Well it is back to school time already. It seems (as always) that the summer has flew by. For many of my friends in other parts of the world school has been back for a few awhile but here in the Northeast this is "back to school" week. My little grand nephew will be starting preschool next week. I think he will love it. Today's book is a great book for the his age group to learn about opposites. I love it because it reminds me of books I read as a child. Simple but fun....
Double Take! A New Look at Opposites written by Susan Hood and illustrated by Jay Fleck is a cute book to introduce opposites to the younger set. While it is a simple book I love the retro illustrations. The whole book is reminiscent of a early Dr Seuss books but in a refreshing way. Great book for preschoolers to learn the basics. I especially love the elephant....he has such a sweet face.
Here is the book trailer----isn't it just so cute....
I have worked in books for most of my life, having started in the local library as a page when I was in High School. I worked for Barnes & Noble for many years first as a children's bookseller and then as a children's book buyer in their corporate office. I also worked for Scholastic books in their Book Club division. My favorite thing to do is to sit outside and read a book.
