I highly recommend the book, The Wild Robot by Peter Brown. If you enjoy books that are adventurous, filled with excitement, and has interesting characters then this is the book for you! Read about a robot that finds herself on a remote island with no understanding of how she got there or why. This book is about discovery, friendship, and perseverance. You will love it!

I recommend this book because it’s sort of funny and it makes me happy. It has a lot of rhyming  and I think that makes it fun to read. It’s silly  for example when the  main character was in a car on a train in a boat. I love this book and I think you should read it!

If you like baking, magic, and suspense, you should read a Dash of Trouble by Anna Meriano.  It’s about a girl who finds that her family is keeping secrets.  And when she does her own spell, it ends up with disastrous results.

CHAPTER 1

Scaredy Squirrel never leaves his nut tree.

green Martians

sharks

So he's perfectly happy to stay right where he is.

Advantages of never leaving the nut tree:

- great view

- plenty of nuts

- safe place

- no

Disadvantages of never leaving the nut tree:

- same old nuts

- same old place

In Scaredy Squirrel's nut tree, every day is the same. Everything is predictable. All is under control.

Toronto Star

PreS-Gr 3-Melanie Watt's picture book (Kids Can Press, 2006) comes to life in this humorous production about taking risks. After a cute introduction encouraging viewers to wash their hands, David de Vries's announcer-style voice brings the book pages to life. Simple animation of Watt's charcoal-outlined cartoon-like illustrations accompanied by text from the book depicts Scaredy Squirrel and his various fears-germs, killer bees, sharks, Martians, and more-as he stays safely hidden in his tree. Amusing music adds to the fun of the story as the drama unfolds and Scaredy Squirrel is finally forced to leave his tree-only to discover something very special about himself in the process. Optional features include a read-along version, subtitles, and an interview with the author, which even young viewers will enjoy thanks to the many cartoons interspersed within the interview. The teacher's guide offers suggestions for utilizing the DVD in the classroom with activities for both pre- and post-viewing. Viewers will be left wanting more episodes of Scaredy Squirrel and his funny antics, so have the other books in the series available for them to read.-Cathie Bashaw Morton, Millbrook Central School District, NY
