Kitten’s Spring Book Review

Spring and warmer weather has finally arrived which means we are spending more time outdoors. Of course there are also lots of rainy days during Springtime, and on those rainy days we love catching up on the latest books. We recently came across Kitten’s Spring by Eugenie Fernandes and it’s a great read for this time of year.

Kitten’s Spring is about Spring arriving on a Farm from a calico kitten’s perspective. It’s cute and simple with absolutely adorable illustrations that kids will love. My 5 year old son really enjoyed me reading this out loud to him. With only a few words per page this is an excellent choice for toddlers and preschoolers. Overall, this book is a fun and educational way to celebrate the arrival of Spring!

Good Night Little Bunny Book Review

Good Night, Little Bunny by Jane Yolen is a touch and feel bedtime story book. It is a sturdy board book which makes it perfect for babies 6 months and up through preschool age children. The story follows Little Bunny as he gets ready for bed. Little ones will love following Little Bunny’s routine and touching the textures of all the objects in the book.

Overall this is a very sweet bedtime story with lovely vibrant illustrations by Sam Williams sure to please for years to come. It’s also a great read just in time for the Easter holiday as it features an adorable white bunny that no child can resist!

If your child likes Jane Yolen’s other books then you should definitely give this one a try as well.
