Carrot & Pea, An Unlikely Friendship by Morag Hood

This is an excellent friendship book for any time and could also be used to review three dimensional shapes!
Stick and Stone by Beth Ferry
Stick starts out lonely while stone starts out alone, but then Stick rescues Stone from Pinecone's taunting. Right from the beginning, there are many friendship lessons in this fun book!
Over the Ocean by Taro Gomi
This book was written in 1979 but was translated into English in 2016 so it's a "new" old book. In this fun book, a young child stands by the edge of the ocean wondering what's on the other side. Having grown up near the ocean, I used to imagine the same thing myself - actually I still do!
I hope you're all enjoying the summer wherever you are! Mondays are a lot better when you're on vacation!
Thanks for visiting today!
