3 ⭐ This is a book that has not aged well. Wendy lives in Boxville and everybody must wear their labeled box every day. Wendy‘s issue is that she can‘t pick a box. She doesn‘t want to be just one thing she wants to be different things at different times. One day she decides just not to wear her box. It does get her in trouble in town, but eventually, her family is like hey maybe that‘s an OK idea. I think what makes this weird is the end

LibrarianRyan when the family pack up and move to Freedom land. Instead of the idea that you can be more than one thing spreading across their community. I guess what happens in real life, but it seems weird the way it‘s written in a children‘s spot. I do like the illustrations. They feel right out of the 70s but go well with the idea of Fran Dresser, and who you know her to be in her acting and public life. While this book was an interesting read. It is not
3d
LibrarianRyan one that I would share with others as it feels the 15 years old that it is.

Mr Tiger Goes Wild | Peter Brown

I think that this was a fun and silly book about Mr. Tiger finding who he is, when he is in a world that makes him conform against what he wants to do. He finds a happy medium between being comfortable in who he is as a tiger but also learning to balance the world around him.

Mr. Tiger Goes Wild is a picture book that tells the story of Mr. Tiger and how they live in a proper world of suits and manners. One day he decided that he is over the prim and proper world and rids himself of the manners and clothes of the proper world. This is a silly story with great illustrations, and how when he runs to the forest, he feels at home in the wild.

The book would make a good lesson on being different and embracing each other‘s differences. It could also be a good lesson on sometimes feeling the need to be wild and what we should do when that happens.

This book would make an excellent lesson on being unique and embracing each other‘s differences. I think it‘d be very good to include some social devotional development with this.

3 ⭐ This book is about being yourself and how there is no one exactly like you. Each page takes a concept and talks about how you as a human match that concept whether it‘s being animal whether it‘s being water whether it‘s being unique and different. All in all the book and has to match.

Another gorgeous kid‘s book to add to my collection and a cute story about coming out of your shell and reaching your full potential.
