I just love how the book is able to give human feelings to nonliving things . The combination of the black background and the white text makes the reader able to read , while the mixture of tender moments of love and gripping action makes readers crave for more .

The chair featured on the cover page is beautifully depicted, making it appealing to children who enjoy bringing inanimate objects to life through play. This charming book is sure to resonate with young readers and bring them joy. Well done on being chosen as #BOTD!

The enchanting tale of "The Movie Chair" by Shari Borkin beautifully captures the chair's longing for children's company, weaving heartwarming lessons through skillful illustrations and engaging storytelling. A delightful read.

I liked that the children's book teaches children which movies are appropriate to watch. However, I don't think children should be watching scary movies as the author portrays through the chair. Thanks for the review.

Hi @Deborah Belanger, I just read your comments on the official review of "The Movie Chair" and I agree this is a wonderful book for children, Th illustrations and lessons taught throughout this book provide learnings for parents and young children. I am looking forward to reading this magical story to my great grandchildren. I ordered a paperback copy so it will be easier to show the illustrations as I read this book to my three great grandchildren. @Mrlefty0706

Hi @Leighton Zink, I just read your comments on the official review of "The Movie Chair" and I also love children's books because I enjoy reading them to my 3 great grandsons. This book is well-written and includes several important lessons for children and the adult reading the book to them. I ordered a paperback copy so that it is easier for the great grandsons to see the illustrations of this magical chair that children love. @Mrlefty0706

Hi @Michael Joseph 17, I just read your in-depth review of the official review of "The Movie Chair" and I enjoyed your display of a great vocabulary although at times I had to stop and think about what you were saying. You have improved my vocabulary and I can visualize your perceptive view of this story. I have purchased a paperback copy of this book so that my three great grandsons and see them while I read the story. @Mrleftry0706

Hi @Elina Tshabalala, I just read your comments on the official review of "The Movie Chair" and I am confident that the renovation did not just chuck the chair away. You will need to read the story to find out what happens to this magical chair. I found this a wonderful book with incredible illustrations. I purchased a paperback copy so that my three great grandsons can see them while I read them the book. @Mrlefty0706

Hi @tarafarah7, I just read your comments on the official review of "The Movie Chair" and I liked your right to the point review. Some readers write lengthy reviews repeating the text from the official review while others prove they have read the sample and official review and summarize their comments in one short paragraph and this is what I believe we are supposed to do. I liked this book so much that I ordered a paperback copy so that my three great grandsons can follow along with the illustrations as I read the book to them. @Mrlefty0706
