Burton the Scarecrow Children's Books - Review & #Giveaway



The Burton The Scarecrow series is an adorable set of stories about a lovable scarecrow and his crazy adventures on the farm.  The stories are fun and the beautiful illustrations really grab a child's attention, but there is more than entertainment in store when you read these books. At the end of each story, you'll find vocabulary words, story concepts, listener tips, activities and more. These comprehensive books are a wonderful tool for parents, teachers, and librarians. Each book in the series covers new life lessons and well as reading comprehension skills, but they are so much fun, kids won't even realize how much they're learning.



Another interesting aspect about Burton the Scarecrow books is that they can be used for fundraisers. The program is ideal for a variety of organizations needing to fund raise – from scouting troops to PTAs to reading groups, schools and local libraries. The books are affordable and a great way to earn money for your cause while encouraging good reading skills. You can learn more about the Fundraising program on Boeholt Books. Choose from anyone of the following five titles or get them all!

 Dixie Duck has always wanted a family, but she doesn’t like all the commotion in Farmer Green’s fowl yard! Deciding to nest by the nearby creek, Dixie lays seven beautiful eggs in a pile of soft dirt. When she returns from sharing her good news, Dixie discovers that her precious eggs are missing!
