Welcome to House full of Bookworms!
Whether your child is already an avid reader or you are searching for that special book to spark his/her lifelong love of reading, you’re in the right place. I post new book reviews every month on everything from board books to middle-grade novels.
But I’m also an author myself! My new book, Noah Green Junior Zookeeper and the Garage Sale Pet is available for pre-order.
Noah Green Junior Zookeeper and the Garage Sale Pet
by Carolyn Leiloglou
Noah is an animal-loving girl who’s never had a pet until she discovers the perfect one at a garage sale. But when
he won’t stop growing or making mischief, Noah is left with both a mystery and a dilemma.
Available for preorder on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Clear Fork Publishing, or your local independent bookstore.
