Monster on the Bus

Monster and the little boy were riding the bus. The bus driver stopped because there was a dog in the way and everyone tried to move it. Look for this book to see how monster helps.

I gave this book five stars because it was very entertaining. I thought it was funny that the dog wouldn't move.

Giraffes Can't Dance

Written by Giles Andreae, Illustrated by Guy Parker-Rees


Giraffes Can't Dance is a great book about Gerald the giraffe. Even though he is not a very good dancer, Gerald goes to a dance party in the jungle. When Gerald tries to dance, all of the other animals laugh at him. Gerald really wants to dance, but he doesn't know how to do it well. Read this book to find out how Gerald solves his problem.

This picture book has a great rhythm, wonderful illustrations and a good message. I recommend it to anyone who loves a good story.
