| 9781575421803 | Tails Are Not For Pulling (Board Book) (Best Behavior Series) | Verdick, Elizabeth | If pets could talk, what would they say? Maybe Fur is for petting, backs are for scratching, noses are for nuzzling and tails are not for pulling! Toddlers and pets belong together as long as toddlers don t chase, grab, squeeze, yank, and tease. In simple words and delightful illustrations, this book teaches the basics of kindness to animals: careful handling, awareness, safety, and respect. It also includes helpful tips for parents and caregivers.School Library JournalPreS-This board book can be used to teach preschoolers the proper way to interact with pets. They will learn that it's OK to scratch, nuzzle, or cuddle an animal, but not to squeeze, tease, or pull tails. The book also advises them to watch and listen for warning signals when an animal might be saying, "Hands off." The text is brief and to the point. The broad illustrations use a thick black outline to create characters that are friendly and expressive. Two concluding pages offer further tips for caregivers on how to share the book and encourage children to treat animals kindly.-Martha Topol, Traverse Area District Library, Traverse City, MI Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information. | Free Spirit Publishing |

| 9780399234613 | The Hat | Jan Brett | A Publishers Weekly #1 bestseller, Jan Brett's heartwarming story of Hedgie the hedgehog's misadventures in the snow has become a family favorite. When Lisa's woolen stocking flies off the closeline, Hedgie can't resist poking his nose in. He tries to pull it out, but the stocking is stuck on his prickles. At first the other animals laugh at the sight of him, but when they realize they might like something to keep their heads dry and ears warm, too, even more silliness ensues. Like its companion The Mitten, The Hat is now available as a wonderful board book to share with young children. "Brett's signature art introduces animal characters as endearing and expressive as those who congregated in her earlier book's expandable white mitten." —Publishers Weekly "A clever and appealing picture book. . . . The pictures, story, and subject matter make this a natural for sharing aloud." —School Library Journal | G.P. Putnam's Sons Books for Young Readers |
