Children's books read Jun 14

 





Hip and The Kindness Tree by Sandra Blake
Colorful, children's educational book.  Book starts out with about the author.
Story starts at chapter 1 with its title. Love that each page is a different chapter and has it's own title and text in the chapter explains more about the title.
Hip finds an empty spot and wants to plant a garden, he has an idea that he hopes will work.
He plants a seed and sits back to watch it grow.
Seed has special powers that if others do a good deed for others the seed grows higher, even blossoms with a flower. Everybody in th jungle is doing a good deed. One day no one does a good deed and the plant starts to die. Hip starts all over again with a good deed and others pitch in also. Love hearing from all the other animals in the jungle. Colorful pictures in every chapter.
Moral of the story: Every little act counts.

Hip Learns to say Sorry by Sandra Blake

I am a baker of muffins myself and know where they all are but sometimes I leave the room for minute...
Book starts where the chapter has its own title. There are color pictures and then more is explained, about the title.
Hip is enjoying the sunny day at the park. Others are there, Benny the Bunny and they are playing leaf chase game.
Because of Hips size he didn't realize he had bumped into Benny by accident.
Hip thinks he's ruined the fun. Marvin helps Hip understand that you should say sorry for bumping into you.
Hip did not mean to bump Benny at all. He found the bunny sniffling and they talk to one another. After that they went off to play again.
Saying sorry made everything better.
Love hearing more from the animals in the jungle.
