📚 THE MOON OVER STAR -Dianna Hutts Aston, Illust. Jerry Pinkney
☕️☕️☕️ 3.5 #KristiCocoas The day of the moon-landing as seen through a dreaming country girl. It's rich and vivid. I felt the emotion of that day through 8yo Mae's eyes. Lovely read! #kidlit #recommendedreading

📚 RETURN OF THE LIBRARY DRAGON -Carmen Agra Deedy, Illust Michael P. White
☕️☕️☕️ 3.0 #KristiCocoas The details for the adult are my favorite (but my shorty picked up on some of the jokes too and loved it) and my author heart loves championing physical books. I'd recommend reading LIBRARY DRAGON before this one though as I'm not sure it can stand on its own. #kidlit #recommendedreading 📚 BEDTIME BONNET -Nancy Redd, Illust Nneka Myers
☕️☕️☕️ 3.5 #KristiCocoas You need to read it once. Especially if you're not Black. It will be a staple in my home however, with many rereads. A cute, simple, kid-friendly way to add some understanding to a cultural thing. #kidlit #recommendedreading 📚 THE LEGEND OF ROCK PAPER SCISSORS -Drew Daywalt, Illust Adam Rex
☕️☕️☕️☕️ 4.0 #KristiCocoas An epic struggle between good and evil... or rather, between rock, paper, and scissors. Funny. Loved all the word choice -must be read with feeling and voices! #kidlit #recommendedreading 📚 A SICK DAY FOR AMOS MCGEE -Philip C. Stead, Illust Erin E. Stead
☕️☕️☕️☕️ 4.0 #KristiCocoas Cute cute cute. Kindness repaid and some subtle illustration humor mixed with a very relateable sick day. I am feeling this book today. #kidlit #recommendedreading 📚 FLIGHT FOR FREEDOM -THE WETZEL FAMILY'S DARING ESCAPE FROM EAST GERMANY -Kristen Fulton, Illust Torben Kuhlmann
☕️☕️☕️☕️ 4.0 #KristiCocoas A complicated story I've never heard, condensed and told through a child's eyes in this lovely picture book. NF is not usually my taste (I like the silly and absurd or identity driven moral), this book kept me reading even into the back matter. I'm so glad to have read it! #kidlit #recommendedreading |
