James enjoyed this easy reader about dogs and their funny activities. He really liked the big dog party up in the treetops at the end of the story.
The New Tricks I Can Do! by Dr. Seuss/Robert Lopshire
James also brought in this sequel to Put Me in the Zoo about a very talented "bear" who can change his spots. In this book, the creature has to find a new job now that the circus has closed. Find out where he ends up!
Naomi's Tree by Joy Kogawa (illustrated by Ruth Ohi)
Bookmarks went to the "birthday" party for a new book, Naomi's Tree, and got to talk to the author and the illustrator. Naomi's Tree is about a little Japanese-Canadian girl who has a lovely tree in her backyard. During the Second World War, her family has to move and leave the tree behind. But when she returns to her old home, many years later, the tree is still there. This beautiful picture book celebrates the magic of friendship and peace.
