Titch and Daisy
"When Titch arrives at a party and doesn't find his friend Daisy among the guests, he refuses to participate in any of the activities. In fact, though, Daisy is in attendance, shyly hiding, wishing Titch were there. When the toddlers meet, they join in the festivities. Full-color gouache illustrations convey the lively setting and a pleasingly diverse set of party-goers."--School Library Journal.

I enjoy books like this, that beg for participation. It worked really well, because my story time has become younger as my toddlers have switched to it due to the croweded lap time with all the new babies. So I use this as a young "I spy" book. We started out looking for Daisy, but soon they were pointing out Titch and Daisy.
Titch doesn't want to go to the party and hides until he finds his friend Daisy. They both enjoy the party then and make lots of new friends. 9/12/12
Used again this year, but my class didn't show and the young children that stayed over from Lap Time were to shy to participate.
