Editor’s Note In this time of giving, gift a book! Babies love them, but how to choose? What makes a good read for a three-month-old? A black and white accordion book for supervised tummy time. A five-month-old? An Indestructible® to mouth and crinkle. An eight-month old? A sturdy board book with felt flaps to peek under. Publishers’ age ranges and blue age icons in the catalog pages help. The 2019 fall publishing season brings a sleighful of holiday titles and wintry reads including the much anticipated board release of the picture book Red Sled by Lita Judge. There’s bedtime magic—Dinosnores and Simon Says Open the Book, and two bilingual board books about opposites—Lejos Far and Cerca Close. There’s a cautionary tale that is perfect for the holidays, The Bad Mood, and an antidote, Classic Munsch Moods. Talk it out.

2


There’s a book about what, and what not, to eat—Yum Yummy Yuck. Fruitcake! And a book about how Waiting is Not Forever, with tips for toddlers and grown-ups alike. There are fresh takes on nursery rhymes—Go, Go, Pirate Boat, This Little Piggy, and One, Two, Buckle My Shoe among them, and an elegant first story for twoyear olds, Car Goes Far. Thank you publishers for helping ALL A BOARD! share your books! What’s on top of your read-aloud stack? P.S. I love fruitcake. Linda McInnis, MEd

Anatomy of a Wordless Book Red Sled Lita Judge draws a wonderous winter tale. Like many in the wordless picture book genre, Red Sled (2011, 2019) holds a scattering of print. Printed sounds, Scrinch scrunch, stage a frosty cold day. Exclamations punctuate pages with fun.

What’s Inside? Winter sounds Forest animals A raucous ride Exclamations! A visual narrative

6

A bear spies a child’s sled outside a cabin in the woods, Hrmmm?. He takes a rabbit for a ride, skidding across the snowy countryside. One by one, forest animals hop on and hang tight, sharing a joyous adventure that ends with a big Whoa and a fluoomp……..ft in the snow. The bear returns the sled as his friends look on. The next day, the child, sled in hand, spies pawprints in the snow, Hmmm?.

Wordless picture books put lots of words in your mouth. Book sharing renders the narrative. Wh- questions clarify. The telling—long or short—will depend on the age and experiences of the child reader. Lita Judge has authored and illustrated many children’s books. Visit https://litajudge.net/

age icons Six icons help match book to baby based on developmental age. They supplement, they do not replace, publishers’ reading age recommendations. Boundaries are fluid—books recommended for one age group may spill over into the next. Many books read to a variety of ages.

newborn to 6 months Books for very young babies bathe baby’s ears in language sounds. Bold graphics, crinkly inserts, and movement draw fuzzy eyes to the page. Books may have brightly colored or black and white pictures, puppet inserts, playful songs to sing, lullabies to sooth, an accordion spine for supervised tummy time.

6 to 12 months Books for 6- to 12-month-olds are necessarily sturdy boards. They teach names of noisy things—animals, toys, vehicles—one thing, one noise, one page at a time. They may have holes to poke, pages to sniff, flaps to peek under, mirror inserts, songs to sing, and rhymes that play off the page. One and two word sentences label baby’s day.

12 to 18 months Books for 12- to 18-month-olds are language primers with uncluttered pages picturing people, places, and things to point to. They tell about baby’s day—sleeping, eating, playing, dressing, bathing, helping. Books introduce concepts such as sharing, Oh-Oh! and No!. They may teach baby anatomy—Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes…

18 to 24 months

Books for 18- to 24-month-olds expand on the basics with farmyards full of animals and roadways busy with vehicles for naming. Pictures and simple verse teach the language of feelings and emotion. Nursery and nonsense rhymes tickle baby’s funny bone. Books mirrors toddlers’ growing sense of independence. Concept books introduce colors, shapes, opposites, letters, and numbers 1 and 2. Early favorites become repeat reads. Anatomy books teach more parts.

24 to 36 months

Books for toddlers and young preschoolers have simple stories, relatable characters and ask questions. Concept books teach manners, more colors, shapes and opposites, letters, and numbers 1 through 10. Board books based on picture books spark interest.

36+ months

Book themes and vocabulary are suited for older preschoolers. Books with a 36+ reading age recommendation may have novelty pages that are safety-rated for children ages 3 and up. Check book packaging and back cover for information.
