Is Your Mama A Llama? Book Review

Is Your Mama Llama is a perfect book for Moms to bond with their young children. This book is my favorite to read to my son. He loves the pictures and I point out all the animals with their mamas to him. He sits quietly as I read it, for him that's a big deal as he is a wiggle worm! The rhyming to the book is wonderful and it flows very well as each character leads to the next. Its a wonderful book and any mom should read this to her child. The way the animals are described and the colorful pictures bring delight to my heart to read out loud. He asks each of his friends who are different animals if their mamas are a llama and they tell him why they are not. From a seal, a bat, to a kangaroo and more, they all describe their mamas. In the end he finds his mama and they snuggle together to end the night. This would make a great baby shower gift.

I bought my book from an amazon gift card I won in a blog contest. You can buy the book Is Your Mama a Llama? (Limited Edition) from Amazon. 

* This is my own opinion I was not compensated in anyway for this review.

Chegg Rent Your College Books Save Lots of $$$

Last semester I used Chegg to rent my college books instead of buying them. I saved over $75 on just one book! Previously I had to buy them and then sell them back to the book store at the end of the semester but I lost a lot of money in the process. Text books seem to have a the new edition each year and professors want the newest material available. This tends to make the book you buy for one semester worthless in the eyes of the Buy Back stores. I am so excited to have found Chegg. I will use them again this semester for all my books. Plus they plant a tree in your honor for your book rental. I had my planted in the Tahoe National Forest. Currently they are having a Sweepstakes running for every book rental you have the chance to win instant prizes such as Apple Macbook, Nikon CoolPix Camera, XBOX 360 Console, Samsung TV and many more! The grand prizes are MtvU Spring Break Trip, Grammy Experience or $5,000 for college! Rent your books now to see if you win! You can click here to gain access to this money saving site!
