I Don't Care! Said the Bear 3 reviews Colin West
Walker Books Ltd, 1996
4 1/2 * A One-Joke Note
+ My 8 year old still loves this book!! + The Best
There's not much plot to this book, but it's done extremely well. IT is made for reading aloud, with jumpy rhymes and repetition. "There's a moose on the loose!" Next page: "There's a moose on the loose and a bad-tempered goose!" And so on, until the bear also says "I don't care to a "pig who is ...

A Friend for Minerva Louise 3 reviews Janet Morgan Stoeke
Dutton Juvenile, 1997
Hilarious and reminiscent of Amelia Bedelia
+ I Love Minerva Louise! + Best Book Ever Written For Children
My five year old brought this book home in his nightly reading bag yesterday. We read it no less than three times and then he read it some more to himself after I put him to bed. It's a great book with well-drawn pictures and a funny story. The last page had us rolling. Now I see that there are ...

Contrary Mary 2 reviews
Candlewick, 1995
I loved this book
+ Is this your child?
I read to 3-4 year olds at a day care center, and my name is Mary, so I took a chance on this book, and I am glad I did. Mary gets up in the morning feeling contrary. All day long she does contrary things (asking for roast potatoes and gravy for breakfast, riding her bicycle backwards). Finally, ...

When I'm a Big Sister 1 review Bruce Lansky
Meadowbrook, 2003
This book is GREAT!!
My daughter LOVES it, and so do I. You put your daughter's picture in the back so that every page shows her face on the big sisters body, then you fill in all the blanks with a permanent marker to describe your daughter and her feelings about becoming a big sister. When you're finished it becomes ...

Terrible Teresa and Other Very Short Stories
My four year old daughter loves this book! For her it has become such a favorite that she has memorized each short rhyming story and she can recite them to us. This is the first step toward reading on her own.

The Accidental Zucchini: An Unexpected Alphabet 3 reviews Max Grover
Voyager Books, 1997
this works in the classroom --unlike many of the new ABCs
+ Class Favorite + I thought the book was good
This books keeps the letters graphically clear as symbols ( so kids can ID them ) yet is funny and appeals to their magic thinking. Kids love it, and as a footnote adults will like it too.

Little Lumpty 3 reviews
Candlewick, 1996
My 3-4 yr. old Munchkins loved Little Lumpty and "The Wall!"
+ Little Lumpty + LITTLE LUMPTY
Being a couselor for 3-4 year olds all summer can be a challenge, but Little Lumpty was a great addition to our program. The kids loved this updated version of the classis Humpty Dumpty Story. You know they are hooked when they ask you to read it again and again. 7 times it was read in one ...
