Little Panda

Julie Abery, illustrated by Suzie Mason

Little Panda is a rhyming board book about a baby panda’s activities outdoors. The young animal winks and blinks, notices a snowy day, and tumbles out to play. Its activities lead to trouble, which Mama resolves. The text uses action-focused language and sturdy rhymes, while the illustrations place the young animal in stylized natural surroundings. The story pairs the panda’s small adventure with the nearby care of its mother.

Though their interests and pace differ, the two dogs accept each other and enjoy their time together.Five to NineOn the same reading list for the same age or grade groupView book details
Cover of Just in Case You Want to FlyJust in Case You Want to FlyJulie FoglianoA parent readies a child for independence with a succession of imaginative possibilities and reassuring offerings. Each possibility considers something the child may wish to do, including flying, singing, or crying, then supplies objects, sounds, or gestures that might help. The ideas range from useful items to deliberately unlikely ones. Playful illustrations follow the child through a day from morning to bedtime, alongside a varied group of characters that includes a child who uses a wheelchair. The open-ended structure encourages children to devise possibilities of their own.Under FiveWord Count 178On the same reading list for the same age or grade groupView book details
