A Tale of Two Beasts

This is a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood. Third graders enjoyed the read-aloud available on "Storyline Online".

Wanted: the Perfect Pet

Can my review just be "Awwww..."?

This is a very cute story, about a boy who wants to find the perfect pet, and a lonely duck who just wants a friend. The illustrations are adorable, and I like that the story is told in a few chapters, so that kids who are still reading picture books can be introduced to the concept of chapters and multiple parts of a single story.

A Tale of Two Beasts by Fiona Robertson

This fun picture book is told from the point of view of two different characters: a young girl and a woodland creature. Excellent book for teaching about different perspectives.

A Tale of Two Beasts

This book is super adorable. I definitely want to try it out at a storytime soon. A girl/beast comes across a creature/animal who is obviously in distress/just hanging out. She rescues/kidnaps him, keeps him in a nice little house/terrible prison, dresses him in adorable/ridiculous clothes, and exercises/tortures him. How will things end for this thoughtful girl/thoughtless beast and her happy new pet/desperate-to-be-free captive? READ IT TO FIND OUT!
