I Went Walking

Request this book from the Library
A little boy goes for a walk and sees animals that are all different colors. The text becomes predictable due to the repetition of "I went walking. What did you see? I saw a _______ looking at me." This kind of text makes it possible for youngsters to memorize and "read" the book on their own using picture cues to fill in the blanks. The illustrator gives picture clues of the upcoming animal so children can guess.

From the beginning of the day to the end of the day, a crew is working with heavy machinery to build a bridge. A turtle stops the production until it gets moved aside. Can you name the different trucks? This book offers many ways to share it with children. The colorful trucks can be used for reviewing colors or counting. One could focus on the beginning, middle and end of the story. What happens at the beginning? Middle? And end? The illustrations are photos of three-dimensional scenes made from foam board, plaster and acrylic paint and look like frosting on a birthday cake!

Black and white apart make night and day. Together, they can make polka dots. Or a checkerboard! Blended together, they make gray. Simple, high contrast illustrations will be sure to grab even a baby's attention. A surprise moveable element on the last page will be sure to delight young children.

Are black and white colors? You be the judge and find out what happens when they are mixed together. This book is as fun to read as it is to look at, and it has a sweet ending!

Basic concepts like color, number, and opposites have never been as adorable... or as edible! Saxton Freymann creates tiny animals to demonstrate letters and shapes, all made of common household vegetables and fruits. The strawberry dog who gives a tiny hot-pepper flower to the potato dog may be the most endearing character in a book that is full of them.
