November is Picture Book Month

“Reading brings us unknown friends.”

~Honoré De Balzac

November is Picture Book Month, a tribute to the enduring importance of the picture book. Picture books help develop story sense, and they are a great way for an adult and a child to bond over a book. Recently, our bookseller Andrea has become enamored with picture books and has read one every time she works. Although she doesn't have kids of her own, she loves their positive messaging and beautiful artwork.

She especially liked these twelve recent selections.
