Bridget's Beret

by Tom Lichtenheld Bridget loves to draw and she only draws when she is wearing her beret (a hat). One day as she is drawing outside, her beret gets swept away by the wind.  How will she ever draw again? I really liked this book a lot. It makes me want to learn to draw and buy a beret!

Big Red Lollipop

by Rukhsana Khan. Ill. by Sophie Blackall A young girl named Rubina is invited to a birthday party, but her mom doesn't really understand American birthday parties and insists that Rubina bring her little sister with her to the party.  If you have ever had a fight with your brother or sister, gotten mad that your little sister or brother is bothering you, or wanted to be just like your big brother or sister, you will like this book.  If you are an only child and don't have a brother or sister, you might be glad after reading this.  In other words, this book is for everyone.
