📚 THEY SAY BLUE -Jillian Tamaki
☕️☕️☕️☕️ 4.0 #KristiCocoas This beautiful book woke up my childhood's inner eye and I don't think I can explain it more clear than that, haha! Love the colors and the ideas. Love the exploration and the quiet emotions. #kidlit #recommended 📚 BALONEY (HENRY P.) -Jon Scieszka, Illust Lane Smith
☕️☕️☕️ 3.0 #KristiCocoas Tall tales and alien languages (kinda). A fun story if you're into space or decoding or elaborate disbelieveable storytelling! This is all about context clues! #kidlit #readingrecommendations 📚 A STORY ABOUT AFIYA -James Berry, Illust Anna Cunha
☕️☕️☕️ 3.5 #KristiCocoas A stunningly beautiful book. Poetic and it kind of sticks with you *ba-dum-cha*! (You'll get it once you read the book). I do feel like it's more worthy of a secondary education classroom lesson on metaphors but still earns it's spot as a children's picture book. #kidlit #readingrecommendations 📚 OUTSIDE IN -Deborah Underwood, Illust Cindy Derby
☕️☕️☕️ 3.5 #KristiCocoas All I wanted when I was a kid was to go outside. I loved exploring. This book reminded me how out of touch I have become with nature and made me grateful for the instances when I do remember. Beautiful illustrations! ❤️ #kidlit #readingrecommendations Activity: GO OUTSIDE! Leave the phone at home. I know it's tempting to say "I just wanna take photos of my kids!" but just don't. Go outside and find colors and shapes and smells and sounds and textures. And when you get back inside, have your littles draw a picture of their favorite thing they experienced and have them hang it up in their room to keep a little bit of that outside in. 📚 ANIMALS SHOULD DEFINITELY *NOT* WEAR CLOTHING -Judi Barrett, Illust Ron Barrett
☕️☕️☕️☕️ 4.5 #KristiCocoas I maybe enjoyed this cute book more than I should have. It is a quick, easy read for bedtimes but also so enjoyable and made me lol. Simple. Charming. Funny. #kidlit #readingrecommendations |
