My Thoughts on The Creeper:

This is such a cute kids book.  You are going to love it.  I have to admit I’m one of those weird parents who has never liked Dr Seuss.  It seems like a lot of nonsense to me.  I want real words and real-life in my books for my kids.  While this isn’t a “real” book it’s not quite the twaddle of one fish two fish.  This book I can say is cute and would stay on my shelf. 

The illustrations are cute.  My kids are repeating the rhymes.  I’m not sick of the book yet.  That has to count for something!  There are so many books that were cute the first 1000 times I read them that I can quote from memory that I now wish did not have space in my brain.  So far this book has not reached that status.  I’m not sure if that’s good or bad!

We received an ecopy of the book and I downloaded it onto my kids reading device.  We got them a Kindle Fire for the younger ones to use with their Reading Eggs program and it’s perfect for kids ebooks!  This also made it easy for my older children to read it to the younger ones as well which is always fun for me so I’m not the only one reading.

This book is a good one for younger readers for helping them work on their reading skills.  It’s also good for helping to teach rhyming and what words rhyme with each other and how it’s from the endings not from the beginnings of words. 

I have voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from Celebrate Lit. All views expressed are only my honest opinion. I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way. All opinions expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the FTC regulations.

About the Author of The Creeper

 

The Creeper

 

Children’s author Teresa Posey Carey took her inspiration from Dr. Seuss’ rhyming stories. A born again Christian, she hopes to honour God in all she does, including her favourite things: spending time with family and friends and writing. Also an animal advocate, she loves her fur babies—-Sugar and Missy (dogs), Dinky and Skittles (cats)—-and dotes shamelessly on them. Teresa also has several new children’s books with bug characters and hopes everyone will visit her new Bug Huggers Facebook page! Teresa lives in De Kalb, Texas, the hometown of Dan Blocker, a.k.a. Hoss Cartwright, in the far northeast corner of the Lone Star State.

More from Teresa

My new children’s rhyming book The Creeper is filled with mystery and fun. Treasures with clues are strewn along its pages to keep children guessing up until the very end, making it a very exciting and interactive book that kids will want to hear again and again. I wrote The Creeper because of my love for rhyming verse stories and God’s word, pairing the two,

The Creeper becomes a great tool for teaching children about God’s love for them as well as instilling Christian values and it introduces them to essential skills known to be learned from rhyming words together and what kid doesn’t love rhyme?

The Creeper is based upon the Biblical principle of Matthew 7:7-8 If ye seek ye shall surely find what ye are looking for, this is what the foundation for The Creeper is all about!

I first knew that I really loved and wanted to write verse stories after taking my daughter to the local library when she was a little girl, that’s when and where we discovered Dr Suess, One fish two fish red fish blue fish, we were both hooked and enjoyed reading all the rest of his wonderful rhyming stories, along with all the Mother goose poems and anything else we could get our hands on!

I believe that God gave this gift in my life to use for glorifying him while entertaining children. What better way to do things than to use your God-given gifts and talents and give back unto The Lord!

    We never had any Dr. Seuss books in our house until my adult daughter recently started getting them from the library. The younger children love them–they would probably like The Creeper, too.

    1. Erin S.

      We had them for a bit because the homeschool curriculum I was using had them listed as part of a lesson. But after reading I was like nope not in my house anymore.
