The Duckling Gets a Cookie! by Mo Willems

The Pigeon and his little "friend" Duckling are back! (Yes, it came out today.....and yes, I drove to B and N to get it at lunch....yes, I am probably more excited than the kids!) So this time the Pigeon is upset because the Duckling has a cookie and he does not. How did the Duckling get a coookie? Hasn't the Pigeon asked for things before? Why is he never given anything? It is just NOT fair! The Duckling being a kind Duckling decides to.....share. BUT why? What makes this Duckling sooooo willing to share?? LOVE the Pigeon and his little friend! Can't wait to share this one tonight at bed time....Thanks again Mo!

IT'S HERE!!! Should I Share My Ice Cream? by Mo Willems

I truly believe each new Piggie and Elephant gets better and better! Every time a new one comes out....I say, "This is my favorite..." only to have it replaced with the NEXT one! So on to the new one....Gerald has an ice cream cone. He is so excited as he LOVES ice cream. But WAIT. His friend Piggie does TOO! But where is Piggie? He should share his ice cream? Shouldn't he? As in true Mo WIllems fashion, this book will have kids laughing from the cover to the end pages....with our friend the pigeon showing up as always. I was so impressed that Adam grabbed the book from my hand....and opened right to the back endpage to find the pigeon....and BURST OUT LAUGHING!!! Love that my little one loves books...and Mo as much as I do!
