jasmine’s pet, Sultan the tiger. The other book, Petite’s Great Feats (aff link) is about Princess Belle’s pony. The other two books: Ms. Featherbon and the Holiday Helpers: Read Along Storybook and CD (aff link), and Berry’s Halloween Costume Trouble: Read Along Storybook and CD (aff link). Both books are $6.99 and they are already out in stores. The whole Disney Palace Pets thing is cute and great for the younger kids. Eva liked them for a while but has outgrown them. They’ll either make their way to my niece and nephew or to Christmas is for Kids.

The last book is called Queen Dog (aff link). I got an advanced copy of this that was unbound. The newest one that I got is complete and it is hardcover. This is a cute little story that is going to be released on January 3, 2017 for $16.99. I read this a few times to Andrew and he liked it very much. You can see all the books in the video below.

After school I took Andrew out for lunch. We were going to go to Tex Barry’s for some Coney Island Hot Dogs but we couldn’t find a parking spot so instead we went to Bliss Bros. Today was National Frappe day and I certainly wanted a Frappe but I didn’t end up getting one because I had already eaten plenty and Andrew got a bowl of ice cream with his meal that was more than enough to share.

After lunch we went over to the playground across the way. The main intention of that was to get Andrew tired out, he didn’t get tired. He used up his nap yesterday when it would have been better if he hadn’t. He was, however really good about playing quietly in his room so that I could shut my eyes for a while. I did not sleep well and was facing a 12 hour overnight shift after being up at 4am. Such is the glamorous life of being on a weekend overnight shift.

The other thing that I wanted to talk about today were the great books that I’ve been getting from Disney Hyperion to review. I get these books for free and then I talk about them, either on my vlogs or in blog posts. I give a complete breakdown of the great books on the vlog today and below the video are links to each of the books where you can buy them on Amazon.com using my affiliate code.
