 Hooray for fish by Lucy Cousins This book is packed with energetic, colorful fantastic fishes. I love turning the pages to study all the free-flowing artwork. The simple rhyming text is light and fun, and the illustrations are so spunky. |
 Goodnight Lulu by Paulette Bogan This is the sweetest bedtime book I've yet to read. I want to read this to my (yet unborn) children, it is so funny and good. The pictures are a riot. Paulette Bogan is one talented lady. |
 counting kisses by Karen Katz Katz's nice big board book has lots of sweet pictures with counting, i.e. ten baby toes. I love Karen Katz's work in general. She uses such great colors and patterns, and she captures emotions so beautifully. |

 You're Different and That's Super Written by Carson Kressley Illustrated by Jared Lee When a book make you smile with every turn of the page, you know it's a keeper. This is one of my personal library favorites, a funny and quirky story about a unicorn who learns to love himself. |
 FROGGY FABLE by John Lechner A frog too set in his ways learns that change happens and has to adapt. With funny illustrations of the frog's reactions to life, this is a story with heart. |

 Jellybeans by Sylvia Van Ommen This is a quiet existential conversation between two friends. With simple but emotional line drawings, it explores life, death, and love. |
 The Giver Written by Lois Lowry I couldn't put this novel down till I had finished. The story sucks you in and spits you out, like the main character, a changed individual. |
