Thank you Cathy Mere and Mandy Robek for hosting this Annual Picture Book 10 for 10 Event (#pb10for10)!
I love picture books so I always look forward to this event to see new titles that I haven't read or heard of yet! Below is a list of some picture books I enjoyed reading & sharing with students and teachers this year.
After the Fall by Dan Santat is a great book to read aloud for growth mindset for students of all ages. In fact, a first grade teacher and a 6th grade teacher both read it aloud to their class this past school year and both classrooms loved it! Students at different grade levels can get different messages out of it and have great conversations around them! 
There Might be Lobsters by Carolyn Crimi is a surprising story about a fear of the water. Usually it is the human character who has the fear, but this book has a twist and it is her pet dog, Suki, who is afraid of the water because there might be lobsters in it! It is a great read aloud about overcoming fears and worries and how others can help you through it! 
What Do You Do With a Chance? by Kobi Yamada is the third book in the "What Do You Do With..." series and I love all of them! This one is a great read aloud to talk about how it takes courage to take chances in life and that amazing things can happen when you take a chance. This book will lead to powerful conversations just like What Do You Do With a Problem? and What Do You Do With a an Idea? 
Jabari Jumps by Gaia Cornwall is a perfect read aloud for so many reasons! It is a great mentor text for writing small moments in writing workshop since it stretches out the moment when Jabari is trying to gain the courage to dive. It is also perfect for teaching/modeling how to use the "Somebody, Wants, But, So, Then" to summarize the story, identifying lessons learned, character impact, character change, and more! This is one of my favorite picture books! 
The Bad Seed by Jory John is a hysterical book about a bad seed that has a bad attitude and bad manners at the beginning of the story. The seed changes positively throughout the book and shows the reader that change is always possible. This is a fun book to read aloud to students of all ages. 
A Bike Like Sergio's by Maribeth Boelts
Maribeth Boelts is the author of Those Shoes, which is one of my favorite picture books so as soon as I saw she wrote a new book, I had to buy it and read it! This book reminds me of Those Shoes so it would be great to read aloud both of them to compare/contrast the books. This book would be a great read aloud during a character unit or social issues book club unit. It is also a great book to use when teaching "Somebody, Wants, But, So" to summarize, identifying character motivation, character change, character impact, turning points, and lessons learned.
The Thing Lou Couldn't Do by Ashley Spires
Ashley Spires also wrote The Most Magnificent Thing, which is one of my favorite picture books for teaching about growth mindset so as soon as I saw she wrote this, I had to buy it! This book is another perfect read aloud for teaching and discussing growth mindset with your students. I love that this book uses the phrase "not yet" in this book since that is such an important phrase for having a growth mindset. This book is a great read aloud for all grades, including primary.
The Rabbit Listened by Cori Doerrfeld is a cute book about the power of listening and that sometimes when we are going through a tough time, all we need is someone to be there to listen to us. In this book, there are a bunch of animals that try to talk to the child or give advice, but it is the rabbit who just listens and it is just what the child needed. This is an important book to remind us that sometimes our students and colleagues may just need someone to be there to listen. 
The Word Collector by Peter Reynolds - I love all of Peter Reynolds' books so was excited to see this newer one. This is a great book to read aloud and share with students to spread excitement for learning new words! 
Saturday is Swimming Day by Hyewon Yum reminds me so much of Jabari Jumps. It is about a little girl who is afraid of swimming lessons on Saturdays and seems to always have a stomachache on Saturdays. Her swimming instructor continues to encourage her each Saturday and little by little the girl begins to gain confidence and faces her fears. I look forward to sharing this book with students and teachers in the fall.
Happy Reading! :)
These sound great!

ReplyDeleteFor many years, my husband and I struggled with the pain of not being able to have a child. We tried many treatments and prayed for a miracle, but nothing worked. When I heard about Dr. Alaska, I decided to reach out with faith. After following the spiritual guidance he gave us, the unbelievable happened I finally became pregnant. Today, we are blessed with a beautiful baby, and our home is filled with happiness. Another amazing blessing came when Dr. Alaska shared lucky numbers with my husband to try in a lottery game. My husband decided to play them, and to our surprise, he won a huge amount of money. It felt like our lives changed completely in the most wonderful way. I reached him on WhatsApp: +233277283626, but if you don’t have WhatsApp you can also email him via alaskaspellcaster44@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteIt all started when I was at my lowest point, tired of trying my luck and getting nothing in return. The lottery had become more of a disappointment than a dream, and I was ready to walk away from it completely. Then I heard about Dr. Alaska through someone who claimed their life changed after contacting him. I didn’t believe it at first, but curiosity got the better of me. When I finally reached out, he spoke calmly and confidently, explaining that sometimes it’s not just about luck, but about removing the blocks holding you back. I followed his guidance step by step, even though part of me still had doubts. A few days later, I decided to give the lottery one more try using the direction he gave me. When the results came out, I was frozen in disbelief I had actually won $16.8 million. That moment changed everything for me. It wasn’t just about the money, but about realizing that sometimes taking a chance on something new can open doors you never imagined. If you’re feeling stuck and need a breakthrough, you can reach Dr. Alaska through email: alaskaspellcaster44@gmail.com or WhatsApp: +233277283626.
ReplyDeleteThere was a time I thought my marriage was over for good. A third party had completely taken over my wife’s attention, and no matter how much I tried to fix things, nothing worked. I felt helpless, frustrated, and deeply hurt watching someone else come between us. It got to a point where I almost gave up, but something pushed me to seek help and that’s when I found Dr. Alaska. What made him different was how he truly understood my pain. He didn’t judge me or rush me; instead, he patiently listened and guided me step by step. He explained everything in a way that gave me hope again. I followed his instructions with faith, even when things seemed impossible. Slowly but surely, I began to notice changes. My wife started reaching out again, her attitude softened, and the connection we lost began to rebuild. Today, I can proudly say my wife is back home, our love is restored, and the third party is no longer part of our lives. If you’re going through something similar and feel like no one understands your pain, I promise you there is still hope. You can reach Dr. Alaska on WhatsApp: +233277283626, email: alaskaspellcaster44@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI went through a very painful breakup with my boyfriend. We stopped talking, and he even blocked me on all social media. I was heartbroken and didn’t know what to do, so I started searching online for help. That’s when I came across several testimonies about Dr. Dawn and how he had helped people reunite broken relationships and marriages, as well as helped women conceive through his guidance.
ReplyDeleteAt first, I was unsure, but I decided to reach out to him. When we spoke, he told me things about myself and my relationship that were surprisingly accurate. He then guided me on what I should do.
To my surprise, within 48 hours, my boyfriend—who had completely cut me off—started calling me and sending me many messages, apologizing and asking for forgiveness. I forgave him, and we got back together.
Not only that, but with his support and guidance, we are now blessed with two beautiful children.
I am truly grateful for everything, and I strongly recommend Dr. Dawn to anyone going through relationship, marriage, or fertility challenges.

Jabari Jumps is such a good choice for talking about fear and courage with kids. The moment where he finally jumps feels earned because the book takes its time with his hesitation rather than rushing past it.
ReplyDeleteI was scammed over ( $197,600 ) by someone I met online on a fake investment project.

You can get your ex back and cure your infertility problems with Dr Reethesh. When I met Dr Reethesh, my husband had divorced me because I was a barren woman at 32 years of age and I have been married for five years. I went to many hospitals and all the doctors I met were telling me that i'll not be able to give birth again. The doctors were telling me that I am affected with Chlamydia, Gonorrhea and Uterine Fibroids. They were advising me to go for child adoption. I was devastated and confused as a woman of my age. I went online to look for help on how to get my marriage back then I met Dr Reethesh. Within a few weeks of contacting Dr Reethesh, my ex husband came back home and pleaded for me to forgive him and take him back after six months of divorce. I accepted him back and then I told Dr Reethesh of my bareness for him to help me. He did the spell for fertility. I took the herbs he sent to me. And after some months of finishing the herbs, I conceived. My husband got me pregnant and I gave birth to a handsome son. Presently, I am a mother of a handsome son and I am happy in my marriage. All thanks to Dr Reethesh and his wonderful work. Contact Dr Reethesh Via WhatsApp: +2349012999010 OR Email: reethesh60@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteHow Dr Wale made life easy for me. I was in love with my high school girlfriend. We grew up together with strong love and sweet understanding. We were living peacefully together with ourselves. But here is how things started going wild for us. My woman works in a different city far away from me, So the best way of getting in touch is through communicating on the phone. But after five months, Our communication started slowing down. Whenever I call her she'll say she's busy and that she'll call me back when she's done with everything. That day will finish without her calling back, It's continue for months till I decide to pay her a surprise visit in the city where she works. After some few days with her I found out that my woman has been having an affair with his boss in the office. When I tried to question her about it, She told me that she was done with me and she doesn't want us to continue anymore. Those words broke my heart into pieces to the point that I almost took my life. Before going to my city she blocked me on all her social media handles. I went back to my city with deep pain inside of me, I was depressed and felt betrayed by her actions. After some months still living in pain and bitterness I told a friend of mine about the issues, My friend told me he'II introduced me to Dr Wale he said that Dr Wale is the only man that can bring back my happiness. He said to me his marriage is perfect today with the help of Dr Wale. When I reached out to Dr Wale and told him everything that was going on he told me to be calm and that I'II be a happy man again. Dr Wale instructed me to make payment for Items needed. The magic started when my woman gave me a call two days later crying on the phone begging me to please have mercy on her. She said she doesn't know what came over her that made her behave badly. We're now back together living happily again like we used to before. I wanna give all thanks to Dr Wale for making everything possible and for bringing my woman back to me. If you need any kind of help Dr Wale is the right man to contact.
