📚 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

📚 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 📚 YOU WERE LOVED BEFORE YOU WERE BORN -Eve Bunting, Illust Karen Barbour ☕️☕️☕️ 3.5 #KristiCocoas *In honor of my new nephew who I finally met!* As someone who had to wait a long time to adopt, I feel this story in my bones. The older siblings might especially need a book like this too. Plus, some fun design and colors. #kidlit #readingrecommendations 📚 RETURN -Aaron Becker
☕️☕️☕️☕️ 4.5 #KristiCocoas No words but oh what a story. It's HAROLD AND THE PURPLE CRAYON for your older shorties. I was hooked. SOOO awesome for storytelling and discussion building with your shorties. And that final picture :') #kidlit #readingrecommendations 📚 WHEN GRANDMA GIVES YOU A LEMON TREE -Jamie L. B. Deenihan, illust Lorraine Rocha
☕️☕️☕️☕️ 4.5 #KristiCocoas Loved the lesson learned and the pics are sweet. My older related, was engaged the whole book, and was inspired by the end. I have a soft spot for this one <3 Bonus: It's a relatable Earth Day read! #kidlit #recommendedreading 📚 DOES KANGAROO HAVE A MOTHER, TOO? -Eric Carle
☕️☕️☕️☕️ 4.0 #KristiCocoas Cute simple story that fills my mommy-heart in a similar story formula as "Brown Bear..." all with Eric Carle’s beautiful collage artwork. Bonus page at the end has names of animal babies, parents, and groups which was fun for my olders to learn too." #kidlit #recommendedreading |
