Chester by Melanie Watt is a cute and funny book. Kids will definitely enjoy this book because it’s about a silly cat who wants all the attention to himself. Melanie Watt’s website says that parents will probably enjoy the books more than the kids and that might just be true because I really enjoyed reading this book. It was so funny.
Melanie Watts has written and illustrated many other children’s books including Scaredy Squirrel, and another one about a penguin called Agustine. Melanie Watt has also written concept books about colors and shapes. I would definitely use her books in my classroom.
Squeaky Clean by Simon Puttock and illustrated by Mary McQuillan is a book about three little dirty pigs that do not want to take a bath at first but once they get in the tub they enjoy bath time. This book would make a good read aloud because of the way it is written. Simon Puttock has also written many children’s book and he currently lives in Scotland where he has won several awards for his books.
