Books

Attention, fellow book enthusiasts, parents, and caregivers of budding bookworms! Is your little one an avid reader or do they simply adore listening to your soothing voice as you read to them?

We are inundated with numerous requests to review children's books, and unfortunately, we can no longer keep up with reviewing all of them ourselves. It pains us to decline authors, as we hold a deep love for books and a strong desire to support the incredible individuals who both educate and entertain our precious little readers.

Recognizing that many of you have young book lovers at home or have experienced this joy in the past, we wanted to gauge your interest in a "Read and Share" program. This program would offer you the opportunity to receive free books in exchange for providing book reviews. Interested? Read on for details.

Friendships are important for all children, regardless of their background or circumstances. Children with Autism are no exception. Unfortunately, many children with Autism are struggling to make friends. So, how can we help children with Autism make friends and how can we be a good friend to an autistic person?

The City of Bee Cave and the Bee Cave Public Library will host their second annual free Books and Bees Festival on April 1st and April 2nd at the Bee Cave Galleria. This year, we are hosting a two-day event including our first ever HoneyFest!

When you were a child, have you ever wondered what Santa's favorite food is? What he likes to do in his free time? What songs he likes to listen to? What books he likes to read? What he wanted to be when he grows up?

If you said yes to any of those questions, then there's a good chance your children are asking themselves the same questions. Have your child's questions answered by the man himself and keep Santa's Magic alive. Find out how.

Our book is on sale! Save $5 on your order now until December 7th.

Plus, read about cute ways to use your My Friends and I book this Holiday season!

Are you new to the area? Is your child starting school? Is your child struggling to make friends?

It is hard for parents to watch their child having trouble making friends in the classroom, on the playground, in the neighborhood, or any other place children their age mix and mingle.

Parents feel their children’s feelings and want them to be happy. However, trying to solve their children’s problems for them is ultimately not a solution. Instead, parents may guide their children in the right direction and get involved by talking with their child's teacher, read books about friendship, model behavior, try role play, or give them tools that may help them find their way and build relationships and friendships on their own.

Here is a one tool that will help your child break the ice at and outside of school.

Is your child anxious about going back to school after a long summer break or nervous about starting school for the first time? The following books will help your kids ease the transition (back) to school, calm the jitters, and get them excited about school. Read on for details.
