How are you all doing? I hope this post finds you well (or on your journey to being so) and in happy reading spirits. What have you been reading lately? Have you discovered any awesome children’s books to share?
Here are a some of my favorites from the past few weeks:
Yo Soy Muslim: A Father’s Letter to His Daughter by Mark Gonzalez (Author) & Mehrdokht Amini (Illustrator): Gonzalez wrote this book to help his children instill a sense of pride and love for their multicultural heritage. If you want a beautiful, uplifting story with amazing illustrations, this is going to be the book to pick up.
The Boy Who Dreamed of Infinity: A Tale of the Genius Ramanujan by Amy Alznauer (Author) & Daniel Miyares (Illustrator): This picture book biography is about an influential Indian mathematician. His work transformed the world of mathematics in the early 1900’s with his exploration of numbers. This book, with its wonderful artwork, will be a wonderful nonfiction read for your little ones!
Winged Wonders: Solving the Monarch Migration Mystery by Meeg Pincus (Author) & Yas Imamura (Illustrator): Another nonfiction read but this time about butterflies! This picture book helps children (and adults, myself included) understand the immense amount of collaboration required to achieve the knowledge we have about monarch butterflies!
Bunnies on the Bus by Philip Ardagh (Author) & Ben Mantle (Illustrator): This new picture book (August 4, 2020) had me rolling with laughter as these rabbits rampaged through town in a bus! The sheer amount of hidden joys in the background art made this book worth it (watch out for those little thieves) and will provide wonder on every page.
Do you have any suggestions for books I should read in the future? I would greatly enjoy hearing from you so please don’t hesitate to message me here on Tumblr, on my Instagram, or on Goodreads! Be safe and healthy out there readers. <3
