Books to Excite, Teach and Encourage Young Readers
By iParenting Staff
This is a story about believing. Beautifully illustrated, the book's panoramic outdoor scenes capture the interest and imagination of children ages 2 to 8 and the inner child in all of us. The story centers around a town that has longed for a big snowfall for years, yet has never seen one. Then one night, as two children are gazing up at the moon wishing for it to snow, the Snowman in the Moon appears to them. They know at that moment something magical is about to happen.
Ellie: The Perfect Dress for Me! (Dancing Penguins, 2006) by C.M. Rubin
Having just the right dress for a very special occasion calls for careful planning, and Ellie's well-intentioned family and friends have plenty of fashion advice. Ultimately, Ellie decides to take matters into her own hands to find the perfect dress. And she does – in an imaginative and creative way that is unique to Ellie! A delightful sequel to Eleanor: Ellatony, Ellencake and Me! (Gingham Dog Press, 2003).
Mulch the Lawnmower (KRBY Creations, 2005) by Scott Nelson
A beautiful story about how you can be a star player and accomplish great things no matter what your size. A lesson about confidence and trying big things for children in grades one to four.
Knuffle Bunny: A Cautionary Tale (Hyperion, 2004) by Mo Willems and Alessandra Balzer
Best-selling author and illustrator Mo Willems uses a combination of muted black-and-white photographs and expressive illustrations in a stunning book that tells a brilliantly true-to-life tale about what happens when Daddy's in charge and things go terribly, hilariously wrong. An iParenting Media Award Winner!
