Everything I Need to Know I Learned From a Star Wars
By Geof Smith
Illustrated by Alan Batson, Ethen Beavers, Ron Cohee, Chris Kennett, Heather Martinez, Caleb Meurer, Micky Rose and Patrick Spaziante
Golden Books, 2016. Picture Book.

In honor of Star Wars Day I thought it would be appropriate to highlight a new Star Wars picture book just added to our collection. Taking iconic scenes from the films (as shown below), life lessons are taught-- being your own hero, surrounding yourself with good friends, and no matter what, the Force will be with you always, so hang in there. A must for all Star Wars fans, young and old.

Review: The House with Nobody in It

By
  The House with Nobody in It By Jon Klassen Somerville, Massachusetts: Candlewick Press, 2026. Board Book.  The House with Nobody in It may very well be your child's first ghost story. The simple story begins with the narrator explaining to readers that this house used to have someone in it, but there is now nobody there. Toddlers and preschoolers will love contradicting this statement as they peek through the house that the board book forms, as the ghost is clearly visible throughout the story.  This unique and imaginative board book is the perfect thing to read during Halloween season! The book itself plays into the experience, with cutouts and clever turns that make it especially interactive. The illustrations are superb, simple but well crafted, adding to the story's theme as a whole. This will likely be a book that gets many repeat reads!
