A very sweet story about a kid learning how apologies and forgiveness work. Wordless, with pops of color showing you which pieces of the pictures to pay attention to.
Nonbinary character was misgendered in the text in which they were introduced, not by a character but by the narrator, and it made me not want to read the book anymore.
Pair with Life After Whale for a great conversation about life cycles and ecosystems.
Sweet and bouncy, a little long for storytime but good for a lap sit book or perhaps a cooking program with older children. Recipe at the end.
Poetic. The golden sunshine sequentially fills each thing as they go through the food chain.
Great SEL book. Goat isn't actually best at much, but he can still find moments to shine.
Very sweet, probably would work for a yoga class but not for my Music and Movement since it would take crawling around more wildly than I have space for.

Gorgeous pictures and a very surreal book. Much along the lines of Winken, Blinken and Nod, I would count this more as an illustrated poem than as a picture book, but it's a very nice one.

Complex math explained in ways that will excite the imagination, and not gatekept to those in the profession.
