This book is the best of all books


Book cover Hi, Harry!
Martin Waddell (2003) , under 40 pages
Illustrated by Barbara Firth
Audience: Toddlers, Preschool
Category: Read Aloud
(This book has outstanding illustrations)


Harry is a very slow tortoise. He is so slow that he can’t seem to make any friends. All the animals he meets act as if they are too fast to stop and play with him. Where can Harry find a friend who is as slow as he is? Find out what happens when Harry meets his match. This great book reminds us that there is always a perfect friend for everyone. The watercolor and ink illustrations are nice and bold.

Karen Baicker (2003) , under 40 pages
Illustrated by Ken Wilson-Max
Audience: Babies, Toddlers, Preschool
Category: African-American, Books & Babies, Read Aloud

A toddler's world is full of big people who can do everything. Join a little girl who copies her family members as they perform daily activities. Her persistence and the support of loved ones allows her to be successful at everything she attempts, such as pouring juice and holding a book. Bold, colorful illustations move the story along, as do the toddler's own words, "I can do it too!"
