Book Review:

HALL WAYS REVIEW: Gingersnap Snatcher is a delightful story that will keep readers young and old amused and engaged. It's well-written and the story is told through well-balanced, lyrical rhyming, so it's ideal for a classroom, library, or home read-aloud. The vibrant and expressive illustrations by Svitlana Liuta perfectly complement author Vicky Weber's text for a fun-filled and funny reading experience. I smiled from cover to cover and can't wait to share this story with my granddaughter. 

The story and illustrations were wonderful all by themselves, but for those who are musically inclined, Weber goes next level and also includes the music and words to "The Gingersnap Snatcher" song and points readers back to "vocal exploration opportunities hidden in the book." Full disclosure: I am not musically inclined, cannot read music, and had ZERO understanding of those vocal exploration opportunities. I would have loved a link to hear the song so I could sing it and needed some guidance about finding the hidden things in the book. 

As an added attraction, the author shares a QR code for readers to get a free download of the gingersnap recipe or take it up a notch and order the BaKit Box that comes with a copy of the book and a cookie baking kit. (Must order by 12/14/21.)

With the story set during the holidays, this book would make a great Christmas present and basis for a family activity and quality time tradition to be enjoyed for years to come. I will definitely be exploring this author's other books.

If a Butterfly series ~ Lone Star Book Blog Tours BONUS Promo & Giveaway!

IF A BUTTERFLY SERIES:

BOOK 1 - CHRYSALIS

BOOK 2 - EMERGENCE

by

MICHAEL SIROIS

Genre: Mainstream / Literary Fiction

Publisher: Flio Widdix Publishing

Date of Publication: December 11, 2021

Nine Characters + One Butterfly = Chaos Theory. 

The series, If a Butterfly, is a bit like Six Degrees of Separation from Kevin Bacon (if Kevin just happened to be a butterfly). A Monarch butterfly, during its epic migration from Canada to Mexico, intersects the paths of a few people, and their lives and the lives of others are altered forever. 

In Chrysalis, the first book in the series, nine different characters embark on a variety of journeys, some of distance, and others while staying right where they are. What do a scientist, a married couple on a vacation, a woman who hears voices no one else hears, a grad student, a quilter, a radio deejay, a teacher, and an astronaut all have in common? A butterfly, of course. All of these characters want what most people want, “to earn a decent living, be respected for the work we do, have a good time, and get along with everybody.” Sometimes that happens, sometimes it doesn’t.

In the second book, Emergence, the journeys continue, with a different focus for some of the characters because of what happened in Chrysalis; but the continuation of their stories show how each of our lives can touch another life, and what effect a chance encounter can have on everyone around us.
