This has always been my favorite book. It taught me to share with others and not take too much from someone, even if they allow you to have it. Sharing is such a big thing in kindergarten so I think this would be a really great book for younger readers

I loved this book growing up and I think it‘s really special. The illustrations within the book are amazing and I think children notice those the most, especially younger ones who haven‘t fully grasped how to read yet

This book holds a special place in my heart and I‘ll read it to all of my future classes. It shows that each one of us matters, no matter where we are in life and that is the most important thing a book can teach

I absolutely love this book, it really teaches children that although we all might not look alike, we still shine bright and are loved. Every child needs to know that they‘re loved by someone. 🤍

This book was so heart wrenching to read for me, it touched on so many horrible things that occurred during World War II but also helped bring to life about what so many innocent people went through during that time. It tells a really horrible but captivating story that I think young adults would enjoy reading.

“We live together, or we die together.“

This book has some words in spanish so I think it could introduce students some important words in a different language and open student's minds to a different culture. It doesn't have a lot of dialogue but it still brings a really powerful message.

This is a really great book to teach students what kind of horrible things slaves went through back then and captures just how much determination, hard work, and empathy Harriet Tubman had for everyone. It shows how selfless she was and teaches students what it looks like to be an amazing human and put others before yourself.

This book not only teaches children about the life cycle of a butterfly and what happens during its life but also what it means to be patient. The illustrations are really cool in the book and I think children would appreciate it.

I think this is a great book for students to learn about the differences that Rosa Parks made in the past and how much of an influence she had on the world. The illustrations were super realistic and warm toned so it really made certain colors pop.

I love that this book was also written by her kids, it makes it even more special and kids can relate to it since other kids were involved in creating it

This book not only teaches children about how to grow a garden but also what it means to be patient, hardworking, and determined. Real important life lessons are spread throughout this book that can be overlooked so I think this is a great boo =k to have children read or have read to them.

This book is about a desert flower that blooms for only one night a year as the sun sets over the Sonoran desert in Arizona and wildlife gather to witness the special annual event. This book also has a lot of really cool illustrations that I think children would enjoy looking at while reading.

As I read, I kept thinking about all of the fun things that my little sister and I used to do when we played outside and explored the woods behind my house.

This is a really cute book about nature and trees but also teaches students about different kinds of trees and what they can find when they explore outside. I think it could interest a lot of kids to play outside more. The illustrations were also very realistic and used a lot of warm tone colors which I thought fit the theme of the book really well.

The illustrations in this book were amazing, I think kids would really love it. It is a book that teaches a lot about geology (rocks, weather, erosion, etc.) but its also super creative and fun. I would definitely read this to my students, I think they'd love it

I think this book would definitely be good for older students but not younger grades, it was confusing at some parts but I though it was a really informative book about glaciers but also told a cool story at the same time.

While reading this book, I kept thinking how much some of my students would love reading this book and learning new things about dinosaurs and fossils.

I know a lot of students that I've had in the past are really into dinosaurs and love learning about each of them and where they come from so I think this would be a really great read aloud option for any elementary grade. It could definitely be a fun and engaging book for students to read since they can connect and use past knowledge that they might've learned themselves.

I think this was a really informative book for a family that is expecting a child, especially if its their first child. It includes a lot of helpful and comforting tips on taking care of a newborn and things to do while the baby is starting to grow inside of the mom's stomach

I think this book would be great for 2nd-4th graders for either a read aloud or an individual read

I read this book to my second graders last semester for science and they absolutely loved it. I would definitely recommend this book, it is super engaging and fun but also teaches students a lot about different aspects of science.

I would highly recommend this book, there are some pages full of words and others with only a poem on the page so I liked how different it was. I think elementary students would really enjoy this book of poems!

Some of these poems were a little confusing for younger students but used all different kinds of poetry so I enjoyed reading some of them

I think these collection of poems taught a lot about diversity but could possibly get confusing for elementary students. I really enjoyed reading some of the poems but I think it‘s meant for older students

This book is a really great book for older children who want to learn how to cook. It‘s really colorful and I think a lot of students would enjoy it

This book is so colorful and fun, I think a lot of children would love all of the color and it teaches children about nature and adventure

These poems are a collection showing adventure and fun. It goes through all of the seasons so it is good for teaching students about seasons and what each season looks like

This was a really great collection of poems about trees that teaches children about nature and adventure

These are really great poems about friendship, diversity, and love. I really enjoyed reading some of these poems

So many children can relate to this heartwarming book, it teaches about loss, friendship, family, and hope. The book felt like it was meant for adults to read so I think this would be a great book for older elementary grades (4th and 5th). I have a feeling a lot of students can connect to this book.

These were short tales about adventures from a little boys father‘s dragon and I liked that they all connected but were separate stories, it built suspense each time I started to read a new part

This book seems eerie and dark but also really enjoyable for older children to read. It builds suspense each page and I think a lot of kids would love reading it

this book seems to have a lot of adventure which i know a lot of my 4th grade students loved so i think it would be a great book for older elementary kids to read!

“I am strong. I‘m a fearsome, fearless, mighty, magnificent mountain!”

This book doesn‘t have a lot of dialogue but it has illustrations that fill up almost every page. Each doesn‘t use a lot of color but the small amount of color pops on the pages

I really like the illustrations in the book, I think that it keeps children engaged in the reading and what‘s happening. I feel like children really love dragons and fantasy so they‘d really love this book

I really liked how the book kept the illustrations inside of a circle in the middle of each page to make the pictures pop out. The book used a lot of different bright colors and it also had a really powerful meaning that I think all children should learn about

I think this would be a great book to teach children about Noah‘s Ark. It has so many amazing illustrations that fill up most of the page and are so detailed. I really loved reading this book!

This book had a lot of small illustrations within the text (almost like a comic book) and they were super cool to look through. They flowed really well throughout the story!

I really loved how the illustrations were only in a small circle in the middle of each page and the rest was a basic color to make the illustration pop. I really loved this book and think it‘s great for children to read

I read this book so many times when I was little, I loved it! The illustrations are super detailed and cover most of the page, I loved getting to read this again!
