We’re now in holiday mode around the house, and one of my favorite things to do with the kids is read holiday stories. In fact, I have quite a collection of books just for the holidays, we have enough to read one a night starting Dec 1st all the way through to Christmas.

Since we love to read, it’s always fun to check out new books, especially when you get a chance to work with directly the authors or illustrators, so when I was put in touch with Israel Sanchez, I was delighted to receive a copy of the book he illustrated: “The Dinosaur Tooth Fairy”.

Book Review: Luca Lashes, An iPad App and Interactive Story

My kids are highly addicted to the iPad.  Heck, I am too.  I really enjoy my social addiction, while the kids, handsome boy in particular is addicted to any racing game he can get his hands on.  However I do make them use these gadgets for learning as well.  We all really enjoy reading stories together as a family, and love finding new stories, especially interactive ones to download.

I was recently contacted about a book review on Luca Lashes, an interactive book series that is based on a boy with magic eyelashes that give him special brave powers.

We had the opportunity to download two of the books.  The first, “Luca Lashes and his Trip To The Nursing Home”.
