Elayne Crain is a proud writer of childish (and often laughable) things. She loves walks in the woods with her sons and partner, lively karaoke, and wildlife—especially the stacked-in-a-trench-coat sort.

I knew (from the creators behind it) that Wally Mammoth: The Sled Race was going to be really thoughtful and fun, but I have to say, I enjoyed this picture book EVEN MORE than I expected.

Zip Zap Wickety Wack by Matthew Diffee
Rate this book
Clear rating
I love a great read-aloud, so a title like "Zip Zap Wickety Wack" is, naturally, irresistible to me. But, don't let the subtitle (A Story About Sharing--which it is; and we perpetually need books about, of course!) scare you off from picking up this ...more

Rot wants nothing more than to (finally) scare the snot out of, well, Snot. Unfortunately, Rot is terrible at being sneaky; so much so, that he's pretty much the Rot-posite of a spy. This funny book, part of the Tater Tales series, is packed with pun ...more

Spencer actually finds it ridiculously easy to make (many) friends upon moving to a new town. The catch? They're plants (literally). I enjoyed the punny humor in this story, as well as the theme of how sometimes finding your tribe comes from followin ...more

A fun, sweet ride of a story, replete with bike puns, anti-allergy spells, and the importance of family. The author-illustrator truly made her own magic with this one.

If you like a book that dishes out wordplay (as I do), this book--and its cheery kitchen cut-ups-are more than happy to be of service.
