A grouchy ladybug and a polite ladybug both fly in to eat some aphids. The polite one wants to share, but the grouchy one plans on fighting for them. He’s also a coward, though, and so the grouchy ladybug goes off to find something that’s “big enough” for him to fight.
Eric Carle’s books are always fun and interesting. As the grouchy ladybug tries to find something to fight, the pages start out small, and then get larger as the animals he wants to fight get outrageously larger. At the end, there’s a great lesson about sharing and not being grouchy.

George Washington Allen is a young boy who knows almost everything about George Washington. Their birthdays are even on the same day! But one morning, George realizes that he doesn’t know what George Washington ate for breakfast, and he is determined to find out. His grandmother promises to make him a breakfast just like George Washington, and the search begins.
This is a fun little book. A definite must-read for Washington’s Birthday, (oh, and George W. Allen’s birthday, too!).

Bert Dow is a fisherman who lives with his sister, Lulu, along with his pet giggling gull. One day, he sails out to sea in the Tidely Idely to go fishing, along with the giggling gull, and hooks a whale tail! Adventures with whales follow.
This review may not sound interesting, but please read Burt Dow, Deep-Water Man! A good book, in my opinion.
