New Tween Girls Book Series Called Glimmer Girls

March 21, 2016 By Thaleia 8 Comments

My daughter is a typical 11 1/2 year old girl who just so happens to love a great book. When she found out that we had the chance to review the first two books in the Glimmer Girls series she was very excited. I am sure that she will be telling all her friends in our various homeschool groups all about these books. I can see this series making it’s way into my nieces birthday present bags in the near future.

New Tween Girls Book Series

If you are looking for an engaging wholesome read then give Glimmer Girls by Natalie Grant a chance.

In London Art Chase, the first title in the new Faithgirlz Glimmer Girls series, readers meet 10-year-old twins Mia and Maddie and their adorable little sister, LuLu. All the girls are smart, sassy, and unique in their own way, each with a special little something that adds to great family adventures.

There is pure excitement in the family as the group heads to London for the first time to watch mom, famous singer Gloria Glimmer, perform. But on a day trip to the National Gallery, Maddie witnesses what she believes to be an art theft and takes her sisters and their beloved and wacky nanny Miss Julia, on a wild and crazy adventure as they follow the supposed thief to his lair. Will the Glimmer Girls save the day? And will Maddie find what makes her shine?

Join twins Mia and Maddie and their sidekick little sister, LuLu, as they travel the country finding adventure, mystery, and sometimes mischief along the way. Together with their famous mother, singer Gloria Glimmer, and their slightly wacky nanny Miss Twist, the sisters learn lessons about being good friends, telling the truth, and a whole lot more.

In A Dolphin Wish a three-night stop in the city of San Diego seems like it might be just the break the girls need—lovely weather and great sights to see. That is until they hear animal handlers at “Watery World” talking about the trouble they’ve been having keeping the animals in their habitats. Mia and her sisters cannot resist a challenge and they talk Miss Twist into another visit to the educational amusement park to search for clues as to what or who is helping the animals escape.

Spring Flower Nature Scavenger Hunt

March 17, 2016 By Thaleia 5 Comments

Signs of Spring are starting to pop up all over the place! Just a week ago I caught some Mourning Doves building a nest in our large Maple Tree. The only other signs of Spring in our yard are Winter Crocus that have been popping up. I decided we should take a walk around the block on a Spring Flower nature scavenger hunt.

Spring Flower Nature Scavenger Hunt

We grabbed our magnifying glasses, batman costume, jackets, rain boots, the puppy and off we headed. I was actually surprised at the lack of Spring flowers around our neighborhood. I know it’s not technically Spring for a few more days but I was hoping to see some buds on bushes or a few flowers blooming.
