Boyd Books

These comics are enjoyed by our entire family. Our 10 year old son can't seem to put them down as the illustrations and content are clever and entertaining. We love how Bently Boyd brings history to life in a fun, creative and easy reading style. After my son is finished reading he can't wait to share what he read with the entire family. We have acquired the entire set of Chester Comix with Content Series and love them all. These make a GREAT gift for anyone of any age or even for teachers as they are an awesome learning tool. A gift that keeps giving. This is a definate must have for the entire family. ENJOY!

Bill Boyd details the "greatest generation's" coming of age through the story of one man's trials and tribulations in the name of love and glory. We follow the journey of Bill Talbot who struggles to reconcile the demands of family obligation with his own need for personal fulfillment. His transformative experiences in the cauldron of WWII have great personal meaning and a more profound impact when considered as a metaphor for the struggle and growth of a generation. His journey of love and glory will appeal to both the historically and romantically inclined and effortlessly intertwines both of these themes in a manner which will appeal to readers of all backgrounds.

...Our two and a half year-old daughter remained captivated by this book for weeks. Reading this book over and over again is not monotonous like some children's books since you can sing it, read it, or tell the story by the pictures. The colorful, detailed illustrations kept her interest in the wedding ceremony, which she is learning is a special, yet common, tradition. It was also fun to hear her sing the story in her own version. This book is a wonderful change from the ordinary and will give your child an opportunity to appreciate music, rhyme, drama, and visual art, all with the charm of a seventeenth century Scottish courtship and marriage.

From Here to There is a picture book about how a road is built, a topic preschoolers love. The author is a teacher with experience reading to young children, and her expertise
shows up in her book. From Here to There works very well as a read-aloud.
It has lots of sound words (bump, bump bump) and a good sense of rhythm.
Not too much text on each page, just enough to keep the action going. It's
a natural for preschool storytime or one-on-one story sharing.
