I catalog hundreds of new picture books each year, and I read as many of them as I can. Unfortunately, I can’t review them all. But I can share them! Below are a few recent titles. (Summaries have been taken directly from the books whenever possible.) Check your local library or bookstore for availability.
A SCARF FOR KEIKO: After Sam’s Japanese neighbor, Keiko, is sent to an internment camp in 1942, he makes her a special gift as a token of friendship.
CAKE: After being invited to a party, Cake finds the perfect thing to wear, a brand new hat. So colorful!
THE DONKEY EGG: After Fox leaves him with a large, green egg, Bear spends weeks caring for it in the hopes that it will hatch.
WILD BABY: When her baby goes barreling through the jungle, it’s up to mama to make sure her curious tot doesn’t get into too much trouble.
ARRR, MUSTACHE BABY: Mustache Baby and his firstmate, Beard Baby, set out to be heroes on the high seas, but soon the lure of pirate treasure takes hold.

Cake – after being invited to a party … sounds like this could be a takeoff of the old Twilight Zone episode, “To Serve Man.”

Hmm…well he is the guest everyone’s been waiting for at the birthday party. I won’t give away what happens, but the book is super cute. 🙂
