Reviews
"I've been playing Minecraft for 4 years now. When I first started playing I didn't have access to the internet so I learned everything on my own. I'm so happy I found these handbooks!! The Redstone handbook has taught me a general idea of how it works, but I'm still confused with the concept of "endless possibilities". I've learned many new things from each Handbook. (If you're old enough to play the game, you're old enough to read the books) They are made very clearly with photos of all explanations. In fact, if you put so much time into Minecraft that you ARE expert, then you'll want to have these books just as a fan."
"A great book for my seven year old to learn many tricks and shortcuts with the game. He learned how to make basic weapons and what the armor protected the player from."
"Make sure you get the updated editions, so you can have the most 'to date' version of the books - although, in another 6 months, we'll probably need an updated version of the updated version."
"There is no way for me to save the sticker except by carefully using a sharp scissor and cutting around it, so I todssed the sticekr with the discarded shrinkwrap. I also bought the "Minecraft: Redstone Handbook (Updated Edition)" Minecraft: Redstone Handbook (Updated Edition): An Official Mojang Bookat the same time in one Order Invoice."
"My son loves this collection."
"Lovely books, this was bought for my son whose is 9 yo and he keeps reading them and looking thing up all the time."

Reviews
"He loves this handbook because it shows all the Pokemons from the Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, and Kalos regions."
"There are over 700 Pokemon to learn about in this one book!"
"My son loves Pokémon and we had this book in a soft-cover from B & N. It fell apart in a week."
"They had fun "hunting" through the book to look for certain Pokemon -- it is a great companion book to those playing Pokemon Go!"
"The information it provides about each pokemon is concise, easy for any age to understand and makes learning about them fun. The only complaint my daughter did have is that it doesn't include the Alolan region (hopefully I spelled that correct)...but the book was made before that was created I believe."
"Even though this book is not about real animals, I like it a lot!"
"Essential for the pokemon lover, especially if they are new readers."
"The breakdown of each character and their corresponding strengths and weaknesses encourages him to continue reading and giving us perfect stopping stops for bedtime."

Diary of a Minecraft Zombie Book 1: A Scare of A Dare (Volume 1)
Diary of a Minecraft Zombie is a must-read for any kid who loves Minecraft.
Reviews
"The ten year old read this book. His review is, "It was good but short." Here is the question and answer session that followed in order to elicit more information: What's it about? A zombie who has troubles at schools and goes on a couple of adventures. Is there any bad language or violence in it?"
"Obviously the premise of the story is based on the Wimpy Kid series, so you're basically getting a point-of-view story in diary form. There are little black and white pictures scattered throughout, so it breaks up the story and makes it more entertaining for the reader. I also have to add that we were given a free copy of the book from the author in exchange for a fair review, but I went ahead and purchased another copy for myself as well as book 4 in the series for my son - we loved it that much!"
"We read the whole book in a day."
"My second grade nephew was pleased as punch to receive this book for Christmas."
"My 8-year old grandson loved Diary of a Minecraft Zombie Book 1."
"Great book for 3rd graders like me."
"Our youngest fights us with reading."
"My son loves this book, I wish I bought all the others at the same time."

"The different sized pages in the middle of the book (after the caterpillar pops out of his egg on Sunday morning) showing different foods with holes punched in the centers to indicate where he's nibbled through them are darling - each page is thick enough that I think I'm going to cut a caterpillar-sized piece of green pipecleaner to give him so he can watch his very own caterpillar making its way through the one red apple he eats on Monday, two green pears on Tuesday, three purple plums on Wednesday, four red strawberries on Thursday, five bright orange oranges on Friday, and then the variety of multi-colored foods (probably not a caterpillar's scientifically accurate diet, but fun!)."
"The book itself is cute and perfect to read for babies and toddlers (repetition teaching days of the week, numbers 1-7, fruits and other foods, and life cycle). It is a solid, sturdy, proper board book with smooth finished edges that I feel comfortable having a baby touch (or even if they suck on it before you notice and pull it out of their mouth). The plush toy is also very well constructed with no loose seems and withstands gentle tugging on the ears, legs, and colored fringy hairs (of course you always need be careful with babies and choking on anything and not let them suck on this more than a moment or unsupervised)."
"The size of the board book edition is perfect for little hands and the durable, glossy texture makes it easy to clean crayon or marker smudges off the pages."
"My 8 month almost 9 month old daughter just loves it especially the pages with the food on it and loves it when her sisters or I read it to her out loud, definitely a must have for a little ones first book 📖 collection."
"I've just got him the bath book version, for his love for the caterpillar :))."
"Delightful story, beautiful art, clever little "bite" holes in the pages, and even a gentle lesson about caterpillars and butterflies."
"This is my 2 year olds favorite book."
"Clever story, well-written, too."
