PreS The accomplishments of two young siblings are presented, from morning to night. Short, declarative sentences announce, "I can sleep in my bed," "I can eat with my fork and spoon," "I can try different foods." At preschool, the twins "read," paint, and demonstrate social skills such as sharing. At the end of the day they put on their pajamas and kiss their family good night. The bright, cheery digital collages have an eye-catching variety of textures and patterns. An exuberant celebration of three-year-old milestones.-"Linda Ludke, London Public Library, Ontario, Canada" Copyright 2010 Media Source Inc.
Following a brother and a sister through their day, Carluccio's simple text notes the kids' accomplishments, from eating with a fork and spoon to using the potty. Her painterly collages are warm and friendly, beautifully textured and inviting. The book provides a perfect chance to explore the particular territory of three-year-olds and bolster their sense of independence.
