\u201cClick, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type\u201d is a hilarious, tongue-in-cheek story about a scrappy crew of literate cows that go on strike.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the cows at Farmer Brown\u2019s farm discover a typewriter one day, they put it to good use and type a letter asking the farmer for electric blankets to keep them warm in the chilly barn. Farmer Brown isn\u2019t impressed by their demands (or newfound typing skills). So he responds with a firm \u201cno.\u201d This silly title is a cute early lesson in persuasive letter writing. And the animated audio format makes it perfect for a read-aloud.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Don’t Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late!<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

By: Mo Willems <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the brilliant creator behind “Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus” and many other laugh-out-loud titles in this lesson-laden series comes “Don’t Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late.” This time, as the bus driver gets ready for bed he begs young readers NOT to let the pigeon stay up. Of course the pigeon tries to talk his way into getting his way (“I hear there’s a good show about birds on TV tonight,” he says). His efforts mirror the antics little ones use to try to get out of bedtime, until he finally falls asleep.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Written by: Drew Daywalt <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this hilarious, colorful #1 New York Times<\/em> bestseller, Duncan is getting ready to color, but when he opens his crayon box, the crayons are gone! Instead he finds only written\u00a0 letters saying they’ve had enough and quit. Blue crayon needs a break from coloring water. Black crayon is tired of just outlining. And Orange and Yellow are no longer speaking (they each think they’re the true color of the sun). Can Duncan appease the crayons and get them back to doing what they do best?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Would you think twice? This book about a little girl’s conversation with an ant persuades kids of the importance of showing caring and kindness to creatures big and small.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under a Pig Tree<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Written by Margie Palatini <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Illustrated by: Chuck Groenink <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The author of “Under a Pig Tree” has written a clear, no-nonsense history of figs, but the publisher is convinced she meant pigs. What results is a hilarious, illustrated history of pigs, filled with absurd “facts” (\u201cThere is nothing better than enjoying a cup of tea or glass of milk with one of those famous Pig Newtons\u201d). With sticky notes from the publisher and\u00a0 angry scribbles from the author, this book playfully shows the potentially big consequences of small mistakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
