I'm not particularly celebrity-minded, so I can't say I usually get book recommendations from celebrity sources. And I honestly don't even remember where I saw the interview in which @kristenanniebell said that "Quackenstein Hatches a Family" (2010) was her kids' favourite book. But boy am I glad that I paid attention this once! I was already a fan of author Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen, and combined with the hilarious illustrations of Brian T. Jones, her story of a cantankerous duck who goes looking to adopt himself some family, suffers a temporary setback when parenthood is not exactly what he expects, and then comes to embrace that unexpected wonder of chosen family, is about as wonderful a storybook as I've ever enjoyed. Prepare to laugh, gasp, ooh and aah your way through a family story to remember! ⚫ ⚫ ⚫ #noodlenutskidsbooks #quackensteinhatchesafamily #quackenstein #sudiptabardhanquallen #briantjones #adoption #adoptionrocks #adoptionislove #adoptionstory #adoptionisbeautiful #chosenfamily #foundfamily #familybychoice #family #platypus #socialemotionallearning #emotionalliteracy #schoollibrarian https://www.instagram.com/p/B76lVgZHRbv/?igshid=1nrba7xp1oi9c

I really hadn't felt all that inspired to share any specifically "back to school" books recently, despite the time of year. Nothing was really wowing me ... until I opened up "Tyrannosaurus Wrecks" (2014). And then? WOW! I was already a big fan of Zachariah Ohora's stark, brightly coloured art style, which is so perfect for young kids. But author Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen has hit every right note with this story! From tearing up the preschool with his excited aggression to trying to do better...and not always getting it right immediately, she does a gorgeous job of showing what it's like to be a preschooler with good intentions, big emotions, and not a lot of self-control. And I LOVED the classmates' response of forgiveness but also modeling better behaviour to help their friend. Complete with pronunciation guide for the dinosaurs' names, this is a fantastic back-to-school book! ⚫ ⚫ ⚫ #noodlenutskidsbooks #bookstagraminthe6ix #tyrannosauruswrecks #sudiptabardhanquallen #zachariahohora #abramsbooks #backtoschool #preschool #socialemotionallearning #socialemotionaldevelopment #socialemotional #behavior #behaviour #classroombehavior #nursery #kindergarten #emotionalliteracy #teachingsocialskills #socialskills #socialliteracy #friendship #makingfriends #readingtogether #readingtotoddlers #picturebookillustration #picturebooksofinstagram #childrensbookstagram #childrensbookart #raisingkindkids #raisingkindhumans https://www.instagram.com/p/B2ScUhDnz-T/?igshid=1kv3nzphjh035
