Picture
In the sky tonight, you can see stars.  Many of these stars make a picture in the sky, a constellation.  You can look up at the stars and imagine, create and play along with the constellations.  Starry Skies is a fun introduction to the night sky.  Using imagination and creative play to introduce some of the fun constellations that are easy to see in the night sky such as Leo, Ursa Major and Minor, Orion and Gemini,  Starry Skies opens up the world of astronomy to little eyes.  After reading to my little one, he wanted to go out and see his friends in the sky.  Also, a great way to incorporate outdoor learning and make the outdoors at night inviting instead of scary.

Mr. Giraffe is trying to take a morning drive, but soon after he leaves in his one purple car, he is joined by an increasing amount of vehicles.  On his way around town, Mr. Giraffe will see limousines, school buses, sports cars and fire engines that culminate in a traffic jam.  

Perfect for toddlers who are learning to count and enjoy vehicles, this search and find book is the perfect way to encourage learning. With numbers, colors, animals, and hidden objects, there is more than one way to enjoy this book.  My son loved pointing out the different vehicles as well as the animals.  With numerous things to find on each page, this book will be a hit for a while.   The illustrations are bright and simple with friendly animal faces that kids enjoy.  Perfect for children ages 1-5.

Scientist, Scientist, Who Do You See?

Using the classic structure of Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?  by Bill Martin Jr., Chris Ferrie has created a whole new experience for young scientists.  Featuring scientist from past and present, each scientist looks to a picture of another scientist which highlights their notable work such as Grace Hopper making a computer enquiry or George Carver studying botany. 

The scientists presented in the story are from all over the world and show both genders equally as well as many ethnicities, creating a wonderful platform for children allowing them to see that anyone can be a scientist.  This fact is promoted on the last page, where a diverse group of children are looking back at the scientists.  The familiar rhythm of the story along with fun pictures generates a wonderful new way to introduce scientists to young children.  Having read this with my two year old as well as several school groups, I believe this book is best enjoyed by ages 2-8.
