so-so#HollyJollyReading Day 4: Adam has moved from a presumably tropical country with lots of animals to a new city filled with skyscrapers and snow. Eventually, he finds friends who helped him build, not a #snowman, but a menagerie of animals that is reminiscent of home. Truth be told, I am a little on the fence with this one, as I found it somewhat preachy and didactic. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-cb8
Great illustrations that are perfect for very young kids.
pickReview: The Adventures of Beekle by Dan Santat, 2014, is a Caldecott Award winner about an imaginary friend and his journey to find a child of his own.
Blurb: This story along with beautiful illustrations tells a very touching story about friendship, imagination, and the courage to find one's place in the world.

pickThis book, a Caldecott Medal winner, is about an imaginary friend and his adventure looking for his friend in the real world like all the other imaginary friends.
I would use this book in my future classroom, because at a young age most students have their own imaginary friends. It is a very creative book and would be liked among a classroom of children.
Neither of them had made a friend before. But... after a little while they realized they were perfect together.
so-soThis book, a Caldecott Honor book, is about a lonely guy talking to another guy to ultimately become friends.
