This book has the most beautiful illustrations!
It's about a little girl and her fascination
with whales. She hears them calling her name,
even though her gruff uncle thinks she should
spend her time on more practical pursuits.
This is a West African tale about, well,
mosquitoes! I really like this one on tape also,
particularly because of the accent of the person
who reads it...it adds an authenticity to the
story.
This one's really different....I just LOVE it! A
little boy lives next door to an old folk's
home, & has special relationships with the
people there. When one of those special people
"lost her memory," Wilfrid goes on a search for
it...by asking all the people at the home what
"memory" is...The answers are so touching! This
is just a very heartwarming story with a neat
message.
A
truly unique book. No words, only
pictures...each page zooming out a little more
to reveal more details...you see things that you
couldn't imagine were in each picture!
