Rhyming text and bright illustrations make this a superb choice for storytime groups. Pair it with Kevin Henkes's Birds, Jennifer Ward's Mama Built a Little Nest, and Jeremy Tankard's Grumpy Bird for a feathered friend storytime. Recommended for all picture book collections.
An elegant read-aloud about a girl and her dog that features heroism, kindness, and a love of the sea. This will work well one-on-one or in a small group storytime.
This simple yet empowering story, best suited for one-on-one and small group sharing, is infused with examples of how beauty is defined in many ways.-Melissa Smith, Royal Oak Public Library, MI
As the book recounts the virtues of "beautiful girls," spirited illustrations offer their interpretations: "Beautiful girls move gracefully" describes girls playing soccer, rugby, and wheelchair basketball; "beautiful girls know all about makeup" has the girls covered in stubbly pirate beards. Each new page surprises with its empowered twist on worn-out sentiments, allowing girls to embrace their own brand of "beautiful."
Supporting 21st-century learning by combining art, science, math, and design, this is a strong purchase for school and public libraries, learning commons, and maker spaces. A noteworthy picture book that is sure to inspire.
Fans of the first two titles will want to follow Buddy and Earl in this next adventure. Great for fun-filled read-alouds and one-on-one shared readings.
This introductory picture book is a stepping stone to learning more about endangered species. Purchase for collections seeking younger materials on this topic.
