This book was so cute! I loved how The dog starts with wanting a donut and then asking for more things as time goes on. When he runs out of something, he ask for something else. He wants juice, apples, to play outside, and then he picks apples again which reminds him of apple juice and then ending with wanting a donut again. It reminds me of when I was a child, so it made me laugh! This book is good for someone who loves dogs. This is a great book to start with in the morning time to get little ones brains moving to start the day.

This picture book is cute and would be a perfect fit for kids who love ducks and rain boots! I loved how it talks about the different ways the ducks are stomping, hopping, and the different colors in their boots. I would use this in a lesson to teach children about colors as well as how to use their gross motor skills. I feel like this book is fun and a good interactive read. It gives the children movements they can try while listening to the book.

I think this book was super cute. I loved how it demonstrated ways using your left and right and would be a good book to use with a lesson that is directed towards teaching children their right from their left. While the story is alot about opposites, I love how in the end its about the fact that even if we are opposite we can still get along. I think a child who loves to be different would love this book.

I really liked this book because it is very descriptive and does an amazing job at describing climate change in Antarctica. I had my 3rd grader read it and she loved it and thought it was cool how global warming caused the ice to go from freezing to melting which made the ice turn to water. It made her ask more questions.  I would use this book for discussing global warming as well as different climates around the world.

The recess queen is a really good book. I think the point I got from it is even when someone is mean and doesn’t let you play on the playground first and tries to bully you, there is always someone in the world that could come along and stand up for everyone and change the way someone treats others. I loved how dramatic Mean Jean was and how Katie Sue did not care. Katie sue did a great job. This would be a great book to use the characters for describing antagonist and protagonist. I think anyone who loves recess would love this book.

Splat the cat is a good book, I feel because it showed how courageous he was and that when your plans don’t go as you expected you look at them again and revamp them to make it work. You never give up until you have succeeded. It made me fee like I can be successful at anything. I would use this to teach repetitiveness and analyzing. I think this book would capture the attention of someone who likes cats.

This book was very funny. The moral of the story is never to give up no matter what. It had a plot that was easy to follow. It also was a good way to not only show that you can succeed in your own goals but also to not give up when dealing with people. It made me laugh when she crushed the cookies by stepping on them and I was shocked that people bought them. You can make it through anything and this graphic novel put that well. It would be a good book for someone who might be struggling with giving up everytime they start something, it would be a good book at school for down time like when waiting for the bus.

To me History is complex and can be hard to understand and alot of times things can be left out. This book made me feel intriguing and fascinated with History. It is something that is not talked about alot. We hear about pearl harbor being bombed but I honestly have never heard about Oregon being bombed. So not only did it captivate me but it also taught me something new. I think this book would be good for students that are interested in history and the devastation it has brought through many wars and bombings.
