Bugs Don’t Hug: Six-Legged Parents and Their Kids, by Heather L. Montgomery, Stephen Stone (Illustrator)
If you don’t believe that you have much in common with a bug, you may think again after reading this fact-filled and fun-filled non-fiction picture book. Bugs may go about parenting a little bit differently, but they still feed, protect, and keep their babies close and safe. For instance, Short-Tailed crickets lay the eggs that they feed their young—no grocery stores and scrambled eggs for them! This read will have you thinking about bugs in a whole new way, and would be particularly great for any bug squeemish kids (or grown-ups)! Bugs, they’re just like us!

Hungry Bunny, by Claudia Rueda
This book is perfect as we roll into fall and apple picking season! (And perhaps more importantly—apple pie season. Yum!) Bunny is hungry, but has a hard time reaching the apples on the trees in the orchard. So Bunny comes up with a few clever ideas for the reader to help get to the apples (shaking the book, blowing on the book), antics made all the more fun by using a red ribbon “scarf.”

This book is a sweet father and son story about a boy who goes with his father to work as a nighttime janitor at the school.
