October Bookshelf Recommendation:

Clifford’s Opposites (one of eight books in a series)
By Norman Bridwell
Published by Scholastic
Age range: 6 months – 3 years

 

“Clifford is a favorite character for the young and young at heart! This little board book is the perfect size for toddlers to carry around, and the scalloped edges of the book make turning pages an easy task, even for babies. This series of books helps to reinforce basic concepts that little ones are learning—animal sounds, bedtime and bath-time routines and opposites. The simple text and colorful illustrations capture the attention of children and make it a fun and easy book to share with little ones—and often preschoolers enjoy “reading” these books to themselves! This series also comes in a bilingual format.”
– Janice Dobbs
