SUMMARY:Storytime: The Worst Read-Aloud Books Ever
DESCRIPTION:Grades PreK – 3 \nIntroduced by Cierra Bragan\, Miami Mom Collective. \nLet’s get real – the English language is bizarre. A might be for apple\, but it’s also for aisle and aeons. Why does the word “gnat” start with a G but the word “knot” doesn’t start with an N? It doesn’t always make sense in Raj Haldar’s P is for Pterodactyl: The Worst Alphabet Book Ever\, but don’t let these rule-breaking silent letters defeat you! \nYou can’t believe everything you hear. A single word can have many different meanings. And sometimes two words that sound alike can be spelled completely differently. In No Reading Allowed: The Worst Read-Aloud Book Ever\, Haldar takes a fresh look at the English language for children and their parents to laugh together. Ptolemy the pterodactyl is back to show us all how absurd and fun language can be when homophones\, homonyms\, and tricky punctuation are at play. \n  \nSponsored by:\n \nThe Children’s Trust Family Resource Guide | Romero Britto Coloring Book \nBook Club Flyer – English | Book Club Flyer – Spanish | Book Club Flyer – Creole

SUMMARY:Storytime: The Alphabet’s Alphabet
DESCRIPTION:Grades PreK – 2 \nHere’s a totally twisted take on the alphabet that invites readers to look at it in a whole new way: An A is an H that just won’t stand up right\, a B is a D with its belt on too tight\, and a Z is an L in a tug-of-war fight! Twenty-six letters\, unique from each other – and yet\, every letter looks just like one another! Kind of like … one big family. The Alphabet’s Alphabet is a mind-bending riddle of delightful doppelgängers and surprising disguises that reveal we’re more alike than we may think. You’ll never look at the alphabet the same way again! \n  \nSponsored by:\n \nThe Children’s Trust Family Resource Guide | Romero Britto Coloring Book \nBook Club Flyer – English | Book Club Flyer – Spanish | Book Club Flyer – Creole
