I have a goal to read 100 picture books in 2025!
A Tree Is Nice
Janice May Udry
Marc Simont
I like the way the pages alternate black & white with color. The book is about the usefulness of trees.
Caldecott
Smoky Night
Eve Bunting
David Diaz
With modern illustrations & dark colors reminiscent of the title of the book, Eve takes us into a house with mother and child watching a riot across the street. In this short picture book, she shows love, fear, blessings, and how new relationships/friendships can be created through a shared experience.
Caldecott
Sylvester and the Magic Pebble
William Steig
If you get a magic pebble, you must think before you wish anything, or you'll be stuck in a rock until someone comes along and helps.
Caldecott
Time of Wonder
Robert McCloskey
The book takes you through the seasons of Penosbscot Bay. It's lyrical writing is about 3rd grade level. The images are soft pastel colors.
Where Is the Green Sheep
Mem Fox
Judy Horacek
A cute bedtime story but you say "sheep" a lot.
