A Funny Little Bird
by Jennifer Yerkes
A unique picture book with an "accept yourself" theme. 
For Pre-K-2


A Perfect Day for Digging

This book reminds us of the simple pleasure of digging in the dirt. Fun for Pre-K-2.

Feathers: Not Just For Flying

Excellent nonfiction picture book. Review coming on Wed. 
Good for K-4.

  1. Looks like Feathers would be a good companion book for Aviary, Inc. A Perfect Day for Digging looks mighty cute as well. :) Thanks for sharing all these.

  3. I loved Feathers! There have been so many good bird books published in the past few years, I've started making a list of them! I put Funny Little Bird on hold, that's a new one for me. I keep forgetting about Annika - my daughter read the first one in the series and she's mentioned this one. Need to find it :) Thanks for sharing!

  4. Dan Krokos is one to watch. I love that there are more space adventure sci if books coming out and not as many dystopian ones.

  5. Feathers is such a great title. I am a big fan of Melissa Stewart for nonfiction titles. Loved her No Monkeys No Chocolate too.

  8. Thanks for these great titles, Gigi! Feathers is one I really enjoyed - there were a lot of "bird" books that came out this spring! I don't know A Funny Little Bird but it is certainly one I am going to look for! Have a great week!
