30 Beautifully Drawn Horse Designs – printed on one side of page
The Horse Lover’s Coloring Book
By: Amanda Neel
Rating: 5 of 5
I was looking for coloring books for my Christmas gifts this year and ran across this lovely book of designs for the horse lover. This book reminded me of my older sister who was always horse crazy as a child (and who has recently begun to color as well.) The beautifully drawn designs in the book brought those memories back and are lovely and fun to color besides. I think the title is apt – it is a great book for any who loves the beauty and majesty of horses.
The designs show horses. Sometimes one, sometimes more than one. Some of the designs also include people. I found that there was a nice mix of both horizontal and vertical designs as well. The designs are detailed with backgrounds but not to the point of being intricate or hard to color.

A funny Christmas tine tale about a couple who have a Freaky Friday transformation
The Mince Pie Mix-Up
By: Jennifer Joyce
Rating: 5 of 5
This is the second book I have read by Jennifer Joyce. She has a wonderful imagination for situations and a real knack for dialog. I enjoy reading her books and the characters are life-like even when they are put in impossible situations (such as in this book.) It’s best to put aside reality and just enjoy the flow of the story.
Joyce and Calvin Neil are a couple with two children. Like most couples, they have begun to take one another’s efforts for granted. Each of them are so involved in their own daily grind and situations, that they don’t see what the other has to contend with.
Things come to a head just as the book starts. When Calvin doesn’t take Judy’s mince pies out of the oven in time (and they burn slightly), it is the start of a story which involves a Freaky Friday element.
