Corduroy

Author: Don Freeman


I highly recommend this book, it has a good message and it is one of my favorite books. Its about a bear that lives in a store because nobody wants to buy him. Hes get rejected by a family all because his jumper is missing a button. He searches and searches around the store to find  a replacement button but no luck. In the end corduroy finds a home. I really like this book because it shows that no matter what your flaws are you can still be accepted. I recommend this to all children, parents and teacher its such a fantastic book.

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom


                                                 Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by  
                                by Bill Martin Jr. , John Archambault , Lois Ehlert (Illustrator)

                         I recommend this book for infants thru preschoolers. It is a fun way for them to learn their A.B.C. The book is about the letters in the alphabet racing to the top of the coconut tree and because there are 26 letters it becomes too heavy for the tree so they all fall off. You can kind of sing with the book because it has a rhythm to the reading. The book is really fun it has a variety of different colors and the flow of the book is very catchy. This book is another fun way of learning for students and great way for teacher to interact with there class.
