Cornelius has put his toys away, brushed his teeth, fed his fish, put on his PJs and picked out a book and he still isn’t ready for bed. There is only one thing missing…a HUG! This is a short and sweet book with bright illustrations and would be a perfect bedtime story for the little one you tuck into bed each night.
We love, love, love Karma Wilson books in our house. Bear is a little nervous about losing his first tooth, but his friends are beside him every step of the way. The tooth fairy even comes to visit and leaves Bear a tasty treat for the next morning.
This book is just as cute as all of Wilson’s other adorable Bear books and your kids will love it. This would be an especially great book for the child in your life who hasn’t lost any teeth yet, but is at about that age or any child who has lost a tooth or two, but still has several more to go.
Elephant’s bullying starts a chain of events that leads to Hippo being unkind to Lion and Lion snarling at Leopard and Leopard not being nice to Monkey. With the help of his mom, Monkey stands up for himself and talks to Leopard about his unkind words. Then Leopard think about what Monkey said and goes and talks to Lion and on and on until everyone’s wrongs have been righted.
This book would be a great talking tool to use with kids about being kind to others and how to handle situations on the playground or in their neighborhood when others are unkind to them.
I LOVE this book! LOVE. IT. Little Rabbit is turning the big 5 and now that he is old and doesn’t cry anymore, he decides he is only going to invite friends to his party that also don’t cry anymore. Unfortunately, as he goes around and invites each of his friends and explains to them why they are being invited, he finds that all of them still cry and for different reasons. Even his mom, he finds out, cries sometimes. Super cute and a great message…it’s okay to cry.

Two little girls who come from two different backgrounds. They love to play together and to draw together and to eat lunch together. One thing that is different about them though is that their lunches are different. One of them always has a hummus sandwich and the other always has a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Neither one of them tells the other that they think the other girl’s sandwich looks gross, until one day, they do and things just aren’t quite the same anymore. Luckily, after some time eating separate from each other and a very unfortunate food fight, the girls have an idea to bring the whole school together.
This is a super cute story inspired by an event that happened in the author’s life. There’s a blurb at the end of the story explaining what happened and what she learned from her experience.
Does your child have a favorite toy that they just cannot seem to live without? Tommy has lost his favorite truck. His mom, his dad and his siblings all try to help him find something else to do, but all he wants is his believed red truck. Maybe the dog knows where it is???
A cute rhyming story that could lead to a good discussion with your little one about their favorite toy and where they would look if they couldn’t find it and what they would play with until it turned up.
Wow! I LOVE this book. First of all, the illustrations are PHENOMENAL!!! This is one of the most gorgeous books I have read in a very long time. This is a great bedtime book as birds, frogs, cows, tigers and other furry creatures settle their own little ones in for the night. This book would also make a great gift for a new parent…a great baby shower gift perhaps.
If you have a little history buff in your house, then they will love this book. It is a fictional account of George’s 7th birthday. His whole family forgets…he has to do his school work and help his dad in the cherry orchard. Oh, but did they forget or is there a surprise waiting for George? Children will like this story because not only is it an engaging fictional story about our nation’s first president, but it also had facts about his life intertwined with the story.
