Great Books For Little People

This season, you'll be wanting to get your favorite children, some great books. They make great gifts and their parents will love you for not wasting your money on silly toys. What's new at the bookstore? "The English Roses: Too Good To Be True" from Madonna. Madonna tells 'Child' Magazine that her husband and daughter give her an endless source of material for her childrens' book series. She recently appeared on Home Shopping to sell her books and although she didn't appear to personally pitch the books, she did give a very nice interview to one of the show hosts. You can also find a great book by Gloria Estefan called 'Noelle's Treasure Tale'. She's written books in this series before about an english bulldog in pursuit of treasure along Florida's coastline. Her books are available in both English and Spanish. Billy Crystal has written a new children's book called 'Grandpa's Little One'. He describes the book as a book of firsts in celebration of his granddaughter's first birthday....first piece of cake, first time in the swimming pool, first Scientology meeting...stuff like that! Finally, you can read Queen Latifah's 'Queen of the Scene' about a spnky city girl who can beat the boys at basketball, loosely based on her own childhood.
