Hi Linda,
I have just read "One is a Feast for a Mouse". I think this is a great book for its simplicity, lovely illustrations and good message about taking what you need, not what you desire. A good lesson in today's world.

Hi Linda,
I think Curious George, by H.A. Rey is an adorable timeless adventure of a monkey who is very curious, something we want all of our children to be (at least a little bit).

Hi Linda,
I am very interested to read "Bird Lake Moon" by Kevin Henkes because he is the author of some of my favorite picture books: "Wemberly Worried" and "Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse". I think he does an amazing job capturing the feelings of these characters, it would be interesting to read what he does in a Realistic Fiction chapter book.
