About The National Geographic Kids Books~
1) We Love Babies! (ages 2-5, National Geographic Kids Books, Hardcover, $17.99)
Love + adorable baby animals = a MUST for Valentine’s Day and baby shower gift giving. This hilarious picture book with rollicking, rhyming text reads like a crowd-pleasing call, pumping up readers’ excitement for the cutest baby animals ever. Illustrated with lively National Geographic photography, We Love Babies! presents furred, feathered, and finned baby animals of all shapes and sizes, celebrating their glorious diversity, from “paws and claws and little flippers” to “feet that look like fuzzy slippers!”. Whimsical cartoon cheerleaders add to the fun, popping up throughout the book to lead fans in the irresistible refrain: “We love babies, yes we do, we love babies, how about you?”
2) Turn it Up!: A Pitch-Perfect History of Music that Rocked the World (ages 8-12, National Geographic Kids Books, Hardcover, $19.99)
Rock On! The high notes and biggest moments in music history are covered in this big, bright, hardcover- from Bach to the Beatles to Beyonce, and beyond. Many major music genres are playfully explained, from tribal, classical, jazz, folk, opera, rock … all the way to today’s modern forms, such as k-pop, hip-hop, and rap. Instruments and sounds are explored, along with places and events in history that inspired the evolution of music. Kids will also get a sense of music theory, instrumentation, and the artistry of distinctive musical styles. Song recommendations help readers open their ears to what they’ve learned and a rockin’ glossary of musical terms as well as a timeline that plots each genre on its path from ancient history to today make this book one that is bound to top the charts.

My Review/Thoughts~
The National Geographic Kids Books have made such a difference in my household. My older kids have read all 3 books and even read books 2 and 3 to my younger kids. They have been taking care of each other which puts a smile in my heart. I even read my youngest book and I loved everything about it. Everyone in my house loves anything National Geographic. My kids were over the moon to find that there is a Kids National Geographic just for them. They could have not been happier. As a Mom, I could not have been happier to have them fall in love with something that is educational for them.
