Mazie’s Amazing Machines should interest young inspiring inventors and engineers ! It is a fun and really smart read ! I love how the author explains the functioning of each machine at the end of the book. It is the perfect read for young dreamers who want to imagine great things !

The Golden Bowl is a sweet story meant for young readers. A little art lover girl is very excited about her dog’s coming birthday, but no gift seems adequate enough for the animal : a necklace ? A decorated dog biscuit with frosting ? A painted bowl ? The latest seems the best gift and Zoya works very hard on her création, sharing color names with the reader in the process.

This picture book is truly gorgeous : based on the true story of Mildred, Harriet, Brenda, and Wilma Moody, this non fiction book shows the incredible work realized by the sisters in Southern California in the 30s.

This adorable picture book is based on the true story of Lars and Astrid Fossberg, a couple from Norway who opened a Ski Resort in Canada. Inspired by Norwegian folklore, the story follows a couple of trolls who travel around to distant lands and find a beautiful mountain to build a house, have a family and realize their dreams.

This picture book is deliciously adorable ! Buckwheat the black and white dog is very hungry ! Exploring Jewish food, the animal counts each of the tantalizing dishes : one golden challah, two matzo balls, three matzos, four kugels, five knishes, and so on.

Betty and the Mysterious Visitor is a beautiful and touching picture book which celebrates nature and family relationships. The illustrations are so delicate and colorful, I really love them ! I enjoyed the mystery twist in the story and the imaginative creation of the young heroine to save her grandmother’s garden.

If you liked my recent children's picture book The Tyrannosaur's Feathers, you might also be interested in my previous book, The Plesiosaur's Neck.

“There’s one thing about her that’s hard to ignore,
THAT RIDICULOUS NECK!
What on Earth was it for?”

It encourages critical evidence-based thinking and concludes that scientists don't yet have the answer to everything.

Hall’ s creations are colorful picture books that celebrate diversity, uniqueness and families. I love the multicultural representation : children from all backgrounds and families from all around the world are shown celebrating or doing everyday activities.

This children’s book is perfect ! The art and text are amazing. Author Dave Eggers and artist Júlia Sardà spin a quirky historical event into a whimsical and tall-ish true tale of human ingenuity. Highly recommended if your child has a hard time reading nonfiction or history books.

Emotional,beautiful and poetic story about a song that transcended decades. Written by a wife’s late husband, the song is later shared by a musician. It is a sad, but hopeful story about love, loss, and how memories and creations continue to live, even after the loved one is gone.

I can be All Three is a beautiful picture book celebrating roots, family and multiculturalism. This book is a great conversation starter with young children about family history and about the story of who they are.

I associate Jon Klassen work with delicious dark humor, originality and beautiful art. The Skull is no different. Retelling of a Tyrolean Folktale, it is the story of an unexpected friendship, a growing experience for Otilla, the young heroine, and a dark gothic tale that will make young readers shiver with excitement and anticipation.

Aus dem Bilderbuch "Der Kraxenflori". (1975 bei Sellier/Freising)

In diesem Bilderbuch hat Ali Mitgutsch eine Geschichte aus den 'Erinnerungen eines alten Malers' von R.S. Zimmermann illustriert.

Der Kraxenflori wird im Wald von Räubern aufgegriffen, kann dann aber flüchten und die Gendarmerie und Dorfbewohner zur Hilfe holen.
