Today's Book of the Day!

Today's Book of the Day is Five Creatures
 by Emily Jenkins with Tomek Bojacki.



Five Creatures is so sweet and one of my all time favorite books for story-time.  Also, a great way to start a discussion about family relationships.

Today's Book of the Day is Big Mean Mike by Michelle Knudsen with illustrations by Scott Magoon.  








I love Knudsen's Library Lion and Big Mean Mike is funny with a great message that is not heavy handed.

Today's Book of the Day! Draw!

Today's Book of the Day is Draw written and illustrated by Raul Colon.  


Draw is a great, fun read, especially for those with a creative streak or a vivid imagination.  Mr. Colon is a gifted illustrator.  Luckily, he was a neighbor to my NY library and would visit and share his creations with us!
