Amelia Bedelia's First Field Trip by Herman Parish

Amelia Bedelia is sure she will love everything about the
field trip to the farm.  Collecting eggs, milking a cow, riding
a tractor, planting seeds and the picnic lunch.  Amelia Bedelia
can't wait.  What could be better? A class field trip!  Hooray for
school! Hooray for the farm!


Press Here by Herve Tullet

Press here.  That's right. Just press the yellow dot. And
turn the page.  The single touch of a finger sparks a whimsical
dance of color and motion in this joyful celebration of the
power of the imagination.

Subway Story by Julia Sarcone-Roach

Meet Jessie! Jessie loves being a subway car.  She loves soaring
over bridges and racing through tunnels.  She especially loves helping people
get from place to place. 
But when sleek silver cars start taking over the tracks, Jessie must leave behind
everything she has ever known to embark on an off-track adventure, one
that will lead to new friends and a new home under the sea...
Based on the true story of 1960's era subway cars that are now
being used to create artificial reefs in the Atlantic, this train tale
will delight parents and kids alike!
