Adventures for Kids for All Ages
My book pick for June is And Then Comes Summer written by Tom Brenner and illustrated by Jaime Kim.
When the days stretch out like a slow yawn, and the cheerful faces of Johnny-jump-ups jump up . . . then it’s time to get ready for summer! From flip-flops and hide-and-seek to fireworks and ice-cream trucks, lemonade stands, and late bedtimes.
Recommended Ages 3-7
My book pick for May is Farmer Bear’s Garden written by Chris Magee and illustrated by Lezlee Ware.
Spring has arrived at last, and Little Bear is finally old enough to help his dad in the garden. Join Farmer Bear and Little Bear as they plant the seeds, water the plants, pull out the weeds, and then harvest their vegetables once everything is ready.
Recommended Ages 3-7
My book pick for April is Violets Music written by Angela Johnson and illustrated by Laura Huliska-Beith.
There’s nothing Violet loves more than music, and she plays or sings every chance she gets. But where are the other kids like her who think and dream of music all day long? As a baby, in kindergarten, at the beach, and at the zoo, she never gives up looking for companions. And then one summer day…
Recommended Ages 4-7

My book pick for March is The Thing About Spring written by Daniel Kirk.
Mouse, Bird, Bear, and Rabbit are friends. Though Mouse, Bird, and Bear love winter, they’re all excited that spring is finally here. But not Rabbit. He thinks that spring can only spell trouble: He won’t be able to make snow bunnies, the days are too long, and it rains all the time.
