Picture Books
Journey
by Aaron Becker
This has to be one of the BEST picture books of the year. It is a wordless journey of a young girl who is bored because everyone is too busy to spend time with her. She uses her "magic" marker to draw a door to another world that starts her amazing journey. The illustrations are simply gorgeous.
Unicorn Thinks He's Pretty Great
by Bob Shea
Things are going just fine for Goat until Unicorn arrives. Unicorn can fly, has a cool horn and can make it rain cupcakes. Soon Goat realizes that he can do things that Unicorn can't and the two become friends.
Brief Thief
by Michael Escoffier
Kids will think this book is just HILARIOUS! Lots of "potty humor". It was not my kind of funny, but I can see my class rolling on the floor laughing at this book.
