About Me
- Marya Jansen-Gruber
- Ashland, Oregon, United States
- I am the editor for Through the Looking Glass Book Review. I started this website what seems like eons ago and now the site contains four thousand reviews. The reason why I started this site was because I wanted to provide parents, teachers, homeschoolers, and others with a free source of children's book reviews and other related information. I only write positive reviews. If I don't like a book I am sent I don't review it. On the personal side, I am the daughter of journalists and authors and though I did study zoology, I am now firmly entrenched, happily so, in the children's literature world. I live in lovely Ashland, Oregon with my husband, my daughter Elise, two dogs, two elderly cats, and two young Siamese cats who are a pair of holy terrors. When I am not working I like to ride my bike, go for walks, ski, garden, and knit.

Bookish alter egos?
One of my alter egos
Mrs. Tittlemouse - by Beatrix Potter
Some of my favorite children's books
- The Little House Books - My grandmother gave me the complete set and I read and reread them again and again. They are timeless and irresistable
- Books by Richard Scarry - I think these books taught me to read more than my teachers did.
- Books by Roald Dahl - Classic books which I am enjoying all over again as I review them and read them to my daughter
- The Artemis Fowl Books - I literally howled with laughter when I read these. No home should be without them
- The Barbapapa Books - Alas no longer in print but I remember them with great affection
- The Eloise Books - Eloise is priceless. She makes me laugh out loud
- The Babar Books - I have loved these since I was very little when I read them in French
