The Greatest Showman #Movie

AVAILABLE NOW!
RATED PG
105 minutes
AMAZON US   |   AMAZON CA   |   AMAZON UK
Orphaned, penniless but ambitious and with a mind crammed with imagination and fresh ideas, the American Phineas Taylor Barnum will always be remembered as the man with the gift to effortlessly blur the line between reality and fiction. Thirsty for innovation and hungry for success, the son of a tailor will manage to open a wax museum but will soon shift focus to the unique and peculiar, introducing extraordinary, never-seen-before live acts on the circus stage. Some will call Barnum's wide collection of oddities, a freak show; however, when the obsessed showman gambles everything on the opera singer Jenny Lind to appeal to a high-brow audience, he will somehow lose sight of the most important aspect of his life: his family. Will Barnum risk it all to be accepted?

REVIEW: I can see why this movie was so highly acclaimed in the media. It was one of the best musicals I have ever seen. It had songs that were supe…

Zombie Kids Go Green by Julia Dweck (26)

Zombie Kids Go Green is about a group of zombie kids that help clean up the environment they are in. The book is written in prose and is quite short. I couldn't find any purchase links, and frankly, it's been on my Kindle so long now that I don't recall how I acquired it. 

It's written in prose and it's lovely.

The author uses clever words to engage the reader, young or old, and teaches them even smelly zombies love the Earth enough to care for it.

The illustrations are awesome too. Great job, Mark Draisey.

I really enjoyed this little book a lot. If you're a zombie fan, check it out.

5/5
