Shout Out to the Girls

Shout Out to the Girls is my definite pick of the month for a must have book, especially for Australian children and teens.  With all the royalties going to The Smith Family charity you not only get to read the book but help those in need.

Congratulations to the various Penguin Random House women that put this together, I thank you for opening my mind to possibilities.

How to Say I Love You in Five Languages

There is so much to love about this book especially if you want to learn how to say “I love you” in English, Spanish, Japanese, Mandarin, and French.  With some words on each page and  buttons to press to hear the pronunciation of “I Love You”, this book has the right combination to engage your child in languages by site and sound. 

Guff

Sometimes I wonder whether picture books are written for us the adults too, or whether something just resonates with us that it just feels that way.  This is how this book was for me,  first of all I loved it – its hard not to love Aaron Blabey books – and second I think we have all had or have a guff in our lives whether it be a fabric or human friend.
