Books like Facts vs. Opinions vs. Robots
By Michael Rex
For the kid who argues that their opinion is definitely, actually true, this book gives them the words to sort out what's provable from what's just a feeling. Playful, clear-headed, a little silly with a room full of robots making the case.
A crew of silly robots builds the alphabet letter by letter, each one clanking, beeping, and buzzing its way through the ABCs with plenty of goofy robot noises.
A unicorn expected to be glamorous and glittery wakes up on the wrong side of the bed and spends the whole day trying to force a smile as everything keeps going wrong.
A boy named Billy Bixbee finds a tiny dragon in his bedroom, but when his mom insists dragons don't exist, the ignored dragon just keeps growing bigger and bigger.
A collection of twenty original poems, each one paired with a different technique for performing it out loud — from tongue twisters to whispers to poems built for a whole class to shout together.
A cheerful, fact-filled tour of the skull turns something spooky into something worth celebrating, showing every person and animal you know is carrying one around under their skin.
A private-eye detective takes on a numerical mystery: word on the street says 7 ate 9, and if that's true, a nervous 6 might be next on the menu.
A laid-back cat wears his favorite shirt with four groovy buttons, and one by one they keep popping off — but instead of crying, he just keeps singing his groovy song.
A rascally cat named Slinky Malinki turns into a nighttime thief, sneaking off to steal all sorts of things — until morning arrives and crime doesn't pay.
A rhetorical-question guide to good manners drops young readers into absurd scenarios — bumping into a crocodile downtown, meeting a baby elephant, eating spaghetti with the Queen — asking each time, what do you say, dear?
When the bus driver steps away and puts a young reader in charge, a persistent pigeon begs, bargains, and pleads for one thing: a turn behind the wheel.
A tour through the animal kingdom shows that elephants make big poops, mice make tiny ones, and every creature — including your child — poops too.
Two unseen voices look at the same picture and argue back and forth — one insists it's a duck, the other swears it's a rabbit — and neither one budges.
