2008 Notable Children's Book


First the Egg- This is a book that illustrates how living things can grow and then change. It first includes an egg-shaped cut out that hatches into a baby chick, a tadpole turns into a frog, seed becomes part of a flower and then a caterpillar becomes a butterfly. The simple die cuts use in this book portray the transformation of living things.
This book would really provide younger readers with an interesting view on how living things can grow. It is a colorful book that would be appreciated by readers who are reluctant to learn about science.
