Don't Climb Out of the Window Tonight1 review
Richard McGilvray

Methuen young books, 1994

This story relates how chilren can be afraid of things in the night. It may leave the impression, however, that it is okay to climb out the window at night. So caregivers sharing this story with children should remind them it is not okay to do that. Some great vocabulary, such as "lurking" really ...

Natasha Wing

Simon & Schuster (Juv), 1994

This book was great.

I read a relative's copy of this book to my three year old daughter, five months ago, and she is still talking about it. The artwork is unique enough that you find something new in it every time you look at it. The rhymes are easy to read and are interesting to the young child. Her attention span ...
  
  











  



  
Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears3 reviews
Verna Aardema

Scholastic, 1980

This is one of my favorite books.

+ This is quality literature
+ This book is about how a mosquito gets the jungle in a jam

I liked it when the iguana pusts sticks in his ears because the mosquito told him a big lie. I liked it when the snake hid down in the rabbit's hole because the iguana wouldn't say hello to the snake. Catherine. Age 8

Today Is Monday8 reviews
Eric Carle

Putnam Juvenile, 1997

Meh

+ What's Not to Like?

This cumulative tale goes quickly through the days of the week, each day featuring a different animal and a different food. At the end of the book there's a bit of sheet music indicating how to sing the song. This is a very short book, and well-suited for toddlers. Not one of my favorites, but ...
