Re: 分享外國或台灣童書收穫 (PART 2) (1-8歲適用) (from 27 Sept 05)

che,

Tks but no tks la, for the pandan cake.
A cousin of mine is going to Sing too, also w/in these 1 or 2 weeks, so my mum will have some supplies.
Buy some more books like ORT and a few more pandan cakes la, the cakes are light but bulky to carry ga.

I went to Pg1 today and found a few books / sets which looked good, the following is from Malaysia so should be available from Sing gwa I think, you may like to take a look :

The series is called : Phonics in Reading
the publisher's website : www.rhythm.com.my

Shopaholic bookaholics, take a look at these :

Usborne Better English
- Improve your grammar (HK$49.50)
-- suitable for Pr school kids

for boys :
Usborne Flip Flaps
- Travel and Transport - Then and Now (HK$74.50)

But I am used to the price of Mainland Chin books, so didn't buy.

[size=small]When Cows Come Home (Hardcover)

by David L. Harrison, Chris L. Demarest (Illustrator)
-"When cows come home at the end of the day,/They swish their tails and gently sway," behaving in a most "cowlike way." When Farmer turns his back, however, his bovine herd kicks up its heels and has a rollicking good time playing tag, fiddling, dancing, biking, and swimming. As the beasts return to the barn, though, they once again act like cows. With a tweak of illustrative humor at the end, Farmer winks at readers-he knows what those cows have been up to all day.

[size=small]Who Wakes Rooster?

by Clare Hodgson Meeker, Megan Halsey (Illustrator)
Ages 2^-4. This engaging book is built around the fact that roosters crow at sunrise. It begins by asking where each farm animal is. The dog is sleeping because the cat isn't meowing because the horse isn't neighing, and so forth, all because the sun hasn't risen and rooster hasn't crowed. Double-page illustrations in dusky blues, greens, and purples show each animal in its resting place.

Re: 分享外國或台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫 - PART 2 (as from 27 Sept 05)

Dear all,

I've just come back from Disneyland HK.

I stayed at Disneyland hotel on Sunday and went to the park yesterday.

Weather was fine, but there was quite crowded!! We need to queue up for about half an hour for each game!!

But still very enjoyable!! :-P

snoopyma,

I do not know SS is about to close their CWB store la. May go and take a look! Tks!

bluestar,

Yes, some thomas books are expensive. Out of the $60 book price, I think $50 went for the licence fee of thomas figure.

Gloria,

che,

Enjoy you Sin trip!! Tks for the pandan cake in advance la. Re: "I can read by myself", actually greenfield always hold its bookfair, so no hurry gar!

Re: 分享外國或台灣童書 (1-8歲適用) 收穫 - PART 2 (as from 27 Sept 05)

Gloria,

I think it's wise to cancel the hotel booking !!

I paid almost $2K for a room with the so-called park view, but my room was actually facing the carpark. (真係名符其實嘅"

ark" view...hahaa...).For other rooms with better view facing the pool/sea, they are more expensive (~$2.5K).

Though the front door entrance may give you some resort-feel (yes, it looks like Shangrila at Phuket to certain extent), but the hotel is in fact quite small, and both its room size and pool size are small too!!

Most importantly, the $2K I paid was for cost of room only ..... breakfast was excluded!! If you want to eat buffet breakfast at the hotel, Enchanted Garden (w/ Disney character) is charged at $198/head. So I finally went to Tung Chung to have my breadfast la!!

che,

Tks for the purchase. Yes, you may drop the pandan cake at Idea on Sat and I will leave the $$ of the cake to Ms. Square for you la. Pls PM me the price la.

Re: HK Disneyland, as I used most of the time to queue up, I've only tried their Rocket resaturant at Tomorrow Land. So I did not try the one with character.

btw, if you stay in Disneyland hotel, you may go to Enchanted Garden at 1/F (restricted to hotel residents only) to have you meals. Mickey and Goffey shall come along to dine with you.
