New Books for October (Part 2)

Here is the next batch of new books!


Doesn't the cat look so grumpy that you want to cuddle him?  Now, I'm not a cat lover at all, but this book did turn me into loving cats more.  The adorable cat wonders why his owner brings home a new item, but soon finds out its not so fun after all.  The adorable illustrations and storytime will steal your heart and leave you in stitches!  (I had to sneak that in there, I couldn't help it.)


The bouncy little bears are back for a romp in the snow.  The rhyming words will make you feel like you are sliding down the hills with the cuddly bears.  A perfect read for a snowy storytime.


I am in love, love, love with this board book.  I can't begin to do this book justice, but I will try.  Each page has the letter raised up off the page, and on the opposite side the letter will set inside the space cut out for it.  For instance, V is for Volcano.  I spent a crazy amount of time feeling the letters and spaces of this book, and I promise you'll do the same.  There are others in this series, and I can't wait to see them too!


I am such a big fan of this author, but this book fell a little short for me.  As you turn each page, you will see each animal shedding little tears.  But the surprise is something is appearing on the opposite side, a beautiful rainbow.  I do love that part of the book, but some of the animals aren't as cute as I had hoped they would be.

 
The cuddly, fuzzy, red love monster is back at it again!  This time he's trying to go to sleep, but a monster is after him.  Who could it be?  You must read this book to find out.....


How are dragons supposed to act?  According to the father of this bubble breathing dragon, they shouldn't spew out whipped cream or band-aids!  I can't wait to use this book in storytime and make it interactive.  What I'd like to do is every time the dragon spits something out, I hope to throw that item out onto the kids.  Everything except the whipped cream, of course!


Who took Pete's missing cupcakes?  Which friend of his is the culprit?  What a fun guessing book starring our favorite cat of them all, Pete!  


I have been looking for a long time for a book that has great music for the five speckled frogs song.  Finally, I've struck gold!  Not only is the music filled with authentic sounding frogs, but this version adds a new verse to the song.  After all the frogs jump in the river, they jump back onto the log.  A great sing-along version that your kids will love!
