It's about an escalating back-and-forth between kids (Karen the Rabbit and her friends) building ever-more-elaborate sandcastles in the sandbox and other kids coming in to bully them and knock the structures down. The heavy machinery doesn't arrive until at least the fourth iteration...<br /><br />Eventually everyone ends up with a new theme park.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07837014618062351546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26522703.post-34202782867338504982016-12-17T22:04:28.086-05:002016-12-17T22:04:28.086-05:00Thanks, Krista!

A fascinating thing about the race car book is that while she's ahead early on, Maisy doesn't actually win her race, and she's fine with that. (Her passenger Black Cat gets some pretty grumpy expressions, though, at least until the ice cream shows up.)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07837014618062351546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26522703.post-73363951361561180702016-10-19T20:18:42.041-04:002016-10-19T20:18:42.041-04:00I nominate "The Best Part of Daddy's Day&...I nominate "The Best Part of Daddy's Day" by Claire Alexander for a place on future lists of this type. The characters are anthropomorphic dogs: a father and his androgynous offspring. The story opens with "My name is Bertie, and my daddy is a builder. He drives diggers and trucks every day! Today he's going to go up in his crane and build a tall tower. When I'm big, I want to be a builder just like him..." I like that it shows the father doing a lot of caregiving, in addition to working; he appears to be a single father.Kristanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26522703.post-7382059938660850802016-09-26T18:41:58.401-04:002016-09-26T18:41:58.401-04:00That was a journey down memory lane.
