Sometimes you know someone who’s graduating from something — high school, college, whatever — and you want to give them something. For this, I’m a fan of picture books, and though You are Ready is here, I’m also a huge fan of The Bear and the Piano, and Amy Dyckman’s new book, That’s Life! is another great one. Why not a book?
You are Ready! The World is Waiting by Eric Carle and That’s Life by Ame Dyckman and Cori Doerrfeld
This is a rhyming book I can love.
This is a book about growing up, making mistakes, and succeeding which I am oh-so-happy to share.
This is a book that will make adults smile and kids smile.
Also there is cake.
And Katherine Applegate. (And illustrations by Jennifer Black Reinhardt.)
So, you know, it’s great.
It’s a new favorite as a graduation gift, but also take a look at The Bear and the Piano by David Litchfield if you are looking for something fun to give someone wearing a funny hat.
Sometimes You Fly by Katherine Applegate and Jennifer Black Reinhardt.
