Tuesday Storytime: Animals Behaving Oddly

A fun theme, and our trainee is starting to relax into storytime a bit: doing sound effects and animal noises, trying out different voices for characters. Very nice progress, and good to see him enjoying the process a bit now that it's not so new and intimidating.

Mr. Tiger Goes Wild

Peter Brown

ISBN: 9780316200639

Mr. Tiger lives in an anthropomorphic Victorian city, but he decides to get back to nature instead.

This one is a read from a Summer Reading Program a few years back, and I've liked it since I first saw it.

The Crocodile Who Didn't Like Water

Gemma Merino

ISBN: 9780735841635

Baby croc doesn't like water, and doesn't fit in, until he realizes something very important.

This one also was a past summer reading hit, and it's very cute and has a fun twist at the end.

It's Only Stanley

Jon Agee

ISBN: 9780803739079

Stanley is the family dog, and he has some very interesting (and noisy) late night hobbies.

Agee does very interesting work: feels very much like "classics" from the 70s, I love that all the effort was for love of a moon-dog. That makes me quite delighted.
