Book 1: You know this illustrator, and maybe even this Saint. But you’ll have to get the book to realize why DePaola wanted to do a book on St. Francis. Just found it while working at the library. And when I say working, I mean volunteering.
Book 2: The cover to this book was what got me. And it was a super fun book too!
Book 3: A book with a good message for kids, but they don’t know it’s a message! It’s fun and not preachy, a balance that can sometimes be hard to strike. Very simple as well.
Book 4: Another Amy K.R. book. How can you pass by a book that says it’s not fair? I love the ending too. Clever!
So, books 77-80 are:
Francis the poor man of Assisi by Tomie DePaola
Willoughby & the Lion by Greg Foley
One by Kathryn Otoshi
and
It’s not fair by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Tom Lichtenheld.
Next up:
A book about an artist, another book by one of today’s authors, and a very sharply dressed cat.
You don’t want to miss it!
until then, read and write on!

I love your pictorial reviews 🙂 Thank you for linking to us – and I’m so glad you did as I might not have got straight here otherwise.
