I like walking by our new picture books and finding one that sticks out to me to read. Together by Emma Dodd captured my eye with it's shiny cover use of foil accents. Dodd once again puts together a great picture book!
Summary: This little sea otter loves spending time with his parent--learning new things, playing together, or even just holding each other. In fact, every day this little sea otter spends with his parent is special, just because they are together.
Age Range: 2-5 years
"We played and laughed together as the sun shone in the sky."
The cover's illustration is so sweet with a parent otter and baby otter holding each other. Not only is this a touching message of the bond between a parent and their child, but shows how it can be more than enough to spend time together in nature. It was a delight to see the silver shininess that was used throughout the book that kids will sure love too.
I also liked how the adult otter wasn't labeled as a mom or dad because by doing so it adds more to it and can be used for both a Mother's Day or Father's Day storytime.
The rhyming text added to this great picture book!
