The Five Chinese Brothers (Paperstar)
Claire Huchet Bishop

Putnam Juvenile, 1996

Great book of the times; beware liberal ideology who insist racism
Keep in mind, this is an old Chinese tale, not somehow a racist American interpretation of Chinese culture like some reviewers here try to make it out to be. I read this book in the 1980s when I was just a few years old. It was my favorite book. It was simple, ...
  
  











  



  
Good Night, Gorilla
Peggy Rathmann

Putnam Juvenile, 1996

An amazingly detailed story with minimal words
This book is a keeper for all ages. Young children (and I mean really young, you'd be amazed at who will pay attention to these illustrations) can point out details and ideas with very few prompts. You can simplify your language when telling this story to a 15 month ...

A Mother for Choco (Paperstar)
Keiko Kasza

Putnam Juvenile, 1996

A mother for Choco; a story for my daughter
I absolutely adore this book. My sister gave it to us before we traveled to China to adopt our daughter. She's just over two now and has read this book with me dozens of times. We both love the illustrations, and even at a very young age, she "gets" the idea that Choco ...
  
  











  



  
Where's Spot? (Little Spot Board Books)

Putnam Juvenile, 2003

my baby's favorite
This has been my 10 month old baby's favorite book for the past 2-3 months ever since he could use his hands and fingers to flip the pages. We read it to him a few times and then we noticed him making sounds in the same tones as we did when we would flip open something ...
  
  











  



  
Eats, Shoots & Leaves: Why, Commas Really Do Make a Difference!
Lynne Truss

Putnam Juvenile, 2006

Great book for children of many ages
I ordered this book thinking it might be too young for my 9-year-old daughter. However, when it arrived it was pored over by not only my 9-year-old, but her 13-year-old brother as well. The copy I sent to my sister's children (ages 5 and 7) was also well-received. ...

Thunder Cake
Patricia Polacco

Thunder Cake
This is a wonderful book ! My grandaughter's teacher had the kids read it in class. I made a thunder cake and took it in for the class when they were done. The receipe is in the back of the book. They loved it and it was a lot of fun. Also, a good book for ...
  
  











  



  
Stand Tall, Molly Lou Melon
Patty Lovell

Great book!
I bought this book for my daughter who is an early childhood education major. She requested it after reviewing it in class. Great book!
  
  











  



  
The Girl's Like Spaghetti: Why, You Can't Manage without Apostrophes!
Lynne Truss

Putnam Juvenile, 2007

The Girl's Like Spaghetti is great!
I ordered this book to use in my 6th grade classroom. The pictures show the meaning of similar sentences with and without apostrophes. Using this book brings humor to reinforcing correct punctuation in writing for students and adults alike. The book includes the rules ...
  
  











  



  
Anno's Mysterious Multiplying Jar
Mitsumasa Anno

Putnam Juvenile, 1999

A lovely book on counting and factorials
This picture book is easy to read, and presents two math concepts: the first is counting to ten. The second is factorials: If there are three kingdoms in two countries on one island, then how many kingdoms are there altogether? Imagining some of the silly scenes ...
  
  











  



  
The Bee Tree
Patricia Polacco

Putnam Juvenile, 1998

A Sweet and Savory Story by One of the Very Best
"The Bee Tree" is another of Patricia Polacco's superb explorations of intergenerational friendship, and the significance of culture and tradition. Her expressive, folksy, slightly loopy style are all her own, and she has long been one of my favorite illustrators. ...
