How much do you love reading? If you are like our family, you love reading almost more than breathing some days. Books are fuel for the brain and I only recently realized how very many books this family owns when we started packing to get ready for our move. But there’s always room for more.
Right now, if you head over to DK Canada web site you can vote on which books are your favourites and potentially win a $250 batch of DK Canada books. That should keep you busy through the long, cold winter and then some. 
Every February, DK Canada creates a boutique of their most popular books as selected by
readers. Throughout January ask invite DK lovers to submit their choices for
their favourite DK book of all-time, and we pick 20 of the top books and
offer them up at 30% off. 

Each person who votes is entered into a draw for a $250 DK shopping spree
where they can choose whatever books they like from the website.

Voting is open until January 30th. I can’t wait to see what books you pick. In fact leave a comment here to tell me which of their books is your fave. Just because.

Tales From the Treehouse: The Ultimate Horse Treasury

13Jul | 2013

posted by Paula

My daughters are both horse girls. They have grown up riding in the summers at Sari Therapeutic Riding camp. My youngest girl Ainsley, with special needs, has been riding weekly at Sari from the time she was six years old. They love everything about riding and horses and horse trivia. Lucky for me, they both also love reading. So, when this book the Ultimate Horse Treasury arrived for review from DK Canada, I knew we would have a chance to all sit down together and read. I didn’t know the book would be this lovely, with so many magnificent pictures, and so much amazing trivia. As I stated in this vlog review, everyone can learn something about horses just by picking up this book.

DKCanada makes educational books that enhance your child’s education or leisure time. This summer they are encouraging children to read with their Summer Reading Adventure program. Buy 2 DK Canada readers and get the third one free. Stay tuned for our DK Canada readers reviews coming up featuring my other daughter, who reads at a younger level than Payton. She is tackling several awesome readers and staying current, while avoiding summer slide by practicing her reading with DK Canada.

The Ultimate Horse Treasury is by John Woodward, DK Canada, $19.99 US, $21.99 Canada. 160 pages.

This one gets a $$$$$ out of $$$$$ again. The DK Canada books are stunning quality and very educational.

We received a copy of the book for review purposes. This in no way impact our honest opinion.
