I read Mr. Pete, Where Are Your Feet?, in exchange for honest review. The book was written by Katherine Bartlett and illustrated by Abira D.  The book is a children's book. The book was a quick read and my youngest enjoyed the book. He enjoyed pointing at the pictures of the birds in their cages.

The illustrations are also wonderful. The book is about Mr. Pete and his parakeet and other bird friends. Mr. Pete has a problem. He thinks he is missing a few of his toes and he goes on an adventure to find them. At the end of the book, he learns a valuable lesson.

Kids will learn about the names of birds. They will also learn to love themselves, despite their differences.

Big Blue by Vanita Oelschlager

I read Big Blue by Vanita Oelschlager, in exchange for review from Netgalley.com. The book was published by Vanita Books, LLC. The book was colorful and each page rhymed. The story was a about a blue bird, who rather eat and sleep, and not work. Kind of the reverse of Little Red Hen. She worked all day and got mad at the lazy folks. Big Blue was lazy all day, got fat, and couldn't fly south for the winter. He eventually got un-lazy and changed in the end. The book was decent, captured the kids attention. The book teaches kids that laziness is no good, while working is very good. I wish the bird had more support and encouragement from his friends, while he was being lazy. He also needed support once he changed to make sure he did not revert to his old ways.
