On Also an Animal (Lynn Parrish Sutton, Melissa Babcock Saylor):
Midwest Book Review: “Engagingly written … joyful, entertaining, and unique animal ode to the love between a parent and child …”
On Birdhouse (Clover Robin):
Publishers Weekly: "This interactive birdhouse-shaped board book introduces seven avian varieties. In textural art, Robin shows the birds in flight, finding food, and building nests, and she describes each bird’s habitat in the wild: “Swallows nest in hollows, but they are unable to make their own.” Flaps lift to show the birds making use of human-made or organic dwellings. Robin provides additional bird facts and observations about their diets, physical features, and behaviors: “A group of ducks in the water is called a raft.” A fun, fact-filled bird primer."
On What a Wonderful Word (Nicola Edwards, Luisa Uribe):
Publishers Weekly: “With soft-spoken humor, Edwards conveys how relatable experiences connect human beings across languages and cultures while shedding light on the whimsy (“playfully quaint or fanciful behavior or humor”) and complexity of evolving language.”
