Product description
<p><strong>Ages 4-8</strong><br /> </p><p><strong>Can I Join Your Club? (H) – Kane Miller</strong><br />Duck just has one question: <em>Can I Join Your Club?</em><br /><br />He wants to belong to all of them. To any of them. Elephant Club, Lion Club, he just wants to belong. And he tries so hard to fit in so he can – kids will love pointing out in the illustrations just exactly how he tries – a curly wig, dark glasses – but it just doesn’t work. He can’t be someone else.<br /><br />So, he starts his own club. And there’s ONE rule – everyone is welcome! Because when it comes to making friends, being yourself is all that counts, in this heartwarming celebration of diversity, inclusiveness and friendship.<br /> </p><p><strong>Otters vs. Badgers (H) – Kane Miller</strong><br />The otters and badgers live on either side of the river, but they have never seen eye to eye. One day, shy and gentle otter-baker Francie accidentally ventures into the badger lands in search of a new ingredient and unwittingly sets off a new chapter in the ongoing feud... Can Francie’s amazingly delicious cookies help both sides learn to get along?<br /> </p><p><strong>Don't Forget (H) – Kane Miller</strong><br />From the practical daily things like making your bed and brushing your teeth, to things like remembering to smile, lend a hand, and smell the flowers, this simple and heartwarming reminder about all the comforting things that are important is perfect for family sharing.<br /> </p><p><strong>The Smile (H) – Kane Miller</strong><br />A smile is a beautiful gift. Follow one smile's journey to discover all the joy it brings. A celebration of kindness, no matter what form it may take.</p>
