Just got some great new picture books in. "Madison and the Two Wheeler" by Dr. Vanita Braver finds Madison wanting to try out her bike without training wheels. But a fall frightens her and she is reluctant to climb back onto that bike. When she sees brave baby birds trying to fly, she decides if they can do it, so can she. Lois Ehlert's "Oodles of Animals" has lovely rhyming test and beautiful, colorful paper collages. "Don't Worry, Bear" by Greg Foley has Bear looking out for his caterpillar friend all winter but when spring comes, caterpillar has disappeared. "Amelia Makes a Movie" by David Milgrim will have you shouting,"I can do this!" When Mom and Dad are too busy to play, Amelia and her brother write a movie script, paint the scenery and make the costumes. The two siblings cooperate and create a fabulous movie for their family to enjoy. "Come Fly With Me" by Satomi Ichikawa tells the story of Woggy the stuffed dog and Cosmos the wooden airplane. Both want a flying adventure but get a little more than they had bargained for. "Twenty-six Princesses" by Dave Horowitz has an alphabet of princesses, complete with rhyming text and charming illustrations.
