2001 Award
(by Lucy Cousins, Candlewick $9.99 Score:
) Not all Maisy books are equal—in fact, we're sorry to say that a few of her lift-the-flap books have some pretty sharp corners. We liked the simplicity of this getting-ready-for-bed book, which includes going to the potty, and the humor of Maisy's Pool. 2 & up. Age: Toddlers. Award Year: 2001.
2001 Awards
(by Rosemary Wells, Viking $9.99 Score:
) Kids will see the humor of Max's delay tactics. Ruby is right there making all the necessary adjustments. If we could all be as calm as Ruby. 2 & up. Age: Toddlers,Preschool. Award Year: 2001.
2001 Awards
(by Carole L. Schaefer/illus. by Vanessa Cabban, Candlewick $15.99 Score:

2001 Awards
(by Joanna Cole/illus. by Maxie Chambliss, HarperCollins $5.95 Score:
) If you're introducing the concept of potty training, you can make a gender-specific choice with either version of this little book that makes the transition from diapers to potty sound "do-able"—let's hope! We think this is more age appropriate than the new "What to Expect" for Kids book on the same subject. 2 & up. Age: Toddlers,Preschool. Award Year: 2001.

2001 Award
(by H.M. Ehrlich/illus. by Emily Bolam, Houghton Mifflin $15 Score:

2001 Award
(by Cyndy Szekeres, Simon & Schuster $6.99 Score:
