Little Bitty Friends by Elizabeth Mcpike
From marveling over lady bugs and caterpillars, marching like ants, stretching to the sun like a buttercup, and more, toddlers make friends with animals and plants alike. Of course playing with little bitty friends tires them out and the action winds down for a nap. Readers will be inspired to explore the backyard or the park and make little bitty friends of their own!
“A terrific choice to encourage children (and their hovering adults) to discover the wonders of the world around them. . . Adorable babies and toddlers are shown observing, mimicking, and/or tenderly handling a furry caterpillar, buttercups, a baby bird, and a bitty snail. The repetitive words and sweet images capture this enchanted world of discovery.”—School Library Journal
“This gentle rhyming book, featuring a racially diverse collection of small children, highlights the fascination children feel for creatures even smaller than themselves. . . . Engaging artwork underscores a valuable message about the joys of close observation.”—Booklist
“Happy, curious toddlers of different races revel in the wonder of the natural world as they encounter small creatures, a willow tree, buttercups, etc. . . A visually inviting book that would make a great addition to toddler storytime.”—The Horn Book Guide
