Disney Book Group ~ Book Review of FROZEN ~ READ ALONG Storybook and CD

Disclaimer: We received the following book from the Disney Book Group, free of charge, to do an honest review on.

If you have been anywhere on the planet since late last year you have heard of the movie FROZEN! Yes, FROZEN from Disney. I'm pretty sure I have seen or at least heard it about 150 times since we bought the DVD for the kiddo.

Well to go with the movie, there are books! Actually quite a few books and this is one of the ones that we received to do a review on. 


Disney FROZEN Read-Along Storybook and CD


This book has become an absolute favorite of the kiddos. As you can see from the pictures, the CD is missing (see the little CD window?). Well, it isn't missing. It is in the CD player and has been in there on a daily basis. So much easier leaving it in there on and off then taking the chance of it getting scratched up going in and out of the CD player.



She loves following along as the story is told. It is really the whole movie in a few dozen pages. The shortened version, so to speak. 

Very easy to follow along to, it tells you when you turn the page and the voices on the CD are the ones that are in the movie. So you will hear Elsa and Anna, Hans, Kristoff and of course everyone's favorite snowman OLAF!

The book is rated for ages 3+ but unless they are really a fast learner and reader they would probably have to be a little older to read the book without listening to the CD, but they can easily follow along with it. 


The book is priced out at $6.99 US, so it is very affordable.  

If your kid or kids are Frozen nuts, then you should really consider this book and read-along CD for them, I am sure that they will get as much enjoyment out of it as my kiddo has, so far.

Many thanks to the Disney Book Group for sending us this book.  

Please stay tuned because we have a lot of these types of book reviews coming up. All sorts of Disney books from Frozen, to Mickey, Spider-Man and more!!

Lumenx Mountable Bicycle Light Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.


Do you need a bike light that will shine brightly with different features? 

Then you should probably look no further!!

Here is the Lumenx Mountable Bike Light from LumenxUSA



Product Information:

Never ride blind again! Lumenx mountable bicycle headlight/flashlight is a powerfful 2-in-1 portable LED bike light that will shine up to 500 feet, can effectively light up your path every time and its LED lights are shockproof with a higher light output and life span than other competitive incandescent bulbs. It is easy to install and remove with no tools needed. Guaranteed to be made of the highest quality materials and gives the highest safety and security possible.

Benefits:
   * Bright CREE Q5 bulb   * Up to 500 feet light visibility   * 1x - 2000x zoom and flash mode   * Portable and easy to install, no tools required   * Durability military grade aluminum   * Waterproof with advanced "O" ring seal   * Convenient safety features



As you can see it also comes with a red taillight as well. You can have this on as a steady light or you can have it flashing. The same way with the front light. On for a steady stream of light, or for some extra safety so that you can be sure that the people driving will see you, you can have it flashing on and off.


Our opinion? 

You'll like this light. Really, you will, trust me. It looks small but it packs a powerful punch. The light claims to shine at least 500 feet, but I'm sure it goes farther. The first night outside with it, we were lighting up a spot on the wall at my fathers house (shined through a window) and he easily is 500+ feet away from us. We were able to light up the deer eyes across the road in the field. 

As for installing it on the bike? Very easy to do. Just loosen up the ring and it pops on and then tighten it up. Can take them on and off with absolutely no problem whatsoever. The tail light is on a rubber ring and then just pops right on as well.

It is super bright! So, a word of caution, DO NOT shine this in your eyes or anyone else's eyes. This can cause permanent damage. 

We will definitely be using this product for a long time. Comes in handy, whether on or off a bike.

My only complaint (and it really isn't a major one): it doesn't come with batteries, so make sure you have 3 TripleA batteries on hand. 

If you are interested in this light, right now it is available on Amazon $25.77 which is a $24+ savings. You can click the link here to see it: Lumenx Bike Light

Also, here is their website LumenxUSA if you are interested in reading up on them. Please, check them out if you get the chance and are in the market for a new bike light.

Many thanks to Lumenx for allowing us to do a review of their bike light.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
