They're short, they're funny, they're topical, and they're cheap.
Little Critter's younger sister is interfering with his day with his friend, saying no-no-no all the time. Very realistic look at sibling relations, my nieces (even the younger one) really got it.

I really wasn't too enamored with this Little Critter book. Maybe that's because I haven't had a child who said no to everything like this, and maybe it's because I was an older child and can relate to having to iclude the younger child in everything, even if the younger isn't actually participating but is in fact messing everything up. I feel like this book doesn't really teach anything useful to children at all. I'll be glad when this book goes back to the library.
It is a book to teach children that younger siblings will ruin a lot but it is always good to include them on things and share and be nice. The book tells of how a family works together to get through life.
Little Critter is having a bad day. His baby sister follows him everywhere and stops him from doing what he wants to do.

Mercer Mayer was born December 30, 1943 in Little Rock Arkansas. While attending school at the Honolulu Museum of Art, Mayer decided to enter the field of children's book illustration. He created a portfolio of sketches and peddled them wherever he could. He moved to New York City in 1964, pursuing further instruction at the Art Students League of show more New York, where he met an artist named Marianna who became his first wife. He soon created a new portfolio and with these new sketches persuaded editors at Dial Press and Harper & Row to give him some illustration work. Mayer published his first book, A Boy, a Dog, and a Frog, at Dial Press in 1967. It was notable for being a completely wordless picture book one that tells its story entirely with pictures. Mayer was one of the first illustrators to be credited for using this format. Five more books in this series were to follow. Mayer joined Golden Publishing, creators of Little Golden Books, in 1976. Through them he has sold his "Little Critter" and "Little Monster" series, which are popular with beginning readers. His title Just Me and My Dad made The New York Times Best Seller List for 2012. In 2015, his title Little Critter: Just a Little Love, also made the list. His holiday book, Merry Christmas Mom and Dad, is also a bestseller. (Bowker Author Biography) show less
