CARL'S BIRTHDAY

By Alexandra Day

This is one of a series of books involving a dog named Carl and a baby. It has very few words, it is just pictures of what Carl and the baby do while mom an dad are out. The art work is very well done. This book is a must for young children, lets them invent the story!

THE LITTLE MOUSE THE RED RIPE STRAWBERRY AND THE BIG HUNGRY BEAR

Written by Audrey Wood
Illustrated by Don Wood

This is a cute book. The kids I watch introduced me to it and it was soon everyone's favorite!! They loved for me to recite the words even though we didn't have the book, like when driving.
