Adventures for Kids for All Ages
My pick for December is, Bear Stays Up For Christmas written by Karma Wilson and Illustrated by Jane Chapman.
Bear’s friends are determined to keep Bear awake for Christmas! So they wake Bear up and have him help them find a Christmas tree, bake cakes, hang up stockings, and sing Christmas songs. Bear stays up—by discovering that giving is one of the best Christmas presents of all!
My book pick for November is, Manners with a Library Book by Amanda Doering Tourville and Illustrated by Chris Lensch.
It is important to use good manners with a library book. Good manners allow others to enjoy the book when you are done.
Tia and her brother Jaden each find two books at the library. They follow the library’s instructions for checking out the books.
My book pick for October is, Froggy Picks A Pumpkin by Jonathan London and illustrated by Frank Remkiewicz.
He imagines the delicious pumpkin pie he’ll bake. He pictures a line of jack-O-lanterns lighting the Halloween sky.
The pumpking-picking contest will have prizes for biggest, smallest, prettiest, and ugliest pumpkin, and Froggy is sure he will win a prize.
But somehow the contest doesn’t turnout the way Froggy expects!

My book pick for September is, The Cool Bean by Jory John, and Illustrated by Pete Oswald.
Everyone knows the cool beans. They’re sooooo cool.
And then there’s the uncool has-bean . . .
Always on the sidelines, one bean unsuccessfully tries everything he can to fit in with the crowd—until one day the cool beans show him how it’s done.
With equal measures of humor, wit, and charm, the #1 New York Times bestselling duo Jory John and Pete Oswald craft another incredible picture book, reminding us that it’s cooler to be kind.
