The Baby's Bedtime Book

The Baby's Bedtime Book

By Kay Chorao

Summary: This book contains 28 bedtime poems and lullabies for children. Some are very well known lullabies such as "Hush, Little Baby" and "Rock-a-bye Baby" are in this book. Some lesser known poems such as "Good Night" and "Safe in Bed" are also included in this collection. This book is filled with beautiful, colored illustrations. There is one for each poem or lullaby. 

Review: This collection has great illustrations that are sure to catch the attention of children. This book would be great for read aloud in class. This book would also be great for children to read by themselves, but they may need help understanding the concepts within the poems. I would suggest it for 2nd graders.

The Day the Crayons Quit

The Day the Crayons Quit Written by Drew Daywalt & Illustrated by Oliver Jeffers Overview: One day in class, a little boy named Duncan took out his crayons and found a stack of letters with his name on them. Each letter was written by one of his crayons. The red crayon, the pink crayon, the green crayon, and so on. Each crayon had written Duncan about he felt in regards to their overuse or underuse in his drawings or other issues that they felt needed to be addressed. When Duncan was finished reading all of the letters he tired to think of a way to appease all of his crayons and decided to draw and incredibly creative picture with all of his crayons. Duncan got an A+ on his drawing! This book takes a comical look at creativity from a crayon's perspective. This entertaining book can be read by 2nd graders and would make such fun read aloud for children.  Awards: 2014-2015 Bluebonnet Award To order your own copy:  https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-day...
