Here is a small list of some picture books I have recently enjoyed:
Mirror Mirror: A Book of Reversible Verse
By Marilyn Singer
Illustrated By Josee Masse
Poems from Fairy Tales written from two perspectives (reversible text). Radical Change.
Personal Thoughts: Loved it!
Gods & Heroes
by Matthew Reinhart & Robert Sabuda
An Encyclopedia of mythological tales
Traditional Sabuda Pop-Up construction
Personal Thoughts: Engaging and educational tool to cross curricula. Fantastic!
City Dog. Country Frog
By Mo Willems
Illustrated by Jon Muth
A city dog's adventure in the country. Friendship, gentle example of a friend's passing. Seasons
Personal Thoughts: What a great combo...Willems and Muth. Not what we have been seeing from Willems, but absolutely wonderful.
The Chicken Thief
By Beatrice Rodriguez
Wordless picture book. Quick story of misunderstanding. Friendship and adventure
Personal Thoughts: I love almost any wordless picture book, and this one is right there.
Chester's Masterpiece
By Melanie Watt
Book Writing. Radical Change.
Personal Thoughts: Melanie Watt is quickly becoming one of my favorite author/illustrators. Loved the dialog in this book.
Happy Reading,
Dr. Quinn
