Picture Book Review: Albert's ABCs

 

This is a very cute story with simple text. There's a lot in this book, it's perfect for reading aloud. 

Board Books (13) Concepts

 

We just bought a bunch of new board books for our library.

I'll be talking about a few favorites over the next couple months

Today I'm talking about concept books:

Picking out differences and realizing that different is ok. Great Concept. Fun illustrations. Wonderful Message.

Bright colors are in this opposite book. Adorable illustrations - of course my favorite is the library one. Although libraries aren't quiet places anymore. 

Same illustrator as above - more bright illustrations for these colorful dogs who play in a world of colors. They have so much fun!

A must have for small Marvel fans - this is an alphabet book featuring so many Marvel characters.

Baby Shower Books to Gift

While baby showers happen all year round, it seems like this time of year, they happen more. I always like to buy books for gifts (Librarian) and I know it's popular for the hostess to ask everyone to bring a book to start off the child's library.

And you get multiple copies of Goodnight Moon, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, or Moo Baa La La La - all of which are fine books, but you don't need four copies of each.

Here's what I like to gift:

First mostly board books, for endurance.

Second, I LOVE the touch and feel books and there are So Many to chose from.  There's lots of pieces to touch and interact with the child.

Third: I Love concept books, it's never to early to learn, especially those from National Geographic. They have bright colors and great photographs.

 

Fourth, I Love these classic stories told as board books. They're not a retelling of the story, just using bits from the story as an introduction.

     

Hope this helps!
