Art: Drawing and cutting
Very cute look at how art is created and what makes something real (a shadow!).

Animals: Lamb
Great illustrations accompany Woolfred as he tries to challenge his food insensitivities. When his body cannot process the dandelions he eats, Crangle is unafraid to present a body's true reactions, however gross they may be, providing a situation that kids may relate to. The ending is a trite resolution when Woolfred decides he'd rather be playing with his friends than eating dandelions, which may not be convincing enough for many kids. Accompanied with a note to parents and caregivers.

Things That Go: Cars, trucks, vans, bikes
A repetitive picture book that reinforces the ability to distinguish objects by their color and type. The words are simple and merely a description of the vehicles on the page so the repetition is a bit obnoxious IF the parent is unwilling to talk about the pictures as they read along. I like how Steggall group the alike objects on the second to last page, allowing children to see alike and different.

A silly way to teach clothing and body parts to youngins. Repetition and bold illustrations make this perfect for reading aloud or for adapting as a flannel story.

Things that go: Tractor
Seasons: Spring, flood
The watercolor is muted but there is quite a lot of detail that Belton provides with his inked highlights. When a family car gets stuck in flood waters, everyone tries to help out but get stuck themselves. The girls show fear waiting on top of the car for someone to help them until the farmer retrieves his stowed away rusty tractor and saves the day. Even though the book shows the emotion of fear in the face of danger, it by no means is terrifying and children should be exposed to a myriad of emotions, instead of being sheltered from it.

Animals: Pigs
A fun bedtime story with suspense that follows a pattern. The little piggies should be in bed but playtime is much more enjoyable. As they play, they keep hearing mom climb the stairs to make sure they are asleep--which they are, of course. Until she goes back downstairs.

Animals: Arctic, polar bears
Simple, sponge art with rich pastels. Nothing extraordinary but the art is beautiful.

Familiar Experience: moving
Well executed friendship story with pleasant artwork. The little critter asides are a perfect touch that helps the ending be organic.

Animals: Forest
The forest animals take another wild ride with an item of the little red-capped boy--this time it is with his very own red cap! I love how Judge only incorporates one sound effect/onomatopoeia per page, so it is wordless but with a little bit of umph.

Toys: Stuffed animal bestie
Sam has so much fun making friends with another boy that he leaves his stuffed rabbit behind. Soft watercolors tell this tale of attachment and making new friends.
