Mama is packed and ready for her business trip but Bunny doesn’t like when Mama leaves! Bunny tries to figure out how to make her stay or maybe if he packs a suitcase, Mama will take him along… nope. No worries, Papa has a better idea! They set off on grand adventures all over the house until Mama comes back home! BUNNIES STAYCATION (2018-Scholastic) by #LoriRichmond is a great book for families that have traveling mamas and papas. The story is chock-full of imaginative play, which I can’t get enough of! A young boy receives an invitation to a party but it plainly states -YOU MUST BRING A HAT! (2016- Sterling Children’s Books) When the hat maker is sold out, the boy negotiates with a hat wearing monkey to accompany him to the party. But when the doorman gives him more guidelines to enter the party, chaos ensues as he tries to fulfill the zany rules the doorman insists upon. The ending is spectacular! I absolutely love this story and oh, the illustrations are giggle worthy! It is written by #SimonPhilip and illustrated by #KateHindley. This is a fantastic read aloud and great for teaching sequencing! I hope you love it as much as I do! “You don’t have to be BIG and BRAVE to find your ROAR!” Cat has discovered hats and Dog isn’t having it because HATS ARE NOT FOR CATS (2019- Clarion Books). The author is #JacquelineKRayner. It’s a hilarious rhyming book in the style of Dr. Seuss. I don’t have to tell you how telling a cat what he can and can’t do goes over. It goes over about the way you think it will. The illustrations bring me joy! As a hat lover myself, I really enjoyed this story! I received a very special package yesterday! Tiffany Stone sent me her hilarious graphic picture book, WOOD WOULD (2021-Dial Books for Young Readers). It’s wonderfully illustrated by #MikeLowery! Poor Wood just wants to sleep like a log but an imaginative little girl won’t have it! If you like puns, you’re going to love this clever picture book! Around the world, the sky glows! From sunrise to rainbows to volcanic eruptions- the sky glows! WHEN THE SKY GLOWS (2022- Beach Lane Books) is written by #NellCrossBeckerman and brilliantly illustrated by #DavidLitchfield. The book moves from sunrise to night sky giving examples of different things that make the sky glow like fireflies and meteor showers. Accompanying the captivating illustrations is the scientific explanation of each event that makes the sky glow. You’ve got to see this book! It’s gorgeous and informative! A little girl finds a rubber band- not just any rubber band- a rubber band to call her very own! The possibilities are endless! It can be worn as a fashion statement, help fight off aliens to save the world, and can be used to exercise. Is there anything that can come between the girl and her rubber band? You’ll have to read to find out! Counting sheep is boring- that’s why people do it to fall asleep- right? Wrong! In NOT ALL SHEEEP ARE BORING (2022-GP Putnam’s Sons), a tiny toad sets out to prove that theory wrong. He introduces Alice who has a jet pack- NOT boring. Julie likes coffee and dancing- definitely NOT boring! But then there’s Steve- he may be a little boring. This hilarious picture book is written by #BobbyMoynihan and illustrated by #JulieRowanZoch. “Just because sharing is caring doesn’t mean it’s easy.” Olivia has a favorite sweater that she does everything in. But one day she outgrows it and it gets passed down to HIM!!(aka little brother). But when she discovers someone else in the family wore her sweater first, Olivia must learn how to let go and accept the possibility that there might be a new favorite sweater in her future. THAT’S MY SWEATER (2022-Dial Books for Young Readers) written and illustrated by #JessikaVonInnerebner is a relatable story about the not so easy journey of a hand-me-down sweater!
