What a fun holiday. I’m sure you’re not surprised to read that I have the perfect picture book recommendation to recommend for today:
Margaret (aka Ducky) knows all about ducks, so she shares duck facts with everyone she meets. That includes Marvin who is not so wild about hearing Ducky go on and on and on. In time, Ducky and Marvin both learn something new and find enough common ground to become friends. This book is so relatable! How often does a child become so excited about one topic that it becomes an obsession to the point that it annoys others? This story shows how “Ducky” both teaches and learns something in a day at camp and, as a result, gains a friend. Adorable illustrations and characters, plus themes of understanding, friendship, and acceptance make this book a winner!

You know I have a perfect picture book to recommend for this holiday.
After moving to a new home, Spencer makes a friend. And then another. And another. But, to Spencer’s family and neighbors, these new friends are a bit unusual. They’re all plants. That doesn’t bother Spencer one bit. After all, he and his new friends understand each other perfectly. Jiarui Jiang’s choice of color palette is well-suited to depict the full array of Spencer’s foliage friends and perfectly pairs with Becky Scharnhorst’s charming text that is full of heart and light humor. Fans of friendship stories (or plants!) are sure to love BEST BUDS!
