Knuffle Bunny Free: an unexpected diversion
by Mo Willems, 2010
Book Description: Trixie and her family are off on a fantastic trip to visit her grandparents - all the way in Holland! But does Knuffle Bunny have different travel plans?
Trixie goes on an adventure to Holland to visit her Oma & Opa. First plane ride for Trixie and Knuffle Bunny. If you're familiar with Knuffle Bunny like I am, you know Trixie is going to lose Knuffle Bunny somewhere. Where she loses Knuffle Bunny and how she comes to terms with the possibility of never seeing Knuffle Bunny again makes this the best of the Knuffle Bunny books.
The best part of the book is Mo Willem's dedication to his daughter, Trixie, at the end of the story. Even though this is a book for kids, any parent would enjoy the Knuffle Bunny series.
Of course, you can't forget to look for pigeon hidden in the story!
Recommended for Grades K-2.

Rules for School
by Alec Greven, 2010
Book Description: School is hard! There's a lot to know, like where to sit on the bus, how to find your way around the halls, and what to do to make sure you stay on your teacher's good side. Lucky for you Alec Greven has just turned eleven, and he's seen it all. Alec passes down his sixth-grade wisdom and gives advice that will help every student who's starting out or just started out on the wrong foot.
Recommended for grades K and up.
Every child that will be attending school in the future, currently going to school, even grown-ups that have experienced school should read this book! Some of it might even apply to going to college! Alec Greven is back again with his down-to-Earth way of telling the reader how it is. I loved every minute of it, from the facts he provides (21% of kids are excited to go to school, 70% of kids are scared, and 9% of kids just don't really care) to his advice about asking questions, don't make mom mad, school picture day and homework (there are 2 steps to homework: 1. Bring home 2. Do it 3. Bring back to school).
I strongly recommend this to any child nervous about the first day of school.
