The Clubhouse Cabobble (Cackleberry Creek Book 3) Reviews
-
The cute story for children was enjoyable. The illustrations, the colours and the small chapters were beautiful. Would definitely enjoy reading it to children

My first review for a children's story couldn't be for a better written, age perfect story. I think the usual comments regarding plot, characterization, dialogue, and the author's technical skill or lack thereof are in many ways unnecessary here. So, I'll tell potential readers this:
When I was a young father, I often read stories to my two sons. For the most part, these were the classic fairy tales and some of those were pretty scary for a two to six year old. I wish I'd had more stories like The Clubhouse Cabobble. The story line and the writing style is perfectly fit for children. It's lighthearted in style while including several "teaching" points about getting along, managing conflict, friendly competition, and helping each other. This is a happy story with a wonderful solution at the end and I'll be reading this and stories like it to my grandchildren. -
This is a light-hearted children's book embedded with relevant meanings.
What I like the most are the messages Ms. Volchko endeavors to convey. A gang of adorable animals on the farm find a tree trunk while cleaning up the mess after a dreadful storm. Both boys and girls have their hearts set on a particular usage of the tree trunk—making a clubhouse. However, the ideas are far apart between boys and girls. Through storytelling, the author teaches youngsters about teamwork, problem-solving, and helping one another with kindness and generosity.
I highly recommend this book to the fourth to sixth graders. -
Both the boy and girl critters want to use a tree-log for a clubhouse. They fight and argue, and can't decide who will get the log. They decide to race on the river, the winner getting the log. But when the losing team gets stuck in a current, the leading team turns back to help them. Finally, everyone decides to share the log. What a sweet story with important lessons on sharing and helping others.

A delightful read!
I loved this delightful children's picture book! All of the animals at Cackleberry Creek are friendly and helpful with each other. After a rain storm, the guys helped to clean up and the girls wove baskets until they decided to make a yummy lunch for the guys and their hard work. While eating, the girls told the guys that they were going to decorate a new club house in a fallen old hollow tree with lots of pink used. The said no, they saw the tree first and it was to be their den. To settle the dispute, a race in the creek was planned with rafts. The boys raft ended up sinking and the girls rescued them! The girls won the race but lost old tree as it was being cut up for wood to burn. Surprise! The beaver family had spent the day building a wooden tree house that had rooms for the girl animals and rooms for the guys. Such a sweet ending. Five stars! -
Competition leads to friendship
A really nicely written and entertaining story about a group of female forest critters who battle over a fallen tree, which they hope to make it into a clubhouse, with a group of young male critters who have other plans for the tree. They decide on a race down the river to see who gets control over the tree, and thus the adventure begins. The story has plenty of adventurous turns and the ending brings a nice surprise from a group of clever beavers. I would say the target reading level is around 6 to 8 year olds. -
A great introduction to chapter books
This was a lovely book to read. I recommend it to kids that are struggling with reading chapter books. The story is interesting, and the language is light and easy. -
Cute story!
The animals find a fallen tree and want it as their club house, but who will get it? The boys or girls? A sweet story about cooperation and kindness. -
A fun read with colourful illustrations. Underlying values of friendship and getting along to help one another.

This book is a complete delight!!
My two girls and I read this together, and absolutely loved it.
We talked about what we thought was going to happen, and couldn't wait to turn the page to see if we were right.
I loved the names of the characters, which helped identify who was who very easily for my girls and me. When we read out Randy Racoons name, my eldest pointed him out straight away. The name did make me smirk.
This book brings with it a lot of family/friend values, and it was good to see my girls recognising this, and agreeing that everyone might disagree at times, but that friendship is where it's at.
Primarily this is a children's book, however an adults I was completely drawn into the story, and loved the pace of the book.
It was also good to see my children laughing at the story along with the characters.
A brilliant book! And a complete and utter joy to read! I heartily recommend it! -
Heart-warming reading for kids and parents wishing to remain being kinds in their dreams. Kids can learn a lot from The Clubhouse Cabobble (3rd part in the Cackleberry Creek series) – being adventurous, sincere, vision of life, kindness and enjoyment of every turn of life, just like every twist in this excellent book by Kristy Jo Volchko. Walking around this story with the characters as Barry Beaver and Manny Mosquito is like walking through life with proper friends and great lesson for kids. Kristy’s book is amazing reading which is catching from the very first page.
