Cheryl Christian

Star Bright Books, 2005

Great little book!!
I work at a parent's day out program in the baby room. We care for children ages 6wks- 2 yrs old. And this book is a favorite. We keep having to replace it because the pages get worn! This little book is loved by each and every child that comes through our room!! I ...

Em Be O' Dau? (Where's the Baby? (Vietnamese Edition)

Cheryl Christian, Laura Dwight

Star Bright Books, 2004

Pleasant surprise
Honestly I ordered this book not knowing anything about it other than it was a board book and it was written in Vietnamese. With that said, I was happy to find that though it doesn't have English translation on the pages, it is quite simple to interpret. I also think ...

Brothers and Sisters

Star Bright Books, 2005

Like most brothers and sisters, the siblings in this book play together, compete with each other, and help one another. In Brothers and Sisters , we meet a number of sibling groups in which at least one member has a physical disability. This book shows that having a sibling with a disability is not so different from having a sibling without a ...

Be Quiet, Marina!

Kirsten Debear, Laura Dwight

Star Bright Books, 2001

Learning about friendship
I enjoyed reading this book to the 1st graders at my daughter's school. The children at this age are searching for friendship but are still hesitant to embrace it when they find it. The book gave me many opportunities to talk about how Moira and Marina had problems to ...

Where's The Kitten?(English/ Haitian Creole Bilingual Edition) (Photoflap Board Books)

Cheryl Christian

Star Bright Books, 2005

A wonderful book for toddlers who love kittens & surprises
I bought this book for my oldest son about six years ago, and he just loved it (we have a cat, and he loved our cat too). It's a wonderful book for little kids because they can participate by lifting the flaps, and they love the surprise of finding the kitten hidden ...

Dónde va? (Where Does it Go? Spanish edition)

Cheryl Christian, Laura Dwight

Star Bright Books, 2001

poor grammar
I haven't purchased this book, nor have I even looked at it, but after seeing that the title is grammatically incorrect, there is NO way I would buy it. I can't make accents on my laptop, but the title should say, 'Adonde va?' with an accent on the O and an upside ...

We Are All Alike . . . We Are All Different

The Cheltenham Elementary School Kindergartners

Scholastic Paperbacks, 2002

A Most Important Lesson
As a first grade teacher for 15 years, I have used this book on the first week of school as we begin our year learning about "Friends, families and ourselves." I keep the book on the tray of my white board all year and constantly refer to the title and the lessons ...

We Are All Alike... We Are All Different
Cheltenham Elementary School Kindergartners

"We Are All Alike... We Are All Different," a book written by children for children, reinforces multicultural and anti-bias learning and appreciation. With original drawings and their own lyrical words, the children in Rosalind Goldberg's kindergarten class at Cheltenham Elementary School in Pennsylvania share the ways they look and feel, the ...

Where's the Baby?/¿Dónde está el bebé? (English/Spanish bilingual edition)

Cheryl Christian, Laura Dwight

Star Bright Books, 2004

Very Pleased
I gave this book to my grandson for his first birthday. He likes to carry it around the house. Having been written in both English and Spanish is a great idea. My grandson will need to know Spanish since his family may become missionaries in a Spanish speaking country.

We Can Do It!

Laura Dwight

Star Bright Books, 2005

A lively book of photographs of special children as children
We Can Do It has photographs of 5 children with Down Syndrome, spina bifida, blindness and cerebral palsy having fun and enjoying ordinary activities at home and at school. The unposed (I think!) photographs are refreshing and inspiring to anyone who has an interest ...

Y ahora, qué pasará? (Photoflaps)

Cheryl Christian

Star Bright Books, 1999

great book
My 16 month old LOVES this book, and has for several months now. In general, she prefers English books (because that is what she's used to) but she insists that I read this one to her two or three times before she goes to sleep. She studies the pictures very intently ...

Where's the Puppy? (traditional Chinese)
Cheryl Christian, Laura Dwight

Star Bright Books, 2004

Here are the puppy's things, but where is the puppy? Lift the flaps to find out where the puppy is hiding!

What Happens Next? (Photo Flaps)

Cheryl Christian

Checkerboard Press, 1991

An adorable board book for toddlers
This very cute board book has flaps which reveal, for example, a baby in the previously empty bathtub. It is all about an ordinary day, which my kids love: bath, bed, sandbox. One child has Down syndrome. Plus an adorable boy on the cover.

¿Dónde está el bebé?

Cheryl Christian

Star Bright Books, 1999

We love this libro!
My 15 month old son is being raised bilingual. This book is one of his favorites becuase it combines Spanish and flaps to open and is durable! Sometimes he 'reads' it by himself and laughs when he sees the baby. It also uses simple vocabulary and is a good starter ...
