Library Find: The Quiet Book

The Quiet Book by
Deborah Underwood& illustrated by Reynata Liwska is one of the the prettiest books for young readers I've seen in a while. We picked up The Christmas Quiet Book over Christmas (also by Deborah Underwood) and loved it just as much. The story is simply that of different kinds of being quiet: quiet while reading, or listening to music, or being curious.
The cute little animals, the whimsical accessories in their homes (really, how sweet is that cradle?) and the wee woodland elements (squee! Mushrooms!) make it fun to look at all the way through.
The only part that I'm not 100% happy about is the sad little animals in some of them- being quiet because they were "naughty" for example. It makes my very emotional youngster super worried for them as she doesn't like seeing anyone be sad.

Library find: Fox by Kate Banks

Today at the library we found this beautiful book called Fox by Kate Banks& Little Berry fell right away in love with it. Foxes have been THE Animal of fascination for several months now for her& this is one of the loveliest we've found in Children's Fiction about foxes.
The story follows a newborn fox (who is even shown nursing! :) as he grows up&eventually leaves his den&mama&papa fox behind. Most children love to ask for things they can't have& this fox is no different., but the beautiful illustrations that look like oil paintings-and insight into fox-ness is sweet. It shows them gathering fruit&berries, burying them, running through the forest, and playing in the river.
Overall, it was a lovely find& I wish I had better pics but we were so busy enjoying it I forgot to snap one until we were leaving.
Next time you're at your local library you should pick it up or request it if your littles are into foxes. Which leads me to my question:

What are your littles into these days?
