Books We Shared<\/h1>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Whenever I read\u00a0Duck! Rabbit!<\/a>\u00a0by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and illustrated by Tom Lichtenheld, I like to stage an argument with a duck puppet. The duck is convinced that we are looking at a member of his species while I appeal to the kids to take MY side that no, it’s a rabbit! It makes for lots of laughs and some food for thought about the fact that we all see the world a little differently.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Tickle Monster<\/a>\u00a0by Edouard Manceau also has some great visual things going on with it, and is a fun book to teach the five senses. You tell the monster: “If I tickle your nose, you can’t smell me! If I tickle your ears, you can’t hear me!” And every time you tickle a part of the monster’s body, it disappears and becomes something else. His horns become a moon, his arms and legs become trees. It’s a neat visual trick that the illustrations achieve!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Yummy Yucky by Leslie Patricelli is a baby’s exploration of tastes and flavors. It’s great for teaching senses and also opposites. It’s also just fun to talk about all the gross things that the baby tries. Alas, Yummy Yucky is not currently available for checkout (I was reading a personal copy) but we have many other cute books of hers<\/a> here at the library.<\/p>\n
