Barefoot Books Review and Giveaway (Your Choice)

Product Information: Barefoot Books is all about exploring, giving back, imagining, creating and connecting! It’s all about exploring other cultures, our planet and ourselves. It’s making time for make-believe and letting imaginations run wild and free. Most of all, it’s about using the power of stories to nourish the creative spark in everyone and strengthen connections with family, the global community, and the earth.
Barefoot Books began with two mothers who wanted their children to have books that would feed the imagination, while instilling a respect for diversity and a love of the planet. Today they are a world wide community of writers, artists, storytellers, musicians, and others who are committed to prividing timeless stories and captivating art that can help children become happy, engaged members of a global society. 
For my review, we received the following books:
Playtime Rhymes for Little People - Act out each of the imaginative selections in this hand-sewn anthology. The forty rhymes and games encourage active play and participation with step-by-step instructions to follow. Book with CD edition includes songs and rhymes performed by Susan Reed.
Playtime Rhymes for Little People is a hardcover book that has 40 rhymes and includes a singalong CD.
Each rhyme also has directions on how to do your hands for each one so you can really make a game of it also! My grandkids really love it and enjoy singing along with the CD. They love being able to do the hand gestures while singing it also. This book is more than just a book a rhymes!
Grandmothers' StoriesThe stories in this anthology illustrate many of the qualities of the wise woman, offering readers of all ages a new perspective on the grandmother character that is usually presented in fairy tales as either menacingly evil or dim-witted and useless. With spirited grandmothers from as far afield as Senegal and Sweden, all of these tales are rich with humor, action and suspense. A fresh and witty retelling is complemented by finely detailed and mesmerizing illustrations. This book has 8 stories from the following cultures - Senegalese, Japanese, Russian, Hawaiin, Mexican, Irish, German and Swedish. The book also includes 2 CD's that you can listen to also! The grandkids really love listening to stories and especially from different cultures! 
Kids' Kitchen - 40 Fun and Healthy Recipes to Make and Share
Step into the kitchen for some child-friendly fun with food. The forty recipes in this colorful deck are based around the five main food groups, and offer a healthy and exciting way to learn about cooking. Made just for kids! My grandkids love how big the recipe cards are and how easy it is for them to read them and hold them. They love using the cookie cutters to make those special recipes! 
Thanks to Barefoot Books One (1) of my readers will win their choice of a book from Barefoot Books.
