Gr. 1^-2. A perfect topic for an easy reader--a child's first loose tooth. A young girl with a wobbly, wiggly, jiggly tooth worries about where it might fall out, but once she has that big-kid hole in her mouth, she's as proud as can be. A pithy text and nice big illustrations outlined in black make this very accessible to the intended audience. Ilene Cooper

Book Review
"You know, Toad," said Frog with his mouth full, "I think we should stop eating. We will soon be sick." "You are right," said Toad. "Let us eat one last cookie, and then we will stop." Many "last cookies" later, Frog and Toad come up with an ingenious solution to their uncontrolled cookie consumption.

This pair of amphibian pals likes to do everything together, from list making to flower growing to dragon vanquishing. And when Toad bakes cookies one day, the two try to develop willpower together. The Frog and Toad series, including Frog and Toad Are Friends, Frog and Toad All Year, and Days with Frog and Toad, is perfect for new readers.

Book Review
Who needs words to tell a story? In Raymond Briggs's charming tale, told with 175 softly hued, artfully composed frames, a little boy makes friends with a snowman. He wakes up on a snowy day, tells his mother he's going outside, then begins a flurry of snowman-building. That night, he can't sleep, so he opens the front door and lo! the snowman has come to life. The amiable yet frosty fellow enjoys his tour of the boy's cozy home; he admires the cat, but is disturbed by the fire. The boy shows him other wonders--the TV and a lamp and running water. Predictably perhaps, he is disturbed by the stove, but likes ice cubes quite a bit. Soon it is the snowman's turn to introduce the boy to his wintry world. They join hands, rise up into the blizzardy air--presumably over Russia and into the Middle East--and then safely back to home...

Review
'There's a lot for most of us to learn from this book, and it opens up fascinating insights into ancient thought and culture.' European Journal of Theology

Book Description
Peter Bolt explores the impact of Mark's Gospel on early readers in the first-century Graeco-Roman world. Focusing upon the thirteen characters in Mark who come to Jesus for healing or exorcism, Bolt analyzes their crucial role in the communication of the Gospel. Enlisting a variety of ancient literary and non-literary sources, this book recreates the first-century world of illness, magic and Roman imperialism. This new approach to Mark combines reader-response criticism with social history.

From Publishers Weekly
This entry in the Step into Reading series is so appropriately simple--and suitably silly--that youngsters will be reading right along before they even realize it. The book's whimsical cover sets just the right tone: a bug-eyed, polka-dot-clad toad proud as punch behind the wheel of a vivid red "bug"--license plate T1. Continuing the fun, the frisky, rhymed text makes the reader's task that much easier--what's not to like about "Seat belt on? / Here we go! / Not too fast, not too slow"? Lively and colorful, the illustrations of Toad's madcap outing offer unexpected delights, as the car zips by a monster truck here, a Victorian manse there. Whether whizzing through a car wash, fixing a flat tire or stopping for lunch ("Sip and slurp. / Chew and munch"), this vivacious animal cast will help to make one of...

Book Review
Frog and Toad agreed: it was a perfect day for a swim. And Frog was kind enough not to look at Toad in his bathing suit, per Toad's request. But when the swimming was over, a crowd had gathered to see Toad in his funny-looking suit, and neither Frog nor Toad could make them leave.

The endearing pair hop along through five enchanting stories, looking for lost buttons, greeting the spring, and waiting for mail. Their genuine care for each other makes Frog and Toad two of the finest amphibious role models around. Young readers will chuckle with Frog as they watch Toad's silly efforts to make up a story. And they will applaud Toad as he finally wakes up after hibernating all winter. The fifth story will warm the hearts of any would-be pen pal--or anyone who has ever known what it's like to have a true-blue (or green)...
