Oliver Bunny has high hopes of winning this year's strawberry contest. But when he enters, the bigger bunnies just laugh at him. "Little bunnies grow little berries," they taunt. Oliver is not to be discouraged, however. With his mother's encouragement, he plants his strawberry patch far away from the big bunnies' garden and quickly learns to use an extra dose of creativity to make up for his puny size. But what's a little bunny to do when berry-hungry bears arrive? While all the other bunnies flee, Oliver grabs his watering can, throws in some pebbles, and shakes the can. "Rattlesnake!" the bears yell and run away. Oliver saves his strawberries, wins the contest, and proves that size isn't important--except when it's how big a piece of strawberry pie you want! An encouraging and empowering story, this adorable, impossible-to-resist picture book will delight parents and children alike.

Viking Books for Young Readers

Mia wants a dog more than anything. But according to her mom, there is just NO ROOM in their very small apartment. Then one day, when she and her grandma are visiting a friend who is giving away puppies, Mia falls in love with a small spotted pup who crawls into her lap. She knows she just has to convince her mom to let her keep him! With help from Grandma --- and some of her pet-owning friends --- can Mia show her mom how much room there really is in their apartment? In this charming picture book from Elizabeth Suneby and Laurel Molk, an I-want-a-dog story meets the Yiddish folk tale about how things could always be worse --- to comic effect! With a narrative and illustrations that are action-packed, this is a terrific read-aloud. The timely messages about the importance of gratitude for what one has, the need for generosity and the inclusion of others --- ?there's always room for one more? --- resonate. This book makes a wonderful social studies resource for discussions about families and communities, with an intergenerational storyline full of endearing characters --- Mia, her mother and her grandmother live in the same apartment building, along with a diverse cast of neighbors. It also works for character education lessons on kindness, perseverance and initiative.
