By Dwayne Henson&lt;br /&gt;
Smiles bring happiness and positive feelings to all. Smiling is something simple you can do to make the world better. Although I think the message of this book is lovely and positive, I felt like it was a bit corny. It was as if the book was trying too hard.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smart-book-reviews.blogspot.com/feeds/533379116319139895/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://smart-book-reviews.blogspot.com/2010/06/book-review-of-mr-sunny-sunshine.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1541582215396280291/posts/default/533379116319139895'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1541582215396280291/posts/default/533379116319139895'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smart-book-reviews.blogspot.com/2010/06/book-review-of-mr-sunny-sunshine.html' title='Book Review of &quot;Mr. Sunny Sunshine-Nothing but Smiles: A Comic Book&quot; by Isabella Taylor, member LoneStar Mensa'/><author><name>Anonymous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04288239616791955154</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1541582215396280291.post-4539629667017256370</id><published>2010-06-02T20:57:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-02T20:57:55.689-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Book Review of &quot;Mimi Loves to Mimic&quot; by Isabella Taylor, member, Lonestar Mensa</title><content type='html'>&lt;iframe src=&quot;http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=mtub-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=bpl&amp;asins=0978755081&amp;fc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;lt1=_blank&amp;m=amazon&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;bc1=000000&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;f=ifr&quot; style=&quot;align:left;padding-top:5px;width:131px;height:245px;padding-right:10px;&quot;align=&quot;left&quot; scrolling=&quot;no&quot; marginwidth=&quot;0&quot; marginheight=&quot;0&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;Mimi Loves to Mimic is a story about Mimi wanting to imitate everyone around her. This is a cute story where kids are learning about their environment through imitation. Kids will like it and relate to it.

&lt;br /&gt;
Mimi Says No is a delightful story about kids and the power of “No!”. I thought the story and the illustrations were cute. It was very simply written with a strong point. I think very young kids will find this quite humorous. Parents will read it and be able to relate to this book as well!</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smart-book-reviews.blogspot.com/feeds/736130606897196546/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://smart-book-reviews.blogspot.com/2010/06/book-review-of-mimi-says-no-by-isabella.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1541582215396280291/posts/default/736130606897196546'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1541582215396280291/posts/default/736130606897196546'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smart-book-reviews.blogspot.com/2010/06/book-review-of-mimi-says-no-by-isabella.html' title='Book Review of &quot;Mimi Says No&quot; by Isabella Taylor, member, Lonestar Mensa'/><author><name>Anonymous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04288239616791955154</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
