This bilingual board book is about the five little monkeys with apparently nothing to do. As I'm sure you can guess, they get into a little trouble. Most interesting to me though, is how she made the dust. By using the contents of her pencil sharpener! How smart.

As any parent with young kids knows, Max and Ruby are bunnies. In this story, they're visited by the Easter Bunny, which I first thought was an older version of Max. Turns out the Easter Bunny leaves marshmallow chicks behind (as in Peeps). Is that a subtle reference to chickens laying eggs and the Easter Bunny leaving humans eggs? I don't know, but the story was pretty straight forward. And enjoyable. Just be careful of that last page, it's a little tricky.

Wonderful artwork and poetry. I didn't read this particular story so I can't tell you much about it. But I vaguely recall reading a previous Danitra book and it was good. Poetry isn't really my favorite thing, but it was still a decent read.
During Storytime, Library Gary and Elizabeth also worked on a craft. In the photo at the top, you'll see a cherry tree made with popcorn.
