Big Berry: A Little Moral Story About Gratitude
by Dan YaccarinoThere&’s nothing more important for kids entering preschool than to be emotionally ready—ready to separate from their parents, to mix and play with new children, to broaden their sense of the world. HAPPYLAND, from award-winning children&’s author Dan Yaccarino, is a new series that gives kids, and their parents, the language they need to take these emotional steps. HAPPYLAND introduces three friends—Bink, Clyde, and Glub-Glub—in a series of delightful adventures. In BIG BERRY, a story about gratitude, Bink follows a butterfly as it flits from one berry-bearing plant to the next. As the berries grow ever larger, Bink&’s desire for the biggest berry grows ever stronger—until she grabs the very largest, which is so big it rolls away and disappears. If only she&’d been happy with the normal-sized berry. Dan Yaccarino&’s bold, colorful art and simple, direct style lifts these moral stories into the realm of perfectly engaging parables.
Big Boys Cry
by Jonty HowleyLet boys cry! This picture book imagines a world in which boys are encouraged to express their full range of emotions.It's Levi's first day at a new school, and he's scared. His father tries to comfort Levi by telling him "Big boys don't cry." Though the father immediately understands his misstep, he can't find the words to comfort his son, and Levi leaves for school, still in need of reassurance. Fortunately, along his walk to school, Levi sees instance after instance of grown men openly expressing their sadness and fear. His learned mantra, "Big boys don't cry," slowly weakens, and by the time he's at school he releases a tear. Once he's there, things aren't so bad after all, and on his walk home he sees everyone he's encountered earlier, feeling better now that they expressed their emotions. Upon his arrival home, he finds his father waiting for him on their porch, tears in his eyes. His father is able to admit that he was scared and the two embrace, closer than before. Jonty Howley's gorgeous debut paints the world we wish existed for our boys, and offers a path there! This story is the truest interpretation of the notion that we should "let boys be boys": let them express the full range of their emotions, vulnerable parts and all!
