2009 Awards
(by Salina Yoon, Scholastic $7.99 Score:
) An oblong cardboard book with thick pages that allow a color disk to slide from one side of the page to another, coloring the two objects pictures. So on the red page it slides from a strawberry to a ladybug. This is novelty book that does not include orange, brown or black. That said, this is a fun book for developing color awareness, knowing and naming and sheer fun in making something happen. 9 months & up.
Age: Infants, Toddlers. Award Year: 2009.
2001 Awards
((by Jean Marzollo/illus. by Laura Regan), HarperCollins $5.95 Score:
) Small gentle verses about how mothers care for their young accompany the painterly portraits of mother and baby koalas, lions, leopards, chimps, elephants, and seals. Also charming, Papa, Papa. 1 & up.
Age: Infants, Toddlers. Award Year: 2001.
2001 Award
(by Rebecca Emberly, Little Brown $5.95 Score:
) One of four bilingual concept books. Emery uses simple and easy to identify objects, one to a page to talk about. Designed with handsome cut-paper art, this and My Shapes, My Numbers, and My Opposites are all good choices! 2 & up.
Age: Toddlers,Preschool. Award Year: 2001.
2002 Awards
(by Robert Crowther, Candlewick $12.99 Score:
) Pull the tab on each solidly colored page and several windows open to reveal objects that are that particular color. The facing page says the color of the word. 2 and up. Age: Toddlers,Preschool. Award Year: 2002.
2006 Awards
(by Saxton Freymann, Scholastic $14.95 Score:
) Fruits and veggies have been transformed into amusing creatures that have been photographed and grouped to introduce basic concepts. There are pages devoted to counting, colors, shapes, letters and opposites. Big sturdy pages make this a treasure children will go back to again and again. 2 & up.
Age: Toddlers,Preschool. Award Year: 2006.
2004 Award
(DK $6.99 Score:
) This is one of a series of four small books that invite giggles and loud No, No, No's! Each new item is introduced with a silly question- turn the page for the correct answer. Bold graphics and cut-out windows or see-though turn pages offer upside down humor that toddlers and young preschoolers enjoy. Other titles in the series..
Are Eggs Square? ; Are Elephants Tiny?; Do Cows Bark? 18 months & up.
Age: Toddlers. Award Year: 2004.
2007 Award
(by Albert Lamn/ illus. by David McPhail , Scholastic $6.99 Score:
) Winter has come and Sam is lucky to have a fine red coat, green fuzzy mittens and a blue wooly hat. But as he loses each of his things there is a repetitive rhythm to the little story that toddlers will soon catch onto and enjoy. Too bad the red coat is not as red as red should be. It’s a short and sweet story for 2 & up. Age: Toddlers. Award Year: 2007.
