OK. So I already had to love this one just for the cover. The poor chameleon just looks so dejected!
But then the rest of the book is also lots of fun. A super quick read but you'll spend time going back over the pictures.

"I'm Not Santa!" by Jonathan Allen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I have been on an owl kick lately. I can see today's library haul or wait list (several of Jonathan Allen's books) is not going to make that "kick" go away any time soon.
Baby Owl is a cutey!
And I just love the way he talks ... especially near the end of the story when he's telling his mama about his adventures. Run-on sentences galore but they sound just like a breathless little kid telling a story.
11 Experiments That Failed by Jenny Offill
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Great read aloud for modeling the scientific method. Well. If you preface it with "KIDS, DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME."

They all look fun.
ReplyDeleteI was just commenting on Twitter how I think picture book writers are some of the most clever bunch--I currently have two under contract, but I don't think I am clever. So, I need to find some cleverness soon--maybe that should be one of my New Year's resolutions. I just reviewed two really cute ones on my blog you may have read? Chester's Masterpiece and Brontorina. :)
