Board Books: Round Up


I received some board books for review and I fell in love with them. All of these books are diverse in characters, which is what libraries are looking for right now. Windows, doors, and mirrors!

The following books are great books for your library and also make great gifts for baby showers!

Pride 1 2 3

Pride 1 2 3 is a concept book - counting and celebrating Pride.
Lots of diversity in this book because it's never too early to start spreading love and acceptance for all.


I Will Talk to You, Little One

A book for parents about literacy tips and talking with your children. Sharing vocabulary gives them a head start with reading and literacy skills. Plus the illustrations are from the legendary Tomie DePaola. 

Go, Grandpa, Go!

A sweet story about Grandpa and children on the go go go! Obviously I love the library scene the best. Lots of bright colors here. 

Go, Grandma, Go!

Grandma has her book too! I love both the winter scene and the reading scene here. Lots of fun these grandparents have with their grandkids.
