National Geographic Kids Books *Review and Giveaway*

    Growing up, I was one of the nerdier kids in school, that loved to read and write.  I still do, and I'm still a little bit of a nerd.  LOL!  And I would have loved to get these books for my birthday!  Heck, I'd love to get them now (well, I already got them, but you know what I mean!).  As soon as the package came, me and Chris ore into it.  Then Chris declared, Audrey couldn't have the books cause she would just tear them up (which was true), and because he wanted them (yes, my bad boy loved to read National Geographic Kids books, I guess that goes to shows, their for just about anyone!).  Which was fine with me, because Audrey has so much stuff, and the books are a little advanced for her age.  So me, and him sat down, and got reading.  These books are a lot of fun, and have some great information in them!
    We got three different books to review, and thought all of them were great!  The Big Book Of Fun!:  Is exactly what it's name says!  Boredom-Busting games, jokes, puzzles, mazes, and more fun stuff.  With jokes, games, and more outrageous fun!  More than 200 colorful photos and illustrations!  Brain-teasing trivia, quizzes for you and your parents!  Amazing animals, totally wild mazes take you through jungles, under the sea, and into space!  Discover funny zoo animals hiding in the city.  Slip and slide down an awesome water slide, and go on even more adventures.  Retails for $6.99.
    Weird But True!: Has 300 outrageous facts.  300 wacky, wild, mind-bending facts about everything on Earth and beyond.  Animals, food, science, pop culture, outer space, geography, weather, and more!  Trivia that will wow your friends, and family!  You won't be able to stop turning the pages of this brainteasing treat.  Retails for $6.95.
    Almanac 2011: celebrate culture, awesome animals, and daring adventure.  Fun facts, everything you always wanted to know about everything!  More than 500 incredible photo, plus games, puzzles, homework help, and more!  In the new, fully updated National Geographic Kids Almanac 2011, you'll come face-to-face with your favorite animals and go on exciting adventures on every page.  You'll find:  more than 700 pages of amazing animals, over 500 stunning photographs.  A brand-new Future World chapter, illustrated with amazing CGI-style art.  Up-to-the-minute features about adventure, technology, the environment, and much, much more.  Retails for $13.99.
    Overall we really liked the National Geographic Kids books!  They were very interesting, and we learned a lot of different cook stuff.  These would be great for a discovery birthday party, or a great birthday gift!  I would recommend these to any parent with children 8 and up!  These are great for learning, but having fun while doing it!  And now for the fun part.  The giveaway details are below, good luck, and have fun! :)
