Scampi the Scallop Review & Giveaway



I was very pleased to review a new children's book called Scampi the Scallop by Mi-sA-lĂȘ Fransen.


Scampi the Scallop is a story about surviving. It is a great book for children to learn that you can survive when things get tough. It teaches children to recognize danger and when to stand up and fight for survival.


Haley and Amberly really loved the pictures throughout the book. It was very vivid and kept their attention. I highly recommend this book to parents!


I even had the pleasure to interview the author of Scampi the Scallop.


What inspired you to write this children's book?
I experienced this event at a time when I was already a granny.  It was the first time for me to see a scallop.  Also the first encounter that sea stars / starfish can be soooo big with so many arms.  I thoroughly enjoyed the sincere relieve and joy of the scallop when he safely could swam away with leaps and bounds.  I wanted to share this great experience SCAMPI THE SCALLOP with my granddaughter in Texas.
What inspired you to become a writer?
In my 'previous life' I lived in a desert country in Africa.  Now I roam the oceans with my Dutch husband in our sailboat MYLADY. Writing became my survival therapy to work through my fear and share my joy.
How would you describe this book?
SCAMPI THE SCALLOP is a survival story of a scallop when he was in a life threatening situation.  What would he do to escape?  The unasked question is does the child know what to do in a difficult situation?  In fact, what do we as grown-ups do when we are confronted with trouble, whether physical or emotional?
Where can my readers buy Scampi the Scallop?
The 20-page book has 10 gripping illustrations and are in most of the mojor bookstores.  Scampi the scallop can be bought at Tate Publishing.

One lucky winner is going to win their very own copy of Scampi the Scallop.

The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Amazing Sex vs. Sex For Dummies *Adult Post*

My Challenge: Compare The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex & Sex For Dummies. (I did get to chose which titles I wanted to compare for the challenge. These two compelled to me the most. Haha! Don't judge! :p)

The Complete Idiot's Guide To Amazing Sex


Pictures: was not black and white & was actual people!


8-page full color photographic insert of Sar's eight original sexual positions. I love that I could actually see how a man and woman are suppose to position themselves to have amazing sex! A lot better than some "drawings".


Chapters:


Current Sexual Trends and Attitudes


Sex within Marriage and long-term relationships


Body Image, Obesity and Plastic Surgery and Their Effect on Sexuality


Exciting Techniques for Reaching Multiple Orgasms for Men and Women


Tips on Specific Sexual Activities, Including Playful Ideas on Locations and Toys


The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex has fresh advice and ideas on how readers can improve their sex life and have that amazing sex.


My thoughts: I really like The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex. The cover of the book made me feel like I could actually relate to this book. It had two people on the cover. Sometimes it can be embarrassing to even thing about reading a book about sex, let alone Amazing Sex! The Complete Idiot's Guide really reaches out to their readers. It is written in a manner that everybody can understand. LOL, like we really are "idiots". Written in idiot tone. ^.^


I actually learned quite a bit of tips on improving my sex life! I am sure everybody from time to time could use some tips to spice up their sex life. After being married for so long, sex tends to lose its luster. Being a mother, I am not as um..."spunky" as I use to be. These tips and "positions" I learned will help me get back into the groove!


Sex For Dummies


Pictures: "Drawings"


I was very bored with the pictures in Sex for Dummies. It just may be me, but I don't learn or get aspired by drawings...when it comes to this subject!


Chapters:


Discover how to
* Enjoy the first time
* Enhance foreplay and afterplay with your partner
* Avoid STDs and have safer sex
* Discuss sex with your kids
* Navigate cybersex
I was really thrown off on the "cybersex" section. o.O I am not really into the whole cybersex thing. Reading this section, I was really...well uncomfortable.


The style of writing was very informative and nonjudgmental, but I could not connect with the style of writing. It was a lot of information thrown together but I could not connect with the book like I did with The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex.


One thing that I wish I got to read a long time was the section on how to enjoy the first time! LOL!  Would have came in handy. ;)


The cover...well it is like any other "For Dummies" books. I like that with "The Complete Idiot's Guide" books the covers are all different. It helps me understand the subject better, whatever it may be.



So, the challenge: Compare The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex & Sex for Dummies...


I completed this. Results?


I like The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Sex a lot better than Sex for Dummies.


If you like a book that will give you honest advice and tips to reach that  amazing sex...then Complete Idiot's Guide to Amazing Guide is the book for you!
