Star Wars Colors

Atticus's Aunt Jessica purchased a Star Wars board book trilogy for him over a year ago. He has shown little to no interest in these books until about two weeks ago. He is now obsessed. He had Star Wars Valentines (Yoda Best Valentine), reads his board books 2-3 times a day, and has requested Darth Vader sneakers. Even Ivy has gotten into the spirit and has added Jedi, Death Star, and Obi-Wan Kenobi to her reading vocabulary. A must have collection for any Star Wars fan.

Supertruck

Supertruck by  is a simple book about something that all of Massachusetts is dealing with right now: what to do with all of the excess snow! We are introduced to all the heroic trucks - the firetruck, the tow truck, etc. The book glosses over the slightly nerdy garbage truck with glasses until one night when a huge storm hits the city. All the vehicles are left wondering who the superhero truck was who plowed out the city. It couldn't possible be the nerdy garbage truck who disappears into a garage in the middle of the storm, now could it? Ivy and Atticus both adore this simple book.
