This playful picture book has bright illustrations and engaging text. It was one of my favorites as a child, I always hoped I would find an egg like that! ( )

I really want to like these, but they just keep being preachy and talking-down and... ow. ( )

A frog named Jessica one day stumbles upon a very large stone that happens to be more than just a stone. This is my first book I've ever read by Leo Lionni and it turned out to be such a hilarious read. I pictured myself reading it to a classroom of students and I couldn't help imagine how fun of a read it would be for them. Aside from being a funny story, this picture book can lead to informative discussions about the wildlife mentioned in the story and much more. ( )
