Editorials
Children's Literature -
Expressive little faces of multiethnic children peer out at readers accompanied by just one word or phrase on the adjoining page. The girl with her face and lips all puckered up really looks like she has encountered something "yucky!" It is interesting that most of the faces and words represent things that are not necessarily enjoyable. In addition to "yucky," other featured words are "stinky," "uh-oh," and "boo hoo." The book does end on a happy note with a big "yippee!" The bold colors on the textual pages offer opportunities to point out and name the colors. Children who enjoy looking at pictures of other kids may get a chuckle out of this board book. Part of the "Look Baby! Books" series. Reviewer: Marilyn CourtotChildren's Literature -

PreS--Eye-captivating and expressive board books for infants. One or two words are paired with full-color close-up photos of a multiethnic cast of babies. In Baby Faces, emotions are directly linked to facial expressions with such simple terms as "yucky," "yum-yum," and "uh-oh." What's on My Head? presents a variety of colorful items--such as a red fire hat, a stuffed toy puppy, and a green velvet froggy--plopped squarely on top of each child's head. These first books are sure to entice future readers with interesting sights and sounds.--Selene S. Vasquez, Orange Brook Elementary School, Hollywood, FLBook Details
