Puddle Jumping: A Book About Bravery

by Emma Quay, Anna Walker (Illustrator)

Panda, Sheep, and Owl may be different, but that's what makes playing together so much fun. Whether they're pretending to be jellyfish (blob blob blob), creating ice-cream masterpieces, bravely confronting puddles, or snuggling up to sleep, these three best friends know just how to make everyday things extraordinary.

With adorably stylish illustrations and gently repetitive, sweet-as-can-be stories, each book in the Hello, Friends! series addresses a different preschool concept, like sharing, imagination, bravery, and bedtime. So gather up all four and prepare to have your socks charmed off!

I don't normally review little kids' books, but I'd like to start including the ones I truly love. This series of board books is adorable, and I think their simple and sweet approach to concepts like bravery and sharing will be welcomed by parents of toddlers.

This book is so cute. I love it when a book for toddlers can have a surprise ending even for an adult. Abby and I both loved this book and it made us laugh.

Or a book about peer pressure? Depends on how you want to look at it.
