Advantages: Easy to get into. Cute graphics. Fun for casual gamers. Disadvantages: Lack of depth. Some games have finicky controls.
Long term fans of the Sims series from EA Games should have a pretty good idea of what to expect from this. MySims is the cuter child-friendly end of the franchise and particularly suits the casual gaming audience of the Wii; you don't need to micromanage your characters to keep their spirits up, but instead get on with solving problems for them in a more straight forwards fashion. The third in the series, MySims Party, crosses this with the already popular genre on the Wii of party games with somewhat mixed results.
The interface is fairly intuitive and you get to design your characters from plenty of options for hair, face, eyes, etc. It's like the Mii editor on steroids and you could quite easily sit down for half an hour and not get beyond this stage if you want to go through all the possibilities.

It's my birthday
A beautifully simple book, published in 1993; it has stood the test of time because children have birthdays and they understand the importance of a cake. This is a book even very young children can relate to and can draw comparisons with their own birthdays.
**THE STORY**
Very very simple. It's about a little boy or girl (it's made purposefully ambiguous, so both sexes can relate to the story) is looking forward to their birthday and says that he/she is going to make a cake. (For the purpose of this review I am going to call the little person he)
So we begin an informative little account of which ingredients are needed to go into a cake. The little person goes to the hens and tells them that he needs some eggs. Being helpful chickens, they offer to help, and their little wings pick up the eggs for him.

Advantages: Unexpected twist in simple tale Disadvantages: Far too short
Background:
I read my first novel by Lesley Glaister over six months ago. Promising to myself that I would read another very soon. Well eventually I have got round to it!! I found this novel in the library and thought it was worth a try as I do not think you can judge an author on just one piece of work.
About the author:
Lesley Glaister was born in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire in 1956. Novelist Hilary Mantel first discovered her writing skills in 1989. Since then she was written 13 highly acclaimed suspense/mystery novels. The book I am reviewing was published in 2007. Her style of writing has been compared to Ruth Rendell or Ian McEwan.
Synopsis of the book:
Marion and David are very sad when their next-door neighbour Pat moves away, as over the years she had been a good friend to them. However the new ...
