PreS–This sweet book is worthy of its well-loved creators. The rhyming, rhythmic verses are clear and playful, and the familiar goings-on will inspire youngsters to mimic the children they see on the pages. “These itsy-bitsy babies play peek-a-boo./Those itsy-bitsy babies like to shampoo..../These itsy-bitsy babies eat toast and eggs./Those itsy-bitsy babies look through their legs.” Colorful backdrops fade under the text, making the words easy to read. Pastel illustrations show cheerful babies–and a few toddlers–from a variety of backgrounds. This title will work well as a read-aloud one-on-one and in groups

K-Gr 1–Macaroni and Cheese may be best friends, but the two street cats couldn't be more different in their likes and dislikes. A day in his paw prints reveals that Macaroni will eat anything and simply loves "bouncing, pouncing, flipping." Puzzled, he levels with his friend–"I like to flip and skip and sing, but Cheese, you don't like anything." Quiet and fastidious Cheese truthfully replies, "The only thing I like to do is sit here quietly with you." As an errant gust of wind steals Mac's very blue and very flat hat, Cheese proves he's more than a do-nothing grump in order to get it back. This book is a Level 1 addition to the series. Correspondingly, the simple sentences with ample white space suit the brief snippets of rhyming dialogue between the two characters, and brightly colored watercolor illustrations of the feline alley friends reveal expressions ranging from Mac's sheer glee to Cheese's exasperated disgust. Simplicity of text, action illustrated to lead readers in turning the page, and a satisfying conclusion makes this easy reader a solid selection for all libraries.
