TW will be happy to hear that I’ve gone through the whole Cybil short list of fiction picture books. For some reason it really troubles her that I read these. Shrug.
My favorites of this last batch were Wabi Sabi and Katie Loves the Kittens. Wabi Sabi’s collages, haiku, and Japanese made it interesting. I’m not sure a picture book age child would love it, but I sure did. Katie Loves the Kittens was just amusing, poor kittens – poor dog.
Didn’t like A Visitor for Bear at all, boring (and I feel like I’ve already read it) and Sea Serpent and Me just made me nervous. I’ve never had a child afraid of the water in the bathtub or the drain but I’ve heard horror stories – who in their right mind would read this book to a pre-schooler?
