A Ball for Daisy", "Garth Pig Steals the Show" and "How to Make a Cherry Pie and See the U.S.A."
These all sounded interesting and were.
How to Make a Cherry Pie and See the U.S.A.
4 stars
Author/Illustrator: Marjorie Priceman
Cherry Pie is a delicious dessert and the book begins with a recipe for making one. Things change after that.
What if you don't have some item? Well, you can go and get it from where it comes from like: making a pie pan and measuring spoons; picking cotton for pot holders; cutting wood for a rolling pin and more. Although these looks at where items come from is simplified, it does give an idea where the things we take for granted come from.
The illustrations are colorful and fun as the girl and her dog visit various states to find her raw materials.
Garth Pig Steals the Show
5 stars
Author/Illustrator: Mary Raynor
The Pig family has formed a band. They are booked for a concert, but need a bass player. The woman who volunteers is rather suspicious. However, the concert must go on.
All of the illustrations are nice showing the various instruments.
A Ball for Daisy
5 stars
Author/Illustrator: Chris Raschka
There is no text in this book. It is an easy book for very young children to follow the story of Daisy and her ball.
