A Kid's Review

This review is from: Elves Don't Wear Hard Hats (The Adventures of the Bailey School Kids, #17) (Paperback)

This book is about kids that wanted a new playground. They had to share the swing. One day the construction worker came to build a new playground. One of the workers came in the room during class and asked what the kids wanted in their new playground. Well, this is a very good book and I think you should read it. I feel like reading more Bailey School kids book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Elves really do work, November 29, 2001

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Elves Don't Wear Hard Hats (The Adventures of the Bailey School Kids, #17) (Paperback)

The book report I am doing is called Elves Don't Wear Hard

Hats. It is about some kids where they need a new playground

for their school. They really want a new playground with some

swings. They have a building group come to make a new

playground, but they do not know what to build. They ask the

students what they wanted built, and the people who are going to

build it are Elves. The kids want a lot of things to be built

so they have to get going on it, so they tell them to all make a

list if they want to. (...) One day

something very exciting happened! I am not going to tell

what happend at the END so you have to READ it to find out!!!


I really liked this book. It made me want to read more of the

Bailey School Kids books. They are fun to read and have very

exciting endings. I would reccomend reading this book

The book got hear very fast and packed real good too. I'm so thankful I am able to get these books through Anazon.com because one of my granddaughters loves them and the library at her school only has a few and it is so nice to be able to find something that she is interest in reading.
