My review:
Kitty Counts Her Blessings is the second children's book I have read by Kat E. Erikson. This story is written for children between the ages of 4-7, but I think younger children would also enjoy this short story.

My Review:
Henry the Goose Who Got to Love is written for children between the ages of 6-10, however, I think it would be better suited for children a bit older.

The cover of We Are Heroes is what drew my attention to this work. I cannot recall another book off the top of my head with a father and his son represented on the front cover.
