Another long winded picture book about kids getting up and moving before a swim meet. Each page is a “chapter” that asks a question. Then there is an explanation of idea the story portion was trying to convey. It's a lovely book, but not one I will pick up again.

Dav Pilkey has answered the age old question of “Why do cats sleep so much?” Its so they can dream. In the everyday world everything is the same. In the dream world they can dance on the head of dogs, fly over the moon and even wear tennis shoes. An interesting book, that can be found in a library. Maybe it’s time for an update.

Oh my goodness. The dog lover in my wants to curl up and cry. This book is about a boy growing up with his dog. But as the boy grows more playful and energetic, the dog ages into a slow old friend. A wonderful story with wonderful pictures.

When the rooster gets tired of Cock-a-doodle-doo he decides to put a little swing in things. But the rest of the farm is worried that the sun will not rise. A fun and swanky look at a new age farm with some critters too cool for the morning.

I really like this book and how it was laid out. It gives you ideas on new things to grow in your garden and how to grow them. It’s about taking some of the “odd” ingredients you find in restaurants from different regions and countries, and growing them in your own yard. Many I had never heard of like Hyacinth Beans and Salsola. Some I have heard of like White pine strawberry and Wasabi. (Who knew you could grow wasabi?) Lots of detail and pictures, I just wish there were some recipes so you would know how to crook these exotic things one you grow them.

This is a fun Dad and son book. Dad takes little fox out for a walk to discover the way various animals live. Including finding a new home for themselves.

This simple book is a look at various animals teeth and how they eat or how they talk. It is masterfully illustrated.

The tag line says this is a “book about visual discrimination”. The wording on the cover clues you in that this is an older board book, but it works really well for what it is trying to teach. Donald’s kitten is a small black and white creature. And many things in the house looks similar. Can you tell which is which.

This is exactly what it sounds like. A big book to help anyone draw cute animals, food, etc. It is a little more fast pace then many drawing books, but it works well.
