Picture Book Recommendations:
a. Rattlesnake Rules
Author: Conrad J. Storad Illustrator: Nathaniel P. Jensen
If these babies shake their rattles, you’d better pay attention! This book helps children learn about rattlesnakes. Much maligned primarily because they are too often misunderstood, rattlesnakes have gotten a bad rap over the years. Conrad J. Storad, an award-winning author of more than 30 science and nature books for young readers, wants to do something about that. In his just released book, Rattlesnake Rules, Conrad demystifies the world of rattlesnakes and introduces children to such topics as who, when, and what rattlesnakes eat. He shows readers why rattlesnakes have rattles and what it means if you hear one. You will learn how the snakes’ forked tongues help them survive. The delightful and colorful illustrations of Nathaniel P. Jensen help bring the story alive.
b. My Bonus Mom! Taking the Step Out of Stepmom
Author: Tami Butcher Illustrator: Feras Nouf
Who is this woman? Is she going to replace mommy? Will daddy love her more than me? What if she doesn't like going to the zoo? When children of divorced or widowed parents first hear of their father's intention to remarry, they not only have to work through their own fears and feelings of uncertainty, they have to battle with century-old fairytales and modern movies that depict stepmothers as evil. However, Tami Butcher's first book in a series of books that address family matters in child-friendly rhyme opens the doors to their hearts and minds, by showing kids the positive possibilities of gaining a "bonus mom."
