Even though National Library Week is almost over, Even though National Library Week is almost over, it’s not too late to celebrate because April is also School Library Month. I want to share a book that celebrates the magic of a reader falling in love with books thanks to a little help from a school librarian.⁣
⁣
The new school library is finally open. Everyone in Mr. Tiffin’s class is excited...everyone except Jake. He is a slow and careful reader and often feels left behind on library day. When the new librarian notices that Jake shows more interest in the wooden bookshelves than the books, Librarian Beck introduces Jake to a book about woodworking. Suddenly, Jake has something he wants to read and checks it out over and over again.⁣
⁣
But, when Librarian Beck announces that books must be returned for the summer, Jake realizes he isn’t ready to say goodbye to the book. As he reads about woodworking again, he has the perfect gift idea for the librarian who changed his entire outlook on books and reading. And it’s one that will keep kids reading all summer long.⁣

Do you have any little free libraries in your area or at your school? ⁣

Roland lives a quiet life doing the things he love Roland lives a quiet life doing the things he loves, but it can get lonely. While walking in the forest, he finds a friend. Milton might only be a pinecone, but to Roland, he’s the perfect companion for drawing, listening to music, and drinking tea. Suddenly, life isn’t so lonely.⁣
⁣
Not long after, Roland sees posters all over the forest. Someone is looking for their lost pinecone. That’s when he realizes that his new best friend already belongs to someone else. Will losing his new best friend send Roland back to his lonely days, or will this open the door for a new friendship to blossom?⁣

This beautifully illustrated book shares an important message about friends, both real and imaginary. Readers will root for Roland as he endures loneliness, joy, sadness, compassion, empathy, and more. Swipe to take a peek inside this book.⁣

Thank you to @peachtreepublishing for sharing this book with my family! My kids had so much fun creating a few new forest friends that were inspired by Milton. Check out my stories to see their creations.⁣

Be Kind⁣ ⁣ We hear, read, and say those words Be Kind⁣
⁣
We hear, read, and say those words all the time, but what does it really mean to be kind? Do our kids really get it? When our words and actions aren’t getting the message across clearly, books can help.⁣
⁣
🪁 Kindness is a Kite String uses rhyming text, similes, and metaphors to show how one small act of kindness can start a ripple effect that quickly spreads through a community. “Kindness is contagious. Once you catch it...pass it on!” ⁣
⁣
I love that this book includes simple ways that kids can show kindness in their everyday lives. The discussion tips that you can use before, during, and after the story are also an added bonus.

A Poem in Your Pocket is a great story to share as A Poem in Your Pocket is a great story to share as you kick-off National Poetry Month! ⁣
⁣
When Mr. Tiffin announces that an author will visit the class for Poem in Your Pocket Day, the kids are excited. Since Elinor always gets the best grades, everyone is sure she will have the best poem to share. ⁣
⁣
All through April, the students read poetry books and learn poems by heart. Mr. Tiffin introduces similes and metaphors along with haikus and concrete poems. When it’s time to start writing poems, everyone dives write in....everyone except Elinor. The pressure to write the perfect poem keeps her from writing anything at all. ⁣
⁣
Can Elinor let go of perfection and start getting creative? Or will she be the only student without a poem to share when the author finally arrives?⁣

What are some of your favorite poetry books for kids?⁣
